A

glomerular filtration

44
Q

what is the major difference between filtrate and plasma?

A

a normal healthy kidney (podocytes) will filter small amounts of protein in the filtrate
plasma have lots of protein

45
Q

clearance

A

how much of a substance can be removed from a certain amount of plasma volume in a given amount of time
estimates GFR

46
Q

what substance is the gold standard of GFR?

47
Q

why is inulin ideal?

A
non toxic 
infusible
freely filtered
not reabsorbed, secreted, metabolized

yes

49

52
Q

is creatine secreted?

A

yes 10% but usually measurement is balanced out by error

53
Q

how are plasma Creatinine (Cr) and GFR related?

A

inversely

a 50% reduction in GFR correlated to a 100% increase in plasma Cr

54
Q

normal plasma Cr level

A

1mg/dL

55
Q

at what plasma Cr do you have stage 4 CKD?

A

4mg/dL

56
Q

if you decrease GFR by half what does that do to plasma Cr?

A

increased by 2

57
Q

if you decrease GFR to 1/4 of normal what does that do to plasma Cr?

A

increased by 4

58
Q

What if you donate a kidney and lose half of your nephrons? will your plasma Cr levels always be high?

A

no, they will gradually return to normal if you are a young healthy individual

59
Q

Does GFR decline as you age?

A

yes
-1mL/min/yr from age 40
for healthy person this is enough for proper filtraiton

60
Q

what does CKD do to GFR?

A

accelerates the decline in GFR

lower GFR=higher mortality

61
Q

GFR>90

A

CKD stage 1

kidney damage with normal GFR

clearance > GFR

A

secretion

66
Q

clearance = GFR

A

no net secretion or re-absorption

67
Q

is high renal blood flow for filtration or metabolism?

A

filtration

O2 consumption relative to RBF is not high O2 is not critical

68

A

20%

71
Q

RBF

A

3.5mL/min/g (

72

% plasma filtered into the renal tubules

= GFR/RPF) = 20%

73
Q

what is the marker for renal plasma flow?

A

para-amino hippuric acid (PAH)

74
Q

why is PAH an ideal marker of renal plasma flow?

A

majority excreted
freely filtered 10mg/min
highly secreted 50mg/min

75
Q

If we constricted only the afferent arterial (AA) what would happen to:Blood Flow, Glomerular Capillary Hydrostatic Pressure (PGC), and GFR?

A

BF- decrease
PGC- decrease
GFR- decrease

76
Q

If we constricted only the efferent arterial (EA) what would happen to:Blood Flow, Glomerular Capillary Hydrostatic Pressure (PGC), and GFR?

A

BF- decrease
PGC- increase
GFR- STABILIZES (tends to maintain the GFR)

77
Q

If we dilated the AA what would happen to:Blood Flow, Glomerular Capillary Hydrostatic Pressure (PGC), and GFR?

A

BF- increase
PGC- increase
GFR- increase

78
Q

If we dilated the EA what would happen to:Blood Flow, Glomerular Capillary Hydrostatic Pressure (PGC), and GFR?

A

BF- increase
PGC- decrease
GFR- decrease

79
Q

what is the autoregulation range for RBF and GFR?

A

80-180mmHg MAP

80
Q

what are the two ways the kidney protects RBF and GFR from changes in MAP?

A
neuroendocrine regulation (vasoconstrictors and dilators)
intrinsic autoregulation of RBF
81
Q

without these protective mechanisms what would happen if there was a 25% increase in BP?

A

25% increase in GFR and high workload on the kidneys

A

myogenic

JGA: tubuloglomerular feedback
