🗑
inflammation of the bladder. primarily seen in women   cystitis  
🗑
painless hematuria. Dx w/cystoscopy & biopsy   bladder tumor  
🗑

🗑
liver dysfunction,kidney stones,nephritis, diabetes, infection trauma , renal circulatory difficulties   protein in urine  
🗑
liver dysfunction , hepatitis   bilirubin in urine  
🗑
gout, calculi infection   uric acid in urine  
🗑
