background: measuring the 24-hour urine protein ≥300 mg is the standard threshold value for diagnosis of preeclampsia. objective: this study was intended to determine if a patient’s 4-hour urine protein correlate with the 24-hour value for diagnosis of preeclampsia. materials and methods: this was a cross sectional study performed on 84 women with suspected preeclampsia due to positive urinary ...

1. The biliary excretion of injected [(14)C]aniline, [(14)C]benzoic acid, 4-amino-hippuric acid and 4-acetamidohippuric acid in six or eight species of animal (rat, dog, hen, cat, rabbit, guinea pig, rhesus monkey and sheep) was studied. 2. These compounds, with molecular weights in the range 93-236, are poorly excreted in the bile in all the species examined and, in effect, there is little sig...

objective(s): the object of the study is to examine the effects of δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (thc) against oxidative stress in the blood and excretion of thc metabolites in urine of type 2 diabetic rats. materials and methods: the control (n=8), thc control (n=6), diabetes (n=8) and diabetes + thc (n=7) groups were created. type 2 diabetes was induced by nicotinamide (na, 85 mg/kg) + streptozotoc...

It is well established that renal acid excretion can be influenced by certain tubular mechanisms that operate independently of systemic acid-base equilibrium. Thus, the stimulus for sodium reabsorption (1, 2), the competition between potassium and hydrogen ions for secretion (3), and the penetrating ability of anions present in the glomerular filtrate (4-6) are factors known to affect acid excr...
