A secondary aim will be to determine the variation in frequency of normal labs between subgroups of patients (disease type, age at diagnosis, race, ethnicity, gender, etc.).

Primary Outcome: The proportion of patients with normal laboratory findings at diagnosis, prior to initiating medical therapy.
