Isostenuria is a sign of an extreme stageinflammatory process in the kidneys. This condition is determined by the density of urine, which has a constant specific gravity. This happens during the diseases of the excretory system of man.
When does the specific density of urine change?
In a healthy person, the indicators of biologicalthe fluids periodically change under the influence of the food consumed. If the specific gravity of urine remains constant, then doctors diagnose isostenuria. This is a condition where one can assume the presence of the following diseases:
- Pyelonephritis is a bacterial inflammation in the kidneys.
- Nephrosclerosis - compaction and contraction of the tissues of the organ, loss of basic functions.
- Polycystic disease - proliferation of affected areas, which leads to kidney damage.
- Renal failure is a pathological condition that leads to malfunctioning of the whole organism. The organ partially irretrievably loses the ability to remove water.
Provocators of inflammation of excretory system
Isostenuria is not the main sign of disease.Often observed other abnormalities in the urinary system: nocturia, polyuria, hypostenuria. Only a set of clinical indicators determines the state of the body.
The specific gravity of urine can vary within a day. His consistency suggests that isostenuria is present. The reasons for its appearance:
- viruses;
- infection;
- autoimmune diseases;
- diabetes;
- an overabundance of protein in the body for various reasons: the effect of drugs, chemistry, parasites.
For the analysis, the urine density point is used,fluctuating within the limits of 1.007-1.015. The parameter is needed for a quantitative description of the concept of isostenuria. This is a state of kidney pain. In a healthy person, the indicator is above the minimum value of 1.023. All changes in values occur before the specified limit.
