|
|
Term
| Selected abnormal constituents of urine: albumin |
|
Definition
| albuminuria (excess albumin in urine) is from an increase in filtration membrane permeability caused by high blood pressure, kidney trauma, disease, or inflammation; trace amouns of albumin in urine is normal. |
|
|
Term
| Selected abnormal constituents of urine: Ketone bodies |
|
Definition
| Ketonuria (ketone bodies in urine) is caused by a metobolic condition called ketosis; ketosis occurs when cells do not have enough glucose to completely break down fatty acids; ketosis can occur from starvation, low carbohydrate diets, or untreated diabetes mellitus. |
|
|
Term
| Selected abnormal constituents of urine: Casts |
|
Definition
| Casts are hardened clumps of material formed by protein precipition and/or cell agglutination within renal tubules; the following conditions may result in cast formation: albuminuria, abnormally acidic urine, and highly concentrated urine. |
|
|
Term
| Selected abnormal constituents of urine: Calcui |
|
Definition
| Calculi are insoluable salt crystals that can form anywhere within the kidney tubules, ureters, urinary bladder, or urethra; commonly called kidney stones, calculi can cause considerable pain as they pass through the lumens of urinary system organs. |
|
|
Term
