A discrepant urine specific gravity.
A 21-year-old man presented after being struck by a car and underwent a computed tomography scan of the chest and spine. Three hours later, his clear yellow urine sample was sent to the laboratory. A routine urinalysis with the Roche Urisys® 2400 indicated the specific gravity (SG) as a flag, i.e., an error for SG. A manual repeat of the SG measurement was also not readable by refractometer (no...
متن کاملDipstick measurements of urine specific gravity
Aim—To evaluate the reliability of dipstick measurements of urine specific gravity (U-SG). Methods—Fresh urine specimens were tested for urine pH and osmolality (U-pH, U-Osm) by a pH meter and an osmometer, and for U-SG by three diVerent methods (refractometry, automatic readout of a dipstick (Clinitek-50), and (visual) change of colour of the dipstick). Results—The correlations between the vis...
متن کاملLow specific gravity syndrome.
Data strongly suggestthat the longer patients have been treated in New Castle State Hospital, the higher the probability that they will demonstrate the low specific gravity syndrome. It is believed that a probably unrecognized alteration in human water metabolism among institutionalized patients who have chronic, severe epilepsy and who have been administered anticonvulsant drugs for many years...
متن کاملNote on Non-metric Gravity
We discuss a class of alternative gravity theories that are specific to four dimensions, do not introduce new degrees of freedom, and come with a physical motivation. In particular we sketch their Hamiltonian formulation, and their relation with some earlier constructions. Email address: [email protected]. Supported by VR.
متن کاملThe Specific Gravity of the Urine in Diabetes Mellitus
or 1045." Again, we are told by another -writer that in diagnosing a case of diabetes " the density of diabetic urine, however, is one of the best indications. This fluid varies in density from 1030 to 1074 (Becquerel); but, on an average and tolerably constantly, it is 1040; and when the urinometer stands above 1030, we may suspect that sugar is present.". (Aitken's Science and Practice of Med...
