ABSTRACT
Rationale: Urine excretion of a substance sust
can be estimated from the
Csust/OCre index
after being adjusted for endogenous Creatinine
(Cre). Endogenous generation of Creatinine can
be approximated either from subject´s height or
weight. The case is presented for 24 hours
Proteinuria.
Objective: To assess the
performance of predictive equations of 24 hours
Proteinuria with either height or weight as
anthropometric normalizer.
Study serie: Ninetyfive
patients (Males: 57.8%; Average age: 39.9
± 14.8 years) assisted at Clinical Laboratory
Service of a hospital providing health care to
military personnel.
Material and method: 24 hours Proteinuria was estimated from Total
Proteins (OProt) and creatinine (OCre)
concentrations measured in a morning urine
sample by means of equations based on body
weight following Cockcroft & Gault (1976) and
Mañalich
et al. (1993); or modeled upon height
according with Walser (1987), Bistrian (1987)
and Santana Porbén (2014).
Results: 24 hours Proteinuria estimated values were lower than
observed ones. In addition, rate of 24 hours Proteinuria › 0.15 g.24 hours
-1 as estimated with urine morning samples was always lower than the observed with urine collections. These
differences disappeared for preserved values of body weight.
Discussion: Effectiveness of predictive equations based on height might be
affected by subject´s muscularity. Excessive body weight found in Cuban population might bias
estimation of 24 hours Proteinuria.
Conclusions: At present it does not seem use of either of the anthropometric normalizer would
result in a higher diagnostic effectiveness of the predictive equations for 24 hours Proteinuria.
