Why does the plasma urea concentration increase in acute dehydration?
Acute dehydration biochemically manifests itself with mild uremia and a normal creatinine concentration. The reason for this, as quoted in popular medical textbooks, is that there is increased reabsorption of urea by the kidneys (1). This explanation is rarely taken further by clinical tutors or lectures on laboratory medicine. However, an appreciation of the physiology of the renal tubules all...
متن کاملUrea transporters and sweat response to uremia
In humans, urea is excreted in sweat, largely through the eccrine sweat gland. The urea concentration in human sweat is elevated when compared to blood urea nitrogen. The sweat urea nitrogen (UN) of patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESRD) is increased when compared with healthy humans. The ability to produce sweat is maintained in the overwhelming majority of ESRD patients. A comprehensiv...
متن کاملHigh plasma urea concentration in babies with lamellar ichthyosis.
Sir, Guiscafre et al have reported two cases of meningitis due to Haemophilus influenzae type b tesistant to ampicillin and chloramphenicol.' In their report they say 'since 1980 eight cases of meningitis. have been reported'. This is not true. In previous reports we have drawn attention to the explosive increase of multiply resistant strains of H. influenzae type b causing invasive and non-inv...
متن کاملUrea and the clinical value of measuring blood urea concentration
Urea is the principal nitrogenous waste product of metabolism and is generated from protein breakdown. It is eliminated from the body almost exclusively by the kidneys in urine, and measurement of its concentration, first in urine and later in blood, has had clinical application in the assessment of kidney (renal) function for well over 150 years. This is the first of two articles that together...
متن کاملConcentration gradient electrophoresis of plasma from patients with hyperbetalipoproteinemia.
A modification of the Pratt and Dangerfield technique of acrylamide gel concentration gradient electrophoresis has been used to study low density lipoproteins from fasting human beings. Prestained plasma from normal subjects and from patients with Fredrickson's type II hyperbetalipoproteinemia was electrophoresed in continuous gradient gel columns (approximately 3.5-8%). Reproducible low densit...
