Urine catecholamines in paediatrics.
INTRODUCTION In paediatric clinical practice, tests for urinary catecholamines and their metabolites are most often requested to aid in the diagnosis and follow-up of patients with neural crest tumours, particularly neuroblastomas. Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumour in children. Each year 80–90 new patients are diagnosed in the UK, most of them infants or toddlers. Neuro...
متن کاملThe estimation of catecholamines in urine by a chemical method.
The estimation of urinary catecholamines has assumed clinical significance mainly because of its value in the diagnosis of phaeochromocytoma (Engel and Euler, 1950; Euler, 1951). Since biological methods have obvious limitations for routine work, various chemical methods have been developed (Lund, 1950; Pekkarinen and Pitkanen, 1955; Euler and Floding, 1955a, b). They are based on the same prin...

متن کاملPlasma and Urine Catecholamines, Metabolic Enzymes, and Chromogranin-A
Background. Because acute exercise increases systemic catecholamines, we sought to determine whether exercise training would alter daily or exercise-related catecholamine release and inactivation. Methods and Results. In 24-hour urine collections, catecholamines and metabolites provided indexes of overall oxidative deamination, sulfation, and O-methylation. Plasma catecholamines, the sulfoconju...
