Term info
comment
As water reabsorption in kidneys affect urinary solute concentrations, various methods are applied to normalize the measured concentration. Frequently, concentrations are reported as a ratio to urinary creatinine. The HPO terms in this subhierarchy therefore use the word 'level' to indicate that appropriate normalization has been performed before concluding that the amount of the indicated metabolite is abnormal.
