... significant correlations with cadmium levels in urine (NAG: r = 0.51; p = 0.0001; AAP: r = 0.56; p = 0.0001). There is no similar statistically significant difference in GGT means in the two groups. In contrast to cadmium correlations, blood lead does not correlate with NAG, AAP, or GGT. A dose-response...

...N. Colleoni; G. D’Amico Gout rarely develops in nephropathy with advanced renal failure unless other risk factors are present. It has recently been demonstrated that gouty patients with renal failure have greater amounts of mobilizable lead. We have used the EDTA lead mobilization test for 12 gouty...

Ritz Urinary excretion of lead (Pb) was measured in the basal state and following the infusion of EDTA (1 g of calcium disodium edetate) in healthy German controls and in patients with chronic renal failure with and without gout.
