  "summary_plain": "Bilirubin is a yellow chemical that builds up when the body cannot clear it, and too much of it causes jaundice. A baby's level can be measured with a blood test or estimated through the skin with a meter.",
  "summary_technical": "MedlinePlus describes bilirubin as a yellow chemical from the breakdown of haemoglobin and lists the bilirubin blood test. The US-cleared JM-105 skin meter gives a reading that should be confirmed by a blood test (serum bilirubin) before treatment decisions. No interpretation thresholds are recorded here; a 2022 US paediatrics guideline is listed as an identity-only reference.",
