Aunt Zhang went to see a doctor because of urinary incontinence. In order to make a clear diagnosis, the report list came out quickly. However, the rules and regulations added and subtracted symbols, and there were some English letters, so I couldn't understand anything. The doct

So Aunt Zhang decided to ask the doctor for advice when it was convenient for the doctor, what are these symbols for?


Aunt Zhang: Hello doctor, I would like to ask what the numbers and various symbols of this urine test report are used for? And what is this "negative" and " positive "? Is it better to be negative or positive?

Doctor: aunt, don’t worry, let’s take a look at what this report list has. First of all, there are four columns on our report list, which are four different data. The first column is the inspection item, just like this "pruritus", which is to check whether your urine pH is normal.

Aunt Zhang: Ohohohohohoh, I understand this, what about this second column? I write the numbers a while and add and subtract them. I can’t understand

Doctor: This second column is the data we detected. This data should be viewed with the unit in our third column, just like this "white blood cell microscopy", and the following is written "0" and "/HP", which means that your leukocyte is "0/HP". Then, in layman's terms, "negative" means no, and "positive" means there is, just like your " bilirubin " is "negative", which means that bilirubin is not detected in your urine.

号: Then is this number the bigger the better? Also, which one is better, yin and yang? Is it better, yang?

Doctor: Aunt Zhang, this is the fourth column, which is our reference range. In order to facilitate the doctor's analysis of patient data, we will put the reference range on it. For example, you can see that the reference range of this "leukocyte microscopy" is 0-4.0, which means that as long as the data detected by your white blood cell is within 0-4.0, it is normal. You are 0 now, and this data is normal. In order to facilitate the doctor to read the report, those data that are above the reference range will generally have the symbol of "↑", while data that are below the reference range will have the symbol of "↓". Your test results are normal, so there is no arrow.

Aunt Zhang: I understand as soon as you say that. If you write negative in this reference range, it means that negative is normal. If the writing is positive, if the result is negative, then it is not correct

Doctor: Yes, that's what it means!

Aunt Zhang: OK, thank you doctor


It's like that, Aunt Zhang returned home with fresh knowledge. The checklist like a heavenly book seems to be no longer so far away from her. But as Aunt Zhang looked at it, the question marks became more and more. Although she understood the meaning of addition and subtraction, what exactly did these test items do? What do these things like " urine sugar ", " urine protein " and other series of things do?
