Urinary glutamine

Glutamate can cause retinal cell necrosis, and glutamate produces glutamine into the blood under the action of glutamate dehydrogenase. With the increase of concentration, it can expand brain tissue, especially after a large amount of glutamate (acid) release, activate glutamate receptors, cause persistent polarization of excitatory neurons, interfere with neuronal regulation mechanism, lead to ion osmotic pressure and electrochemical change. Therefore, the determination of urine glutamate concentration can also predict hepatic coma independently and early. Basic Information Specialist classification: growth and development check classification: urine / kidney function test Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: fasting Analysis results: Below normal: Gout patients. Normal value: Urinary glutamine: 61-205mg/24h Above normal: Hana patients. negative: Positive: Tips: Do not exercise vigorously, maintain normal diet and rest. The middle part of the urine is taken for inspection. Women in the menstrual period, cold patients are not suitable for this examination. Normal value Adult 61 ~ 205mg / 24h (usually used). 417 ~ 1402 μmol / 24h (statutory). Clinical significance Some patients with hepatic coma, Reye syndrome, meningitis, cerebral hemorrhage, and hyperammonemia type I and II, hyperlysineemia have elevated serum glutamine. Increased urinary glutamine in patients with Hana disease; Glutamine in urine is decreased in patients with gout. Low results may be diseases: high meningitis results may be disease: gout precautions Before the test: Do not exercise vigorously, maintain normal diet and rest. At the time of examination: a part of the urine is discharged first to wash away the bacteria remaining in the urethra and the anterior urethra, and then the middle part of the urine is taken for examination. Inspection process The urine of the subject is collected and detected by chemical methods. Not suitable for the crowd Not suitable for the crowd: women in the menstrual period, cold patients. Adverse reactions and risks No.
