urea and HIV Wasting Syndrome

urea has been researched along with HIV Wasting Syndrome in 2 studies

pseudourea: clinical use; structure
isourea : A carboximidic acid that is the imidic acid tautomer of urea, H2NC(=NH)OH, and its hydrocarbyl derivatives.

HIV Wasting Syndrome: Involuntary weight loss of greater than 10 percent associated with intermittent or constant fever and chronic diarrhea or fatigue for more than 30 days in the absence of a defined cause other than HIV infection. A constant feature is major muscle wasting with scattered myofiber degeneration. A variety of etiologies, which vary among patients, contributes to this syndrome. (From Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine, 13th ed, p1611).

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" We noted a marked weight gain, improvement in metabolic profiles, that is, lowering of triglyceride, liver enzymes, glycohemoglobin concentrations, as well as 24-hour urinary excretion of urea nitrogen, protein, and creatinine suggestive of positive energy balance."3.70Weight gain, improvement in metabolic profile, and CD4 count with insulin administration in an AIDS patient.
