53
Q

What is the job of the thin ascending limb?

A

Reabsorbs water

54
Q

What is the job of the thick ascending limb?

A

Make the concentration gradient by reabsorbing Na, K, Cl, Mg, Ca without water

55
Q

What is the job of the early distal tubule?

A

Concentrate urine by reabsorbing NaCl (hypotonic)

56
Q

What is the job of the late distal tubule and collecting duct?

A

Final concentration of urine by reabsorbing water, excretion of acid (isotonic)

61
Q

What is psychogenic polydipsia?

A

No concentrating ability= cerebral edema

62
Q

What is hepatorenal syndrome?

A

High urea from liver= increase glutaminase= NH4+= GABA= kidney stops working

63

A

Distal renal tubular acidosis: H/K in CD is broken= high urine pH (UTI, stones, Li)

64

*2 deletions “trait/intermedia/major”: only HbA2 and HbF
= hypoxia at 6 months

77
Q

What is cooley’s anemia?
