(n.) Accumulation in the blood of the principles of the urine, producing dangerous disease.
Example Sentences:
(1) Urine tests in six patients with other kidney diseases and with uraemia and in seven healthy persons did not show this substance.
(2) By taking peritoneal diffusion curves of several substances characterizing the uraemia it is possible, taking into consideration a creatinine clearance of 0.1 ml X s-1, to calculate the quantity of dialysate necessary for this, regarding also the residual renal function at a differently long duration of the dialysis cycle.
(3) An upper respiratory tract infection in a 22-month-old boy was followed by rapid loss of consciousness, hypoglycaemia, uraemia, and death.
(4) These findings suggest that although in rats with normal renal function aluminium absorption appears to be partly vitamin D dependent, 1,25(OH)2D3 does not further augment the enhanced gastrointestinal absorption of aluminium in uraemia.
(5) While the role of vascular plasminogen activator in haemorrhagic conditions is apparently unknown, prostacyclin activity appears to be markedly enhanced both in experimental animals and in patients with uraemia and bleeding complications.
(6) In comparing the situation with uraemia, the relevance of phenols has to be considered.
(7) Our data suggest that reduced sodium transport by the Na-K pump plays a role in the pathogenesis of arterial hypertension in patients with chronic uraemia.
(8) In uraemia the maximal acid output was directly related to the duration of uraemia and inversely related to both haemoglobin level and age; it was not related to the height of the blood urea.
(9) Bleeding due to impaired primary haemostasis is common in uraemia.
(10) It is proposed that the fall in brush-border enzyme activities in the proximal small intestine of uraemic rats is a response to the increased water intake associated with this, and presumably other, rat models of uraemia.
(11) Much has been learnt over the past 80 years of the pathogenesis and management of hyperparathyroid bone disease in uraemia.
(12) Biopsies were taken from 20 patients with uraemia, all of whom were treated with chronic intermittent dialysis, and 11 control subjects; up to three vessels were examined per biopsy.
(13) The clinical syndrome of uraemia is due to the failure of not only the excretory but also the metabolic, regulatory and endocrine functions of the kidney.
(14) The final stage of the disease is characterized by severe fibrosing chronic interstitial nephritis leading to death of the animals due to uraemia.
(15) Logistic regression analysis showed that uraemia was a determinant of intermyocardiocytic fibrosis independent of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, anaemia, heart weight, and presence or absence of dialysis procedure.
(16) As pulses of luteinising hormone are thought to reflect episodic gonadotropin releasing hormone from the hypothalamus these data suggest that uraemia interferes with central mechanisms controlling synchronised release of gonadotropin releasing hormone.
(17) The nature of carbohydrate may affect the tolerance and progression of uraemia.
(18) Appreciable suppression of weight gain was accompanied by uraemia and significant increases in the concentration of all amino acids except phenylalanine, tyrosine, threonine, and glutamate.
(19) To examine whether insulin resistance in uraemia extends to amino acid metabolism, the effect of physiological hyperinsulinaemia on plasma amino acid concentrations was studied in 17 chronically uraemic and 28 healthy subjects by using the euglycaemic insulin clamp technique.
(20) Subcutaneous arteriovenous fistulae are constructed regularly for haemodialysis in uraemia.
