Increased urinary calcium excretion in enuretic children treated with desmopressin.
PURPOSE The use of desmopressin in the treatment of primary nocturnal enuresis (PNE) is accepted and based on the fact that this drug leads to renal water reabsorption. However, recent findings have also implicated that desmopressin regulates other molecules, such as sodium and potassium. We investigate if desmopressin influences renal Ca2+ handling. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 32 childr...
متن کاملDesmopressin in the treatment of daytime urinary frequency in patients with multiple sclerosis.
Twenty two patients with multiple sclerosis, complaining of frequency of day time micturition, completed a double blind crossover trial of desmopressin (DDAVP nasal spray) versus placebo. There was a significant decrease in micturition frequency in the 6 hour post-treatment period from 3.1 voids after placebo to 2.4 voids and a significant reduction in urinary volume after desmopressin.

متن کاملIncreased urinary leukotriene E4 concentration in patients with eosinophilic pneumonia.
Although eosinophils produce cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLTs) in large quantities, information on the relationship between CysLTs and eosinophilic pneumonia (EP) is lacking. Inflammatory mediator concentrations in urine were quantified to clarify the relationship between CysLT concentrations and EP severity. Leukotriene (LT)E(4), eosinophil-derived neurotoxin (EDN), 9alpha,11beta-prostaglandin F...
متن کاملIncreased serum concentration of urinary trypsin inhibitor with asthma exacerbation.
The aim of the study was to determine whether the amount of urinary trypsin inhibitor (UTI) in serum, a degenerate induced by neutrophil elastase (NE), reflects the degree of bronchial inflammation in children with acute asthma exacerbation. The involvement of neutrophil-mediated inflammation plays as important a role as eosinophil-mediated inflammation in the pathogenesis of acute asthma exace...
