A systematic study was undertaken to evaluate the urinary Tamm-Horsfall protein (THP), creatinine and total protein elimination in 76 normal subjects divided into five groups during the first 30 years of life. This shows that urinary THP flow, relating to body surface area, increases progressively up to adult age.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
