If one says that the clearance value of glucose is zero what does this mean?
Normally, all the glucose is reabsorbed
What does abnormal amounts of glucose in urine mean?
Usually diabetes...get it checked out quickly!
What does it mean if there is glucose in your urine?
This may mean you have diabetes. This could also be a sign of mutations in the SGLT2 Transporters in the Kidney, which means that you excrete glucose in your urine, losing calories which could be used elsewhere in the body in the process
What are clinistix and abustix?
Clinistix is a strip used to check glucose in the urine. Abustix? Do you mean Albustix? Albustix is for checking albumin in urine. Albumin is protein.
What does NVG mean on a glucose test?
No value given-you do not have to worry about it.
What explains the presence of the glucose in the urine?
Protein does occur naturally in the urine of humans. This is normally no more than 150mg per day. I am assuming you mean >150mg of protein per day. If someone has more than 150mg of protein in their urine per day it can mean several things: it can be a result of an infection, diabetes, kidney disease, medication side effect, and many, many more.
Can diabetes show up in a routine physical urine analysis?
Yes. Because glucose is not usually found in urine. But greater than normal levels of glucose don't necessarily mean the diabetes. It may be a sign of Glucose release from the kidneys into the urine (renal glycosuria) or pregnancy. If so, further testing is needed.More information is on Freetxno1.com.
What does it mean if a doctor finds glucose in human urine?
It means that the body isn't producing enough insulin to control glucose levels; the patient is probably diabetic.
What does it mean when a urine test states you have high urine content?
If you mean like high amount of urine: Polyuria. If you mean like high amount of particles inside the urine: High specific gravity = your urine may have high levels of glucose, protein, bilirubin, urobilinogen, or/and a lot of mucus, crystals, bacteria, and tissue/blood cells.
How do you know if you have sugar in your urine?
Most of the time it means that your body is producing to much sugar which can lead or even mean that you have diabetes. Call your doctor and get tested for this.
What does raised creatinine clearance mean?
Creatinine and creatinine clearance tests measure creatinine levels (the level of the waste product) in your blood and urine to give information about how well your kidneys are working. The substance creatine is formed when food is changed into energy through a process called metabolism. Creatine is broken down into another substance called creatinine, which is taken out of your blood by the kidneys and then passed out of your body in urine. Creatinine is made at a steady rate and is not affected by diet or by normal physical activities. If your kidneys are damaged and cannot work normally, the amount of creatinine in your urine goes down while its level in your blood goes up. The creatinine clearance value is found from the amounts of creatinine in the urine and blood and from the amount of urine you pass in 24 hours. This value is the amount of blood cleared of creatinine per minute, based on your body size.
Why would your family physician at the turn of the twentieth century taste your urine?
To see if it's sweet. This would mean there is insufficient glucose reabsorption by the kidney to the body. There will be excess glucose in the filtrate.
