See below.: Urinary protein: can be the result of urological and nephrological (kidney) disorders, but may also be seen temporarily in strenuous exercise, dehydration, and urinary tract infections. How much protein? Urinary glucose: can occur with defects in renal tubular function and in familial renal glucosuria, a genetic disorder, as well as diabetes.
