All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, your results are not a cause for concern. Wish you good health!

It means that an occassional cell lining theurinary system and a bacteria were seen. Both findings are within normal limits and nothing to worry about
