 ACE or angiotensin-converting enzyme “Elevated ACE indicates the same as the 1,25-D and therefore adds nothing to the interpretation, except an increased level of confidence. On the other hand, if ACE is normal (as so many are), the ACE gives a decreased level of confidence. Nevertheless, if cost is not a factor, I always like to see as much data as I can.” Dr. Trevor Marshall, PhD  ACE or angiotensin-converting enzyme “Elevated ACE indicates the same as the 1,25-D and therefore adds nothing to the interpretation, except an increased level of confidence.
