CPE-009 · synthetic case B12-FX-25
MMA 0.41 with B12 450 and an eGFR of 38
Kidney function raises MMA.
Purpose: Kidney function raises MMA.
Inputs the engine received
Laboratory
- Serum vitamin B12
- 450 pg/mL
- Methylmalonic acid
- 0.41 µmol/L
- eGFR
- 38 mL/min/1.73 m²

What the engine reports
Detected clinical pattern
B12 Not Low on the Value Entered
Serum B12 is above 300 pg/mL. If suspicion remains (neurologic features, nitrous oxide), methylmalonic acid can still be informative.
- B12 level: B12 450 pg/mL · above 300
Differentials, pitfalls and contradicting signals
- MMA 0.41 µmol/L is raised despite a serum B12 above 300 pg/mL: consider reduced kidney function (eGFR 38) and other causes before attributing it to B12.
