Medical - Medical (general) / oncologist report
Spanish term or phrase: azoados
"presentando descontrol metabólico con hiper glicemia, deshidratación de segundo grado, hipercalemia, elevación de *azoados* y anasarca...."

Are we talking about azo-compounds? Any idea?

Explanation:
The dictionary indicates that "azoato" is a non-preferred term for nitrogen.

The following reference clarifies what "azoados" are
En el sector de las técnicas cronofisiológicas en medicina veterinaria, útiles para la individualización del ritmo circadiano de las diferentes funciones fisiológicas, los autores han estudiado, en un grupo de 5 caballos de salto, por medio de la adaptación de un modelo periódico, la posible presencia de un ritmo circadiano a cargo de algunos metabolitos azoados (amoníaco, urea y proteínas totales).

nitrogen retention


Explanation:
It is probably azotados. Nitrogen retention is the most easily detectable manifestation of kidney failure, which is a possibility given the other findings you listed

Indeed! However, the basic idea is the same: retention of nitrogen-containing componds ('compuestos azoados' or just 'azoados') like urea because of kidney failure.

PS.: Now I realize that 'azotado' is Portuguese. Awfully sorry...

Notes to answerer
Asker: Paulo, no, es azoados... he encontrado muchas referencias en español con los términos azoados y anasarca... pero no encuentro la definición de azoados (a no ser que sean compuestos de azo-)
