Objective: To investigate the use of silica hydride-based HPLC columns operating in aqueous normal phase mode to retain and separate uric acid from its metabolites in both reference standard solutions and urine samples. Method: LC-MS instrumentation operating in positive ion mode was used for the ...
Control group received a low-purine diet, alkalized urine (sodium bicarbonate tablets), reduced uric acid (allopurinol or febuxosta), and reduced blood pressure (except angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor, ACEI), angiotensin II receptor antagonist (ARB) and diuretics, control of underlying ...
Creatinine clearance, uric acid clearance, 24-hour uric acid urinary excretion, fractional excretion of uric acid, excretion of uric acid per volume of glomerular filtration, urinary uric acid to creatinine ratio, and glomerular uric acid filtered load were calculated using 24-hour urine samples. ...
To investigate the neuroendocrine mechanism(s) by which PRATA suppresses high BP, we focused on catecholamine metabolism. We found that PRATA did not affect serum levels of epinephrine, norepinephrine and dopamine (Supplementary Fig.4a–c), urine catecholamines and related metabolites in both SHRs an...

(HR = 1.30 and p < 0.001 for higher serum creatinine; HR = 0.97 and p < 0.001 for higher eGFR; HR = 1.06 and p < 0.001 for urine PCR), C3 ≤ 93.4 mg/dl (HR = 2.15, p = 0.017), NLR > 3.34 (HR = 3.30, p < ...
Diabetes mellitus type 2.In some, but not all, studies, high-protein diet was associated with increased risk of diabetes 2[136,139]. Osteoporosis.A high-protein diet results in increased calcium excretion in urine, but it does not likely increases the risk of osteoporosis (low bone density)...
Salicylic AcidSalicyluric AcidAnalysisBiological FluidsHigh Pressure Liquid ChromatographyA sensitive, rapid, and specific high pressure liquid chromatographic (HPLC) assay was developed for the determination of salicylic (SA) and salicyluric (SU) acids in plasma and urine. The compounds are extracted ...
(increased pressure around your brain due to fluid buildup in your skull). These drugs reduce the activity of an enzyme in the kidneys calledcarbonic anhydrase. They prevent the reabsorption of bicarbonate, making the urine more alkaline (basic). Too much bicarbonate in the body leads to many...
and painful joints. The enzyme that helps create uric acid (xanthine oxidase) is also turned on by reactive oxygen species during hypoxia. This then causes further uric acid crystal deposition in our body. This can present in patients from adolescent years through adulthood, ranging from fleeting...
