Left-sided varicoceles in adults are distinct from those in adolescents. In adults, reflux is likely to be induced via collateral pathways, whereas in adolescents congenital venous abnormalities are predominantly present. The higher prevalence and the greater diameter of a right insufficient ISV in adults, combined with the absence of venous anatom...

To identify patients presenting with isolated hematuria and/or pyuria in the absence of other systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) disease activity, describe their demographics, and determine whether they present with evidence of SLE flare in a period adjacent to the presentation. We studied patients followed at the University of Toronto Lupus Clinic...

Urine may be a waste product, but it contains an enormous amount of information. Well-standardized procedures for collection, transport, sample preparation and analysis should become the basis of an effective diagnostic strategy for urinalysis. As reproducibility of urinalysis has been greatly improved due to recent technological progress, preanaly...

Tubular proteinuria, caused by the use of statins, can be distinguished from glomerular proteinuria by a higher urinary α1-microglobulin/albumin ratio.

The study aimed to evaluate the effect of exercise on urine sediment in adolescent soccer players. In 25 15-year-old (range 14.4-15.8 yrs) athletes, urinary protein, osmolality and cytology were analyzed by flow cytometry and automated dipstick analysis before (T-0), during (T-1), and after a match (T-2). All athletes had normal urine analysis and ...

Aim: To demonstrate that the evaluation of erythrocyte dysmorphism by light microscopy with lowering of the condenser lens (LMLC) is useful to identify patients with a haematuria of glomerular or non-glomerular origin. Methods: A comparative double-blind study between phase contrast microscopy (PCM) and LMLC is reported to evaluate the efficacy of ...
