Overview of the diagnostic assessment of polycythemia in patient 2

Erythropoietin concentration
Renal function assessment, including urine, blood, and ultrasound of urinary tract 
Spirometry 
Cardiac function assessment, including echocardiography and ECG 
Ultrasound of abdominal and pelvic organs for tumor detection 
Polysomnography 
Blood gas analyses, including estimation of Hb oxygen affinity and HbCO levels 
Sequence analyses of α-globin (HBA) genes, pyruvate kinase (PKLR), and bisphosphoglycerate mutase (BPGM
Integration site analysis of the therapeutic gene 
Mutational analysis of JAK2 and CALR 
Erythropoietin concentration
Renal function assessment, including urine, blood, and ultrasound of urinary tract 
Spirometry 
Cardiac function assessment, including echocardiography and ECG 
Ultrasound of abdominal and pelvic organs for tumor detection 
Polysomnography 
Blood gas analyses, including estimation of Hb oxygen affinity and HbCO levels 
Sequence analyses of α-globin (HBA) genes, pyruvate kinase (PKLR), and bisphosphoglycerate mutase (BPGM
Integration site analysis of the therapeutic gene 
Mutational analysis of JAK2 and CALR 

All of these investigations revealed normal results.

ECG, electrocardiogram; HbCO, carboxyhemoglobin.
