For example, a quick tap on the biceps brachii tendon will elicit a deep tendon reflex in the biceps, which will abruptly shorten. This results in a quick stretch of the triceps (i.e., the antagonist to the biceps). Reciprocal inhibition will act to inhibit contraction of the triceps that would occur otherwise.
Glucose is not usually found in urine. If it is, further testing is needed. Normal glucose range in urine: 0 - 0.8 mmol/l (0 - 15 mg/dL) The examples above are common measurements for results of these tests. Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Some labs use different measurements or test different samples.
1 Some people get glucose in their urine at lower levels. 2  They are said to have a 'low renal threshold' for glucose. 3  Older people may develop a high renal threshold, when glucose does not appear in the urine until the level in the blood is much higher than 10mmol/l. They are said to have a 'low renal threshold' for glucose. 2  Older people may develop a high renal threshold, when glucose does not appear in the urine until the level in the blood is much higher than 10mmol/l. 3  High or low renal thresholds will cause confusion if you are monitoring your diabetes with urine tests.
