| normoglycaemic glycosuria | The recurring or persistent excretion of glucose in the urine, in association with blood glucose levels that are in the normal range; results from the failure of proximal renal tubules to reabsorb glucose at a normal rate from the glomerular filtrate (low renal threshold); defect in the glucose carrier in the nephron. Synonym: diabetes innocens, normoglycaemic glycosuria, renal diabetes. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| digestive glycosuria | Glycosuria developing after the ingestion of a moderate amount of sugar or starch, which normally is disposed of without appearing in the urine, because rate of intestinal absorption exceeds capacity of the liver and the other tissues to remove the glucose, thus allowing blood glucose levels to become high enough for renal excretion to occur. Synonym: alimentary diabetes, digestive glycosuria. (05 Mar 2000) |
| orthoglycaemic glycosuria | <nephrology> Presence of glucose in the urine without hyperglycaemia due to abnormality in renal tubular reabsorption of filtered glucose. Synonym: nondiabetic glycosuria, orthoglycaemic glycosuria. (05 Mar 2000) |
