Q

What is the pathophysiology of ATIN?

A
  • Inciting agent acts as a happen
  • Binds to an otherwise non-immunogenic kidney
  • Antibodies formed against the inciting agent bind the kidney and induce an inflammatory immunological response.

Q

Anaemia in CTIN is out of proportion to reduction in eGFR. True/False
