It is the presence of sugar or glucose in the urine, which is not well cleared by the kidneys, being a condition of hereditary defect and it is when glucose is reabsorbed in the renal tube, autosomal dominant. This is known as glycosuria or glucosuria, it appears when blood sugar levels are high and it is reabsorbed by the renal tubes, it can be benign or pathological. Being benign, it does not cause symptoms and emotional stress is related to its appearance. In pathological conditions it appears as diabetes mellitus, and it is when the elevation of the sugar exceeds its normal levels, being the values of 10% when the normal levels are 5%, making the urine have a cloudy color and finding the liquid dense and particulate solid in it.
In order to know if the levels of sugar in the urine are good there are two types of tests: the reduction test and the enzymatic test. The reduction test is based on the reduction of some metal ions by glucose, and the enzymatic test is based on the action of oxidized glucose on glucose. The causes for its appearance are varied such as: diabetes, infections, pregnancies among others, one of the rarest is the so-called renal glucosuria disorder, this can be identified by routine urine tests or more extensive medical tests.
By not being able to filter glucose properly, abdominal pain, excessive thirst or hyperglycemia, high fever, kidney pain may occur. Treating it with medicine to correct the disease, with oral drugs or with the injection of insulin, vitamins like D improve the condition of it. As there are preventive measures, the solution is to control glucose levels periodically in the urine and in the blood.
