Asymptomatic microscopical haematuria.

Asymptomatic proteinuria and/or haematuria in 265 Malaysian adults.

Two-hundred and sixty-five patients with asymptomatic proteinuria and/or haematuria were studied at the Department of Medicine, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia and Department of Nephrology, General Hospital Kuala Lumpur.

Asymptomatic isolated microscopic haematuria: long-term follow-up.

BACKGROUND Evidence to support current diagnostic and management approaches to asymptomatic haematuria is lacking and based on short-term clinical observation. AIM To ascertain the natural history and long-term outcome of asymptomatic and isolated haematuria, and to determine the clinical correlates of adverse renal events.

Thus mast cells and histamine are to be found everywhere in the normal bladder wal...

Adenovirus associated haematuria.

Adenovirus is a common respiratory virus in children and is known to cause acute haemorrhagic cystitis, particularly in the immunosuppressed. In immunocompetent children with adenoviral infection the incidence of haematuria was 18.6%, with 2.4% of these children having macroscopic haematuria and upper tract involvement.
