Renal Flashcards
stimuli that induce renin release
B-adrenergic stimulation (sympathetic tone)
low Na in DCT (macula densa)
low pressure in afferent arteriole
body water
60% body weight
1/3 extracellular, 1/4 of that is plasma
glomerular filtration barrier
fenestrated capillary epithelium
BM with heparan sulfate (- charge)
podocyte foot processes
Renal formulas
CL=UV/P GFR=UV/P (inulin or creatinine) RPF=UP/V (PAH) Filtration fraction=GFR/RPF Filtered load=GFR*Px Excretion rate=V*Ux Reabsorption=filtered-excreted Secretion=excreted-filtered
effect of NSAIDS on kidney
inhibit PG (normally dilate afferent arterioles) so constrict afferent arteriole: decreases RBF and GFR, so FF stays the same
site of excretion of organic anions and cations
PCT
site of isotonic fluid reabsorption
PCT
gout+intellectual disability+lip-biting
Lesch-Nyhan syndrome
Psammoma bodies
Papillary adenocarcinoma of thyroid
serous cystadenocarcinoma of ovary
meningioma
mesothelioma
function of distal tubule
Principal cells: reabsorb H2O and Na
secrete K
Intercalated: secrete H or HCO
reabsorb K
two types of intercalated cells
alpha (a cells): secrete H ions
beta (B cells): secrete HCO3
effect of aldosterone on collecting duct
principal cells: increase reabsorption of Na and secretion of K
intercalated: increases secretion of H
acute pulmonary edema
loop diuretic
idiopathic hypercalciuria (calcium stones)
thiazide avoid loop (increase Ca excretion)
glaucoma
mannitol or acetazolamide
mild to moderate CHF with expanded ECV
loop
conjunction with loop or thiazide to spare K
K sparing
edema associated with nephrotic syndrome
loop
increased intracranial pressure
mannitol
mild to moderate HTN
thiazide
hypercalcemia
loop
hyperaldosteronism
spironolactone or eplerenone (ald antagonists)
heart failure pt with sulfa allergy
ethacrynic acid
peaked t waves
hyperkalemia
tetany
hypocalcemia, hypomagnesia
arrythmias
hypo/hyper K, hypomagnesia
decreased deep tendon reflexes
hypermagnesia
flattened T waves, U waves on EKG
hypokalemia
diagnostic features of DI
polyuria
decreased SG and osmolarity of urine
water deprivation test: no increase in urine osmolarity
desmopressin:
central if urine osmolarity increases
nephrogenic if urine osmolarity stays the same
factors cause hyperkalemia
Digitalis B antagonists acidoses decreased insulin hyperosmolariy cell lysis ACE inhibitors and K sparing
