Urinary Epidemiology Lab Report

The Congo red solution is used to mimic blood and the yellow food color mimics the excretory product of the kidney. When a mixture of Congo red, yellow food color and water were mixed and taken in a dialysis bag, the yellow food color diffuses out into the surrounding water in which the dialysis bag is suspended. At the end of the experiment, the contents in the dialysis bag represent the blood; the contents of the beaker represent the urine formed. The beaker has a slight yellow tinge that results from the yellow food color.

The serum creatine levels, the BUN, the urinary potassium, the serum pH and sodium clacium are high.

Author repeated the same experiment with another person, but the juice was poured by the author in SW and TS is of same volume. It is noticed that people have the tendency to choose SW more likely than TS.

Perform a urinalysis when possible to find levels of Specific Gravity (how concentrated the urine is), pH, Protein, Blood, Nitrites, Leukocytes, Ketones, Glucose and Bilirubin. The results of this test can help identify any possible impairment in renal function and identify the presence of an infection (Vera, 2011).

This method was devised to test whether such liquid as the only supply fluid cause physical disturbance or death within 6 to 12 days. They were so desperate for water they waited for the freshly mopped floors to get water by licking them.

The purpose of this study was to test the subjects on two different types of drinks. One was orange powerade and the other one was orange Gatorade. The goal was to have the subjects from group A and group B first taste an orange liquid from a small cup without knowing the brand name, and then the second experiment was to allow the subjects to be aware of the brand name of each liquid. After both experiments, the subjects are required to rate on a Likert Scale of one to ten. One being strongly dislike and ten being strongly like. After the experiment was completed, a result indicted that there was no difference in group A and group B. This study was similar to McClure and his colleagues, who also did a similar test, but used coco-la and Pepsi

Before the experiment could begin, it was vital to find out which of the 94 rats formed a conditioned taste for ethanol, this was achieved with aversion therapy whereby the rats were deprived of water for 24 hours, and then given 15 minute acccess to a water bottle the next day, this was then repeated but the water was replaced with 0.2% saccharin solution and also injected with ethanol. After another water deprived 24 hours, the rats had access to two bottles, one containing water and the other with 0.2% saccharin solution. The dependent measure was the percent of saccharin consumption on the test day thus the rats that consumed less than 1ml of total solution were excluded from the experiemnt, leaving the researchers

The purpose of this paper is to present an abbreviated critical appraisal of the article titled, Two-Step Process for ED (Emergency Department) UTI (Urinary Tract Infection) Screening in Febrile Young Children: Reducing Catheterization Rates (Lavelle et al., 2016). This abbreviated appraisal addresses the following items: purpose/objective, problem/background, primary independent and dependent variables, literature review, procedures/methods, statistical tests and credibility, results/findings, conclusions,

The experiment is as follows: Drinkers were to consume their typical amount of the alcohol each day. Each Drinker’s beverage-specific intake was then summed up to give the average grams of alcohol per day. Alcohol consumption was categorized within 6 sets: Non-drinkers, 0.1-9.9, 10.0-14.9, 15.0-29.9,30.0-49.9 and > or equal 50.0, based on the entire quantity (grams/day) of alcohol ingested. The subject’s age, BMI, and glycaemia were collected. Next blood pressure information was amassed. Results of cognitive testing were gathered. (p. 812) Collectively all information was compiled on a master chart that can be viewed on Table 1. (p.

64; P=0. 157]. This effect was more conspicuous towards the end of the testing [treatment by time communication: F (12, 204) =0. 80; P=0. 646], when even Drink "B" and its water fake treatment demonstrated a significant difference. Both the general treatment effect and the time course of this effect are appearing in Fig. 4

Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was the find the difference between concentration levels of high school students chewing gum versus non-chewers. The concentration portion provided students with two color tests to take to record differences in concentration. The results provided data with an increase in concentration of students while chewing gum.

A pattern that was found is that the water data is more consistent than the data for the juice and the seltzer. We know this because the data for the juice has a 16 second difference. The data for the seltzer came to a difference of 27 seconds. Finally the waters difference is 12 seconds, the most

The is considered the “gold standard” for obtaining objective information about the person’s voiding patterns and UI episodes and their severity(Dwelling Catronova &Bradway, 2008). The voiding dairy can be used by both community dwelling and institutionalized elders. Older adult in the community can usually keep a bladder dairy without much difficulty. Bladder dairies for those in long term care usually maintained by the staff. The character of the urine (color, odor, sediment, or clear) and difficulty starting or stopping the urinary stream should be recorded. Activities of daily living (ADLs) such as ability to reach to toilet and use it and finger dexterity for clothing manipulation should be documented (Lucas, Bosch, Burkhard, et al, 2102).

Feline lower urinary tract disease is a general term used when there is a condition affecting a cat’s bladder or urethra. These problems can consist of: urinary stones or crystals that form in the urine and irritate the lining of the bladder, urethral plugs that form in the male cats’ urethra, causing a physical obstruction, spasm of the muscle in the wall of the urethra, stress and behavioral problems, and bacterial infections in the bladder (Understanding). Clinical signs of feline lower urinary tract disease include: straining to urinate, urinating small amounts, frequent and/or prolonged attempts to urinate, crying out while urinating, excessive licking of the genital area, urinating outside the litter box, and blood
