Additional file 1: of Urogenital schistosomiasis elimination in Zanzibar: accuracy of urine filtration and haematuria reagent strips for diagnosing light intensity Schistosoma haematobium infections

, 2018
Predicted sensitivity of reagent strips by infection intensity estimated by urine filtration. The sensitivity of the reagent strip method to detect microhaematuria increased significantly for each unit log10 egg count per 10 ml urine in children (odds ...

Lactobacillus derived small RNAs protect against Klebsiella pneumoniae infection

iMeta, EarlyView.
This study reveals that plant‐derived natural products confer protection against carbapenem‐resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) infection via remodeling the gut microbiota, with Lactobacillus identified as the core beneficial genus. Mechanistically, Lactobacillus murinus (L.

[Urinary specific gravity--comparative measurements using reagent strips and refractometer in 340 morning urine samples]

, 1993
The specific gravity of urine (SG) indicates the number and weight of solute particles in urine; its measurement is helpful in interpreting proteinuria detected by dipstick tests and in monitoring adequate hydration in patients with nephrolithiasis. Four

Discrepant Urinary Findings Between Dipstick Protein and Sulfosalicylic Acid Test in a Patient With Hyaline Casts: A Case Report

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
In this post‐transplant patient, increased hyaline casts with negative dipstick protein but positive SSA testing occurred during evolving acute kidney injury and resolved with renal recovery. This discordant urinalysis pattern may warrant confirmatory protein testing and correlation with serial renal function in patients at high risk of AKI.

Functional Roles of Adenosine A2B and A3 Receptor Subtypes in the Bladder of Male Rats With A2B Receptor Deletion or Bladder Outlet Obstruction

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To investigate the adenosine receptor (AR) mechanism underlying bladder outlet obstruction (BOO)‐related bladder dysfunction, we examined the expression level of AR subtypes in bladder tissues, and the effects of AR subtypes A2B & A3 modulation on bladder activity using male BOO rats, and Dahl rats with A2B receptor deletion.

Urinary Soluble Collagen Levels Are Associated With Moderate/Severe LUTS

The Prostate, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Expansion of the stromal compartment of the prostate concurrent with fibroblast activation and increased collagenization is now recognized as a pathobiology likely contributing to Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS). However, approaches to quantitatively and, ideally, non‐invasively, assess prostatic collagenization in vivo are not ...

Notoginsenoside R2 Antagonizes Renal Interstitial Fibrosis by Regulating Fatty Acid Oxidation via the CASP2/ALDH3A1 Axis

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Proposed mechanism by which notoginsenoside R2 (NGR2) attenuates renal interstitial fibrosis. In injured renal tubular epithelial cells, CASP2 downregulation and enhanced ubiquitin‐dependent degradation of ALDH3A1 disrupt mitochondria‐associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes (MAMs) and impair fatty acid oxidation (FAO), leading to lipid accumulation ...
