URINARY AMYLASE / URINARY CREATININE RATIO (UAM/ UCR) - A LESS-INVASIVE PARAMETER FOR MANAGEMENT OF HYPERAMYLASEMIA

The serum level of amylase (sAm) is commonly used as a biochemical marker for diagnosis and management of pancreatic disorders. However, the use of the urine level of amylase (uAm) is limited in practice, because the diagnostic ability of uAm is inferior to that of sAm.

A clear cut relationship between measures of severity and measures of distress, bother and impact on HRQoL pre- operatively has not been determined. Several studies spe- cifically examined the relationship between severity of incontinence and UDI and IIQ scores, and while[r]

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the major causes of morbidity in cancer patients. The purpose of the present study is to analyse the cases of urinary tract infection and to study their antimicrobial susceptibility pattern. A prospective analysis of cancer patients in year 2016-2017 was carri[r]

Prospective trials have demonstrated the advantage of dose-escalated radiotherapy for the biochemical and clinical control of intermediate risk prostate cancer. Dose escalation improves outcomes but increases risks of urinary and bowel toxicity.

The water system of our hospital was colonized by L. pneumophila of different serogroups. Although various methods to control Legionella in water distribution sys- tems have been described in the literature (for example, methods based on physical or chemical treatments or both),[r]

Research efforts to understand GBS pathogenesis should focus on the different strains of GBS that cause distinct clinical conditions of UTI such as ABU and cystitis in order to analyse the virulence traits that are associated with these infections. How these infections progress to d[r]

Psoriasis is one of the most common chronic, life-long dermatologic diseases, which has considerable negative effects on quality of life. Psoriasis is considered as a systemic inflammatory disease, thus acute phase proteins such as C-reactive protein (CRP) and orosomucoid (ORM) have been shown to pl[r]
