Question
Answer
Sustained proteinuria of _____ is common in glomerular disease   >1-2g/24hours  
🗑
What are the three major syndromes of glomerular disease?   Nephritic syndrome, nephrotic syndrome, asymptomatic renal disease  
🗑
Primary renal disease where   there are only renal abnormalities  
🗑
Secondary renal disease where   renal disease is secondary to a systemic disease  
🗑
Etiology of glomerular dz   Idiopathic, infection, autoimmune disease (SLE, Goodpasture's), atherosclerosis, *hypertension, *diabetes mellitus  
🗑
Glomerularnephritis definition   Inflammation of the glomerular capillaries  
🗑
Describe immune mediated glomerulonephritis   immune deposits along the GBM causes anti-GBM antibodies to be produced. They trigger the immune cascade. The cytokines released cause destruction of capillary and mesangium  
🗑
Systemic hypertension and atherosclerosis can be the cause of   Chronic glomerulosclerosis  
🗑
Primary disturbance noted in glomerulonephritis   blood in the urine  
🗑
Malignant hypertension leads to fibrinoid necrosis of arterioles and glomeruli leading to...   Acute renal failure  
🗑
Long-standing effects of hyperglycemia will lead to...   Thickening of the GBM  
🗑
two mechanisms that are affected by changes in vascular resistance   Decreased perfusion leads to ischemic injury; Impairment of glomerular arterial outflow leads to intraglomerular hypertension. ultimately Acute and Chronic Tubular Interstitial Nephropathy  
🗑
Swelling is caused by the (excess/lack of) albumin?   lack of.  
🗑
Lab results/UA of glomerulonephritis   RBC Casts, dysmorphic RBC, proteinuria >1-2g/24hrs.  
🗑
Benign proteinuria (<1gm/24hrs) is present in   fever, exercise, pregnancy, obesity  
🗑
Describe the urine and patient condition in GD   urine is foamy, and patient is edematous  
🗑
Minimal change dz excretion   children with minimal change dz excrete only albumin  
🗑
Acute Nephritic Syndrome   Proteinuria, hematuria, pyuria, hypertension, fluid retention, gradual rise in creatinine  
🗑
6 types of nephritic syndrome   RPGN (Cresentic GN), Post streptococcal GN, endocarditis associated GN, Lupus nephritis, Antiglomerular basement membrane dz (Good pasture's syndrome), IgA nephropathy (Berger's Dz)  
🗑
Rapidly Progressive Glomerular Nephritis   the Cresentic GN is a variety of RPGN with a characteristic glomerular lesion  
🗑
Post Streptococcal GN   usu. in the pediatric patients 2-14  
🗑
4 types of nephrotic syndrome   Minimal change disease, membranous nephropathy, membranoproliferative GN, Focal glomerular sclerosis  
🗑
