Spot urine porphyrins/creatinine ratio profile of healthy Brazilian individuals adjusted for personal habits.
Changes in urinary porphyrin excretion may be the result of hereditary causes and/or from environmental or occupational exposure. The objective of this study was to measure the amount of some porphyrins in spot urine samples obtained from volunteers randomly selected from a healthy adult population of São Paulo with a sensitive HPLC method and to estimate normal ranges for a non-exposed populat...
متن کاملSpot urine osmolality/creatinine ratio in healthy humans.
BACKGROUND Spot urine albumin/creatinine ratio is a reliable estimate of 24-hour urine albumin excretion. In a pilot study, we observed that the spot urine osmolality/creatinine ratio (U(osm)/U(cr)) in healthy adults is reproducible. Therefore, we postulated that U(osm)/U(cr) of a spot urine sample may give an overall estimate of urinary excretion of solutes, renal concentrating ability and bod...
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...

متن کاملArylsulfatase A pseudodeficiency in healthy Brazilian individuals.
Molecular alterations associated with arylsulfatase A pseudodeficiency (ASA-PD) were characterized by PCR and restriction endonuclease analysis in a sample of healthy individuals from Brazil. ASA activity was also assayed in all subjects. Two individuals homozygous for the N350S and 1524+95A<--G mutations were detected, corresponding to a frequency of 1.17% (4 of 324 alleles). The individual fr...
