  2. Renal glycosuria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_glycosuria

    Renal glycosuria is a rare condition in which the simple sugar glucose is excreted in the urine [1] despite normal or low blood glucose levels. With normal kidney (renal) function, glucose is excreted in the urine only when there are abnormally elevated levels of glucose in the blood.

  3. Glycosuria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycosuria

    This point is called the renal threshold for glucose (RTG). [5] Some people, especially children and pregnant women, may have a low RTG (less than ~7 mmol/L [5] glucose in blood to have glucosuria). If the RTG is so low that even normal blood glucose levels produce the condition, it is referred to as renal glycosuria.

  4. Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nephrogenic_diabetes_insipidus

    The most obvious cause is a kidney or systemic disorder, including amyloidosis, [2] polycystic kidney disease, [3] electrolyte imbalance, [4] [5] or some other kidney defect. [ 2 ] The major causes of acquired nephrogenic diabetes insipidus that produce clinical symptoms (e.g., polyuria) in the adult are lithium toxicity and high blood calcium .

  5. Renal tubular transport inhibitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_tubular_transport...

    [2] [3] Renal tubular transport inhibitors have both therapeutic applications, such as enhancing the efficacy of certain medications or reducing drug-induced nephrotoxicity, and potential risks, including unwanted drug accumulation and altered pharmacokinetics of co-administered drugs. [1] [3]

  6. Renal glucose reabsorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_glucose_reabsorption

    Renal glucose reabsorption is the part of kidney (renal) physiology that deals with the retrieval of filtered glucose, preventing it from disappearing from the body through the urine. If glucose is not reabsorbed by the kidney, it appears in the urine, in a condition known as glycosuria. This is associated with diabetes mellitus. [1]

  7. Fanconi syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanconi_syndrome

    Fanconi syndrome or Fanconi's syndrome (English: / f ɑː n ˈ k oʊ n i /, / f æ n-/) is a syndrome of inadequate reabsorption in the proximal renal tubules [1] of the kidney.The syndrome can be caused by various underlying congenital or acquired diseases, by toxicity (for example, from toxic heavy metals), or by adverse drug reactions. [2]

  8. SGLT2 inhibitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SGLT2_inhibitor

    Sotagliflozin (Inpefa) is a dual SGLT1/SGLT2 inhibitor approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in May 2023, to reduce the risk of cardiovascular death, hospitalization for heart failure, and urgent heart failure visit in adults with heart failure or type 2 diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and other cardiovascular risk factors.

  9. Uricosuric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uricosuric

    The NSAID diclofenac has an antiuricosuric action, which may be partly responsible for the extraordinary toxicity of this drug in vultures. [6] Pyrazinamide, a drug indicated only for treatment of tuberculosis, is a potent antiuricosuric [7] and, as a consequence, has an off-label use in the diagnosis of causes of abnormal uric acid clearance.
