Quiz 1 midterms Flashcards
basic unit of kidneys
Nephrons
- main filtering
Glomerulus
Shield of negativity
Fenestrated membrane
Parts of the glomerulus that filters
Codocytes, and fenestrated membrane
Major site of reabsorption
Proximal convoluted tubule
where urine concentration
begins/starts
Loop of Henle
ADH acts on;
final urine concentration starts
Distal convoluted tubule
final urine concentration
Collecting duct
produces ADH
Adrenal cortex
produces renin
Juxtaglomerular apparatus
Normal Body Mechanism (BH, ADH, UV, UC)
I body hydration = D ADH = I urine volume = D urine concentration
D body hydration = I ADH = D urine volume = I urine concentration
Diabetes insipidus mechanism (BH, ADH, UV, UC)
D body hydration = D ADH = I urine volume = D urine concentration

1200mL/day
Normal renal plasma flow
600-700mL/minute

odor of phenylketonuria
mousy
odor of isovaleric
acidemia
sweaty feet
odor of diabetes
fruity
No visible particulates, transparent
Clear
Few particulates, newsprint easily seen through urine
Hazy

Cloudy
Newsprint cannot be seen
Turbid
Specific gravity of urine
1.003-1.035
May precipitate or clot
Milky
to protect the chemicals from the sunlight, tightly sealed,
every after use covers it, prevent run over of
analytes of reagent strip
Amber color
Give me the seconds, NV of LE
120 seconds;
NV:0-5/HPF
It is a component of the reagent strip that is 60 seconds and aid in
diagnosis of liver diseases and hemolytic disorders; Give me also the NV
Urobilinogen, NV: <1 mg/dL
It is a component of the reagent strip that is 60 seconds and do not usually appear in the urine; increased nitrite
is related with (?)
Nitrite, UTI
It is a component of the reagent strip that is 60 seconds and causes pre-renal, renal (orthostatic proteinuria), post-renal; Give me also the NV
Protein,NV: <10
mg/dL
