05.19 - Tubulointerstitial 1 (Wall) - PP, No reading Flashcards
Granular casts mean that there is what in sediment
Renal tubular cells
Acute Interstitial Nephritis is a ___ reaction
immune-mediate hypersensitivity
Primary lesions in Arist Acid nephropathy are likely centered in
vessel walls –> Ischemia and interstitial fibrosis
PT dysfunction is manifested by
Decr reabsorption of Glucose, AA’s, etc
Urine Sediment in Pre-Renal AKI vs ATN
Hyaline casts vs Muddy Brown Coarse Granular Casts
Signs of tubular function abnormality w/ interstitial disease
GFR, Anemia, Dehydration, HyperK, RTA
Aminoglycosides injure what part of nephrone
PT
Earliest functional defect in Hypercalcemic Nephropathy is
Inability to concentrate the urine
Lithium typically injures what part of nephron and thus leads to what
CD –> Nephrogenic DI
Mechanism of Arist Acid Nephropathy
DNA adducts
Goal of interstitial disease treatment is to
not let interstitial fibrosis occur
Type of immunity that plays predominant role in Acute IN
Cell-mediated –> Sometimes form granulomas
Proteinuria and Pyuria in Interstitial Disease
Minimal proteinuria, Sterile pyuria
Type of immunity that plays role in Methicillin-induced AIN
Ab-mediated plays role in addition to Cell-mediated
Most frequent cause of Interstitial Nephritis
NSAID-associated
As opposed to Analgesic Abuse Nephropathy, Aristolochich Acid Nephropathy is localized to
Cortex
Prolonged, severe Hypercalcemia leads to
Nephrogenic DI - Can’t concentrate urine
All the heavy metals have been associated with __ injury
tubular
Most common genetic kidney disease
PCKD
AKI is a rise in serum creatinine of at least __ over a __ period and/or a rise of ___times baseline within previous ___ days
0.3 mg/dL over 48 hour period; >1.5 times baseline within previous 7 days
2 methods of injury by contrast
Vasoconstriction, Direct nephrotoxicity
__ gets lower with larger volume in PCKD
GFR
Time frame of Acute Drug-Induced IN after use of drug
15 days
Urinalysis of Contrast-induced Nephropathy
Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells and Coarse Granular Casts; No pyuria because non-inflammatory process (nephropathy)
Most common process behind AIN after NSAIDs
Viral infections
4 Causes of Papillary Necrosis
DM, Analgesic Nephropathy, Sickle-Cell, Obstruction
Origin of uric acid
Breakdown of DNA
Urinalysis in PCKD
Bland b/c no glomerular disease
Histology of NSAID-assoicated IN
Minimal Change Disease
Analgesic Abuse Nephropathy initially was reported with use of
Phenacetin
DT dysfunction is manfiest by
Decr reabsorption of Na, K, H
Waxy casts in interstitial disease tell you what
Chronic
