Total hydroxyproline/creatinine ratio (THP:Cr) was measured in random urine specimens from 18 infants with gastroenteritis. THP:Cr was sometimes increased during the acute phase of the illness and the reasons for this are discussed. Seven patients failed to thrive after the acute phase and THP:Cr was low in all of these. The test appears to be a sensitive indicator of the onset of failure to thrive, and it is suggested that it may be of value in the management of these patients.
对18名患肠胃炎婴儿的随机尿液样本进行了总羟脯氨酸/肌酐比值(THP:Cr)测定。在疾病急性期,THP:Cr有时会升高,并对其原因进行了讨论。7名患者在急性期后生长发育不良,且所有这些患者的THP:Cr均较低。该检测似乎是生长发育不良开始的一个敏感指标,建议其在这些患者的管理中可能具有价值。
