(19) Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors decrease albuminuria in patients with diabetic nephropathy.
(20) Besides increased albuminuria the appearance of low molecular weight proteins in urine and in 50% gamma globulinuria are further criteria for the rejection crisis.
Urine
Definition:
(n.) In mammals, a fluid excretion from the kidneys; in birds and reptiles, a solid or semisolid excretion.
(v. i.) To urinate.
Example Sentences:

(3) One thing seems to be noteworthy in their opinion: the bacterial resistance of the germs isolated from the urine is bigger than the one of the germs isolated from the respiratory apparatus.
(4) This difference is probably secondary to the different rates of delivery of furosemide into urine.
(5) No associations were found between sex, body-weight, smoking habits, age, urine volume or urine pH and the O-demethylation of codeine.
