1.	Bacteriuria 08/01/2002 - "The objective of the study was to assess the diagnostic performance of the reagent strip in screening for asymptomatic bacteriuria in pregnant women using urine culture as a gold standard. " 01/01/2019 - "In older adults, diagnosis of UTI using near-patient urine tests (reagent strip tests, dipsticks) is advised against because the age-related increase in asymptomatic bacteriuria can cause false-positive results. " 05/01/2005 - "This study was undertaken to determine whether reagent strip testing can predict bacteriuria in urogynecology patients. " 12/01/2011 - "Asymptomatic bacteriuria in pregnancy: evaluation of reagent strips in comparison to microbiological culture." 12/01/2008 - "Reagent strip testing indicated a fair sensitivity for routine antenatal screening for asymptomatic bacteriuria in pregnant women"
2.	Schistosomiasis haematobia (Schistosomiasis haematobium) 05/01/2014 - "This study assessed the validity of a morbidity questionnaire and urine reagent strips as a rapid tool for screening schoolchildren for urinary schistosomiasis as compared with the presence of eggs in urine as the gold-standard parasitological diagnosis. " 01/01/2020 - "The study findings suggest that urine reagent strips will continue to serve as a very useful adjunct test for monitoring the prevalence of urinary schistosomiasis in endemic areas." 01/01/2022 - "Therefore, this study aimed to determine the prevalence of urogenital schistosomiasis in schoolchildren, and to evaluate diagnostic performance of urine filtration and urinalysis reagent strip in Amibara, Kurmuk and Abobo districts, Ethiopia. " 02/01/2014 - "The study evaluates the prevalence of urogenital schistosomiasis and diagnostic performance of chemical reagent strips used for disease diagnosis in preschool-aged children (≤ 5 years) in Nigeria rural communities. " 01/01/2000 - "We therefore undertook a study in an area endemic for Schistosoma haematobium in the United Republic of Tanzania to carry out the following: assess the sensitivity, specificity and predictive values--in women of childbearing age--of indirect indicators of urinary schistosomiasis, as measured by urine reagent strip readings; assess the predictive values of self-reported symptoms; and finally to estimate the morbidity attributable to S. "
3.	Proteinuria 12/01/2011 - "A total of 1,124 urine samples were collected, screened for microhaematuria and proteinuria using reagent strips (Combi 9) and results were compared to filtration technique, the gold standard method. " 03/11/2015 - "However, the difference in overall test accuracy between the urine reagent strips for microhaematuria and proteinuria was not found to be different when we compared separate populations (P = 0.25), or when direct comparisons within the same individuals were performed (paired studies; P = 0.21).When tests were evaluated against the higher quality reference standard (when multiple samples were analysed), sensitivity was marginally lower for microhaematuria (71% vs 75%) and for proteinuria (49% vs 61%). " 12/01/1994 - "This study deals with the effectivecess of chemical reagent strips for detection of haematuria and proteinuria in selecting S. " 04/01/2023 - "A questionnaire was used to characterize individuals and assess previous diseases, and urinalysis reagent strips were used to assess proteinuria. " 01/01/2022 - "Commercial reagent strips were employed for the detection of haematuria and proteinuria. "
4.	Peritonitis 07/01/2005 - "To determine the efficacy of reagent strip for bedside diagnosis of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP). " 01/01/2005 - "In the present study, we evaluated the usefulness of a new reagent strip, the PeriScreen Test Strip (Serim Research, Elkhart, IN, U.S.A.), for diagnosis of peritonitis in PD patients. " 06/01/2002 - "In this study we examined the usefulness of a new reagent strip, the PeriScreen Test Strip, in the diagnosis of peritonitis. " 01/01/2023 - "Oey RC, Kuiper JJ, Van Buuren HR, et al. Reagent strips are efficient to rule out spontaneous bacterial peritonitis in cirrhotics. " 07/01/2016 - "Reagent strips are efficient to rule out spontaneous bacterial peritonitis in cirrhotics."
5.	Infections 02/01/1990 - "The reagent strip specificity improved significantly with successive treatments indicating that haematuria was more sensitive than parasitology for light infections. " 12/01/2009 - "This study evaluated the performance of reagent strip testing for haematuria to diagnose Schistosoma haematobium infection among school-aged children in the context of a rapid mapping survey in Southern Sudan. " 07/01/2007 - "mansoni infection in urine using reagent strips would provide information on the prevalence of the disease, although further study is needed to improve its sensitivity and specificity." 09/01/1992 - "This study describes the sensitivity and specificity of a screening technique based on commercially available reagent strips in the diagnosis of urinary infection. " 10/19/2022 - "The performance of the urine reagent strips (URS) in detecting the presence and estimating the intensity of Schistosoma haematobium infection was evaluated using urine filtration microscopy as a reference standard.
