[Article in Polish]

Abstract

The authors determined uropepsin activity in 24-hour urine in 30 cases of mild craniocerebral trauma. The determinations were done on the 1st, 3d and 7th days after trauma. The control group consisted of 15 healthy subjects. The activity of the enzyme was raised only on the 1st day after trauma and it may be explained as a result of stress.
