Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fever and chills may be observed. The presence of white blood cells in urine indicates a urinary tract infection or inflammation. Overhydration, early renal disease, and inadequate antidiuretic hormone secretion reduce specific gravity. Increased blood pressure is associated with renal disease or damage and some medications. Abnormal blood sugars would be seen in someone with ketones in the urine or a patient with diabetes.
