Urine Analysis Data

Description

The 'urine' data frame has 79 rows and 7 columns.

79 urine specimens were analyzed in an effort to determine if certain physical characteristics of the urine might be related to the formation of calcium oxalate crystals. Cases 1 and 55 have missing covariates.

Usage

Format

This data frame contains the following columns:

r

Indicator of the presence of calcium oxalate crystals.

gravity

The specific gravity of the urine.

ph

The pH reading of the urine.

osmo

The osmolarity of the urine. Osmolarity is proportional to the concentration of molecules in solution.
