What does the conscription urine test check for?

I believe that joining the army is a wish of many people in their childhood. Every child has a passionate dream of joining the army to defend his country. You can't join the army just by saying so. You need to go through a series of strict examinations before you can enter the barracks. When enlisting in the military, there will be a physical examination, which includes a urine test. So what does the urine test check during conscription? Let me introduce it to you below.

The main contents of urine examination include: urine color, acidity and alkalinity, urine sugar, urine protein, urine white blood cells, red blood cells, urine ketone bodies, etc. Clinically, the presence of urine sugar can be considered as a possibility of diabetes, urine white blood cells can be considered as a urinary tract infection, urine red blood cells can be considered as urinary tract stones, etc. Generally, the diagnosis should be combined with clinical symptoms.

Abnormal results with clinical significance : 1. Urine color, red indicates hematuria: acute cystitis, urinary tract stones, tumors, renal tuberculosis; milky white (chyluria), filariasis, and purulent urinary tract infection. Dark yellow or red tea-like color: jaundice. 2. Urine transparency and turbidity: when there are large amounts of crystals, blood, pus and chyluria. 3. Uric acid alkalinity (urine pH value). Understanding the acidity and alkalinity of urine can provide important clues for diagnosing certain kidney or metabolic diseases. 4. Urine specific gravity. In pathological conditions, the increase or decrease in urine specific gravity mainly depends on the concentrating function of the kidneys. Low specific gravity is seen in chronic nephritis and diabetes insipidus. 5. Microscopic examination: Red blood cells, increased: urinary system stones, pyelonephritis, nephritis, tuberculosis, acute cystitis, urinary system tumors. White blood cell: increased: urinary tract infection, tuberculosis. Granular casts appear continuously and in large quantities in acute and chronic nephritis. Hyaline casts sometimes appear in small amounts in nephritis, pyelonephritis, and febrile diseases. 6. Chemical examination: protein, positive: nephritis, chronic nephritis; urinary tract infection, high fever, renal tuberculosis. Sugar, positive: diabetes. Ketone bodies, positive: excessive hunger, severe diabetes. Urobilinogen greater than normal is seen in jaundice and hemolytic jaundice caused by hepatitis, liver cancer, etc. Bilirubin, positive: obstructive jaundice. People who need to be examined: Patients with urinary system diseases.

Note: Inappropriate groups: Generally no inappropriate groups. Taboos before the examination: Do not eat after 9 o'clock the night before the examination, but you can drink water. Do not eat or drink water after getting up in the morning on the day of the examination to facilitate accurate examination. Requirements for inspection: 1. When collecting urine specimens, please select a wide-mouth glass bottle that can hold more than 20 ml and make sure to wash it clean before use. 2. It is best to collect the first urine sample in the morning for testing. When collecting urine, it is best to urinate some first before collecting it. 3. Female patients are generally not advised to have urine collected for examination during menstruation.

During the examination, the doctor collects the patient's urine and has the urine separated and tested by the laboratory to determine whether the amount of various components in the urine exceeds the standard. The doctor must be careful during the examination to avoid mistakes. This inspection requires complete equipment and experienced and highly qualified experts to ensure that the inspection results are scientific and accurate.
