The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between 4- and 24-hour urine total protein values to examin...
متن کاملComparison of spot urine protein creatinine ratio with 24 hour urine protein for estimation of proteinuria.
The objective of our study was to evaluate and standardise the method of spot (random) urine protein creatinine ratio (UP/C) for estimation of proteinuria. The study contained 241 study participants in a tertiary care hospital inclusive of 208 cases and 33 normal volunteers. The 24 hour urine protein estimation was done on 24 hour urine samples and UP/C ratio was calculated on random urine samp...
