Without any solution Explanation: Napp means basically without any luck or solution despite what they have tried. "The fishing did not go great as they had had no "napp" so far". No fish took the bate so they had had no luck! Your translation is in regards to tests carried out and they basically have not found the cause of the problem. So no luck despite of all the tests carried out and the lady is still ill without a diagnosis. You could use result but then you need to specify that despite tests they have yet to come up with a result that explains her condition. |

finding (in this context) Explanation: Strange way to express 'no findings'. Normally, napp would refer to a fish biting your lure, but it can also be used in a symbolic way. Not the way a medic would express the results of a blood sample, though, but it is the only way to interpret this example. |
