summary

Under normal circumstances, a small amount of amylase can be absorbed into the blood and excreted with urine. You can measure the amylase in urine. Amylase is a digestive enzyme secreted by pancreas, which is discharged into duodenum with pancreatic juice through pancreatic duct. Determination of urinary amylase is mainly used for the diagnosis of pancreatitis. Urinary amylase is only an index, which can not be used as a sign of clinical diagnosis, but only as a reference for clinical diagnosis. So why does urinary amylase increase? What's the reason for the increase? Now let's share it.

How is amylase low to return a responsibility

First: pancreatic diseases: such as acute pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, pancreatic trauma, acute pancreatitis, pancreatic duct obstruction. Generally, acute pancreatitis began to increase 12 hours after onset. >1000 U / L, it can be diagnosed as acute pancreatitis. It lasted for 3-10 days and returned to normal, which lasted 5-7 days longer than that in blood.

Second: extrapancreatic diseases: such as parotitis, parotid gland tumor, pancreatic cancer, periampullary cancer, ovarian tumor, salpingitis, acute and chronic renal failure, abdominal surgery, cardiac surgery, diabetic ketosis, intravenous injection of adrenocortical hormone (such as hydrocortisone, dexamethasone), acute cholecystitis, etc. For example, mumps is often caused by virus infection. In the process of virus elimination, the repeated inflammation may lead to the repeated increase of urinary amylase

Third: alcoholism. Alcohol is an organic substance, called ethanol. When a large amount of alcohol is consumed, alcohol can promote the secretion of amylase by the pancreas. Amylase is sometimes absorbed, from the urine will be a little more row, resulting in increased amylase in the urine. So alcoholism can lead to an increase in amylase.

matters needing attention

Urine amylase is an index, sometimes the body may be normal amylase increased. The increase or decrease of urinary amylase can only be used as a clinical reference standard. The increase or decrease of urinary amylase needs further examination.
