Renal glycosuria is a rare condition in which the simple sugar glucose is excreted in the urine [1] despite normal or low blood glucose levels. With normal kidney (renal) function, glucose is excreted in the urine only when there are abnormally elevated levels of glucose in the blood.
Olfactory hallucination can be considered the result of the belief in an odor delusion, or the belief a result of the olfactory hallucination. [1] In one review, the individual with ORS was unreservedly convinced that he or she could detect the odor themselves in 22% of cases, whilst in 19% there was occasional or intermittent detection and in ...
In a study by Wise PM, [4] of 115 positively identified TMAU subjects, after a choline challenge load test (intentionally ingesting a TMA precursor) only 10% expressed a smell at a social distance. When in a fasted state (12 hours) 0% had a smell detectable at a social distance and only 5% had some minor malodour at an intimate distance.
Glycosuria leads to excessive water loss into the urine with resultant dehydration, a process called osmotic diuresis. Alimentary glycosuria is a temporary condition, when a high amount of carbohydrate is taken, it is rapidly absorbed in some cases where a part of the stomach is surgically removed, the excessive glucose appears in urine ...

Urine culture is quantitative and very reliable, but can take at least one day to obtain a result and it is expensive. [ 8 ] [ 14 ] Miniaturization of bacterial culture within dipstick format, Digital Dipstick, [ 15 ] allows bacterial detection, identification and quantification for bacteriuria within 10–12 hours at the point-of-care .
Myoglobinuria is the presence of myoglobin in the urine, which usually results from rhabdomyolysis or muscle injury. [1] Myoglobin is present in muscle cells as a reserve of oxygen . Signs and symptoms
LOINC applies universal code names and identifiers to medical terminology related to electronic health records. The purpose is to assist in the electronic exchange and gathering of clinical results (such as laboratory tests, clinical observations, outcomes management and research). LOINC has two main parts: laboratory LOINC and clinical LOINC.
