A member asked:
Why is that there is a normal specific gravity but the patient is suffering from glomerular bleeding?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Urine Specific...: ...Gravity depends on amounts of urea, sodium, potassium, and chloride secreted, and those do not depend on glomeruli but on dietary intake and tubular function.
