A 40 year old man visits his physician complaining of pain associated with his joints and back. His initial lab values are as follows: urea nitrogen 120 mg/dL (high), creatinine 4.0 mg/dL (high), uric acid 9.0 mg/dL (high), creatinine clearance 50 ml/min (low) and urine pH 5.0. What is the significance of the decreased glomerular filtration rate:

  1. increased serum creatinine causes reduced creatinine clearance, renal failure, and GFR reduction
  2. blockage of the urinary tracts caused by kidney stones leads to decreased GFR and urine output
  3. elevated urea nitrogen leads to increased excretion, which blocks renal tubules and leads to decreaed GFR
  4. the creatinine clearance cannot be used in this case to assess GFR
A

2 - blockage of the urinary tracts caused by kidney stones leads to decreased GFR and urine output

His initial lab values are as follows: urea nitrogen 120 mg/dL (high), creatinine 4.0 mg/dL (high), uric acid 9.0 mg/dL (high), creatinine clearance 50 ml/min (low) and urine pH 5.0. If the creatinine were 1.0 instead of 4.0 would the diagnosis change:

  1. yes, because the urea nitrogen/creatinine ratio is now within the reference interval indicating no disease state
  2. yes, the diagnosis may change because the ratio of urea to creatinine now indicates renal failure
  3. no, because this indicates a failure in the methodology used to determine urea and creatinine
  4. no, because the other analytes still indicate the presence of gout; additionnaly, creatiin values of 1.0 with an elevated ratio can indicate tissue breakdown, which could be kidney tissue damaged from the stones
A

4 - no, because the other analytes still indicate the presence of gout; additionnaly, creatiin values of 1.0 with an elevated ratio can indicate tissue breakdown, which could be kidney tissue damaged from the stones

Q

Why do values obtained with the endopoint Jaffe reaction for creatinine measurement overestimate creatinine concentration by 20%

  1. the components of the reaction mixture often continue to react at endpoint and synthesize excess creatinine
  2. the rate of Jaffe complex formation is temperature dependent, and excess heat formed by the reaction leads to increased absorptivity and falsely increased creatinine value
  3. noncreatinine chromogens in the reaction react with the picrate in the end point Jaffe methods and overestimate true plasma creatinine concentration
  4. hydroxide concentrations above 0.5 mmol/L produce a decreased degradation of the Jaffe complex
A

3 - noncreatinine chromogens in the reaction react with the picrate in the end point Jaffe methods and overestimate true plasma creatinine concentration

Why does persistently acidic urine leads to formation of uric acid renal stones:

  1. uric acid has a pKa of 5.57, which makes it insoluble in acidic solutions
  2. at a pH of 10, uric acid is insoluble and aggregates to form stones
  3. elevated urine purines cause uric acid crystals to aggregate and form stones
  4. supersaturation of acidic urine causes calcium to form complexes with uric acid, which is the initial step in stone formation

A new physician that practices at a university student-healthcare facility often recomments to her student patients that they take magadoses of vitamin C to fend off colds. As director of the chemistry laboratory that serves this facility, you notice a trend in that many olf this physician’s sutdent’s serum uric acid levels are unusually high. You are currently using a dry reagent slide format method of uric acid analysis that uses uricase and peroxidase. What might be the cause of the elvated values:

  1. high doses of ascorbic acid cause increased hepatic synthesis of bilirubin, which interferes with the enzymes used in assay
  2. elevated ascorbic acid in serum interferes with the development of the color reaction in the dry reagent slide format
  3. it may be that his physician’s p atients all are exhibiting increased catabolism of purine nuclosides
  4. the phenolic compounds derived from the catabolism of uric acid in the students serum is interfering with the development of the color reaction
