Subcutaneous and intranasal administration of 1-deamino-8-d-arginine vasopressin in the assessment of renal concentration capacity

Maximum urine concentration capacity was studied in healthy adults using different routes and doses of administration of 1-deamino-8-d-arginine vasopressin (DDAVP) - desmopressin. Plasma levels of DDAVP showed a dose-dependent increase after the subcutaneous but not after the intranasal administration. The effect on urine osmolality was similar but more prolonged after the subcutaneous as compared

Enzyme immunoassay of urinary beta-hexosaminidase isoenzymes in patients with renal transplants

beta-Hexosaminidase (NAG) and percent of NAG B were studied in twenty patients following renal transplantation. Median urinary NAG for twenty reference individuals was 0.26 U/mmol creatinine and NAG B was 24%. Urinary NAG decreased rapidly from a median of 3.7 U/mmol on the third day, to 1.2 U/mmol on the 15th day after transplantation in the patients with no major complications. The percentage of

Renal concentration capacity in adult patients with urinary tract infections

The maximal urine concentration capacity was studied in patients with acute pyelonephritis and in patients with clinically diagnosed acute cystitis. In the former group renal concentration ability was reduced in 16 of 22 patients and improved in all but two patients. Among patients with symptoms of acute cystitis 6 of 22 had a concentration capacity below 2 SD of normal values. Several of these pa

Does size matter? Attendance numbers at SI-sessions and how it affects learning conditions

Supplemental Instruction (SI) is today a well-known academic support model to address retention and student performance in higher education. However, in studies reporting the effect of SI, the number of attendees at SI-sessions are seldom mentioned or reflected upon.This study investigates if there is a lower, optimal, and upper number of SI-attendees for SI-sessions with viable learning condition

Status report for European SI/PASS/PAL-programmes

This report is based on the contributions from SI/PASS/PAL supervisors at 63 Universities in Europe to a basic survey of 13 questions. Each institution that responded to the survey was invited to provide more detailed information about the programme including attendance statistics and examples of evaluation/impact; 45 universities provided these more detailed responses. At present, there are nine
