Q

how does primary hyperparathyroidism cause hypercalcemia

A
  • increase production and release of PTH -> increase [PTH]
  • > increase mobilization of Ca from bone

Q

how does decrease urinary excretion (failure in equine and canine) cause hypercalcemia

A
  • equine renal failure -> decrease GFR -> decrease clearance of Ca and Ca/A
  • canine renal failure (mostly acute) -> decrease GFR -> decrease clearance of A -> increase formation of Ca/A complexes in plasma and not cleared

Q

who does Addison’s disease cause hypercalcemia

A
  • hypoadrenocorticism -> hypovolemia -> increase activation of renin-angiotensin system -> increase angiotensin cause increase proximal tubular resorption of Na&Ca

Q

how does hypovitaminosis D (chronic renal disease) cause hypocalcemia

A
  • chronic renal disease -> secondary renal hyperparathyroidism -> decrease 1a-hydroxylase -> decrease [calcitriol] -> decrease fCa absorption from intestine and resorption from bone

Q

what type of Ca concentration is commonly caused “ionized calcium”

A
  • free calcium (fCa)
18
Q

if sample measuring fCa is aerobic effects on pH

A
  • decreases [H] - alkalemic
19
Q

disorders of [tCa] are typically disorders of [fCa] except (2)

A
  • decrease [tCa] due to hypoalbuminemia

- increase binding of Ca to anions

20
Q

why is [Pi] inorganic phosphorus concentration higher in puppys and kittens

A
  • GH -> increase renal resorption of Pi
21
Q

Pi is measured from

A
  • PO4
22
Q
  • decrease urinary PO4 excretion
  • increase PO4 absorption from intestine
  • shift PO4 ICF to ECF
    all cause __ of [Pi]
A
  • increase

- hyperphosphatemia

23
Q

how does a decrease urinary PO4 excretion cause hyperphosphatemia

A
  • decrease GFR -> decrease clearance of PO4

- decrease PTH activity -> increase tubular resorption of PO4

24
Q

how does increase PO4 absorption from intestine cause hyperphosphatemia

A
  • phosphate enema

- hyoervitaminosis D -> increase mobilization of PO4 from bone

25
Q
  • urinary PO4 excretion
  • decrease PO4 absorption from intestine
  • shift PO4 ECF to ICF
  • equine renal disease (failure)
  • endotoxemia
  • defective mobilization of PO4 from bone
    all cause __ of [Pi]
A
  • decrease

- hypophosphatemia

26
Q

Mg in RBCs is greater than, less than or equal to Mg in plasma

A
  • greater than
27
Q

how does hypoproteinemia cause a hypomagnesemia

A
  • inadequate ruminal or intestinal absorption of Mg
  • > prolonged anorexia or poor feed intake
  • > calves on whole milk diet
  • > grass tetany in cattle
