glycosuria/albumin

Glycosuria is a condition where glucose is detected in urine at higher concentrations than normal (i.e. not detectable). Glycosuria at some point during pregnancy has an estimated prevalence of 50% and is associated with adverse outcomes in both mothers and offspring. Little is currently known about

Alteration in transcapillary albumin escape rate (TERalb) is an indicator of changes in macromolecular movement at the capillary filtering bed, which can change the balance of Starling forces for fluid movement from the vasculature to the interstitium and has an impact on volume homeostasis. TERalb

Transient or persistent renal glycosuria may occur in patients with the nephrotic syndrome. In an attempt to elucidate its mechanism, glucose titration experiments were performed in 20 nephrotic patients. The type A titration curve was found in one and type B in four patients with severe organic

There are doubts about the presence of glycosuria and the progress of glomerular disease. Some reports suggest that glycosuria could be an index of a more severe tubulointerstitial lesion. We investigated the presence of glycosuria in 60 patients with primary glomerular diseases: 17 patients (28%)

For millennia, the syndrome that has become known as diabetes was considered to be primarily a disease of the urinary system and, by association, of dysfunction in the kidneys (recognized as the source of urine). In the last decade, there has been renewed interest in the role of the kidneys in the

BACKGROUND Urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR) in a single urine sample has been proposed to provide an estimate of microalbuminuria by adjusting for variability in urine concentrations. We hypothesized that adjusting the urine albumin concentration of single-void specimens for actual urine

Endogenous albumin was revealed with high resolution in the glomerular wall of renal tissue from normoglycaemic and long-term streptozotocin-induced hyperglycaemic rats applying the protein A-gold immunocytochemical approach. In tissues from normal animals, albumin antigenic sites were detected at

We reported previously that overexpression of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein F (Hnrnpf) in renal proximal tubular cells (RPTCs) suppresses angiotensinogen (Agt) expression, and attenuates systemic hypertension and renal injury in diabetic Hnrnpf-transgenic (Tg) mice. We thus hypothesized

Sustained high glucose impairs bone metabolism in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In this study, the relationship between glycemic control and bone metabolism was examined in male hemodialysis (HD) patients with T2DM. To avoid the effect of menstruation and the menstrual cycle,

The clinical goal of diabetes management is a good quality of life that is not different from that of a healthy subjects. To fulfill the goal, prevention of complications is needed under good glycemic control. Although blood glucose measurement is essential for glycemic control, there are diurnal

UNASSIGNED Hyperglycaemia impairs tubulo-glomerular feedback. We tested whether variable tubulo-glomerular feedback during hyperglycaemia contributes to renal risk heterogeneity seen in Type 1 diabetes. UNASSIGNED During the period 1990-92, we studied the tubulo-glomerular feedback in Type 1

A 9-year-old boy with petechiae on the legs and abdominal pain was unsuccessfully treated with steroids. He was admitted to our hospital for the onset of fever, ecchymosis, and arthralgia. Skin lesions suggested vasculitis, but they were not typical of Henoch-Schönlein purpura. He showed ecchymosis

A mesangial glomerulonephropathy, characterized by the deposition of rat IgG, IgM, and C3 in the glomerular mesangium, was produced in Wistar rats by a prolonged administration of mercuric chloride (HgCl2). The HgCl2 was dissolved in sterile distilled water (0.2 mg. per ml.), and a group of 15 male

OBJECTIVE Sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) is the main luminal glucose transporter in the kidney. SGLT2 inhibition results in glycosuria and improved glycaemic control. Drugs inhibiting this transporter have recently been approved for clinical use and have been suggested to have potential

The study comprised 24 patients with ages between 5 months and 13 years and fever from different extrarenal infectious diseases. Seventy-nine samples of urine were taken to determine proteins, glucose, ketone, hemoglobine and study of the urinary sediment. Electrophoresis of proteins was practiced
