Resumen |
An increase in the incidence of renal calculus in air crews led the authors to study the following urinary physico-chemical values in a group of airline pilots subjected to a 6-h supersonic flight: urinary output per minute, density, pH, dry residue, electrolytes, uric acid, creatinine, urea and calcium oxalate crystals in the urinary sediment. In spite of increased urinary output (2.5 to 3 times more than normal) during the flight, the results, given in diagrammatic form (higher concentration of certain electrolytes and greater amount of urinary dry residue) show a urinary concentration which requires the adoption of preventive measures to counteract certain adverse effects on the kidneys. |
