The 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.".

15 صفحه اولA 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 کاملCase of Diabetes Mellitus with Very Low Specific Gravity
On 31st August 1897, a woman, Puma by name, of the barber caste, between 30 and 40 years of age, came to me on account of blindness.
