Goljan Renal

QuestionAnswer
First sign tubule cell dysfunction inability to concentrate urine
Fixed specific gravity chronic renal failure; cannot concentrate or dilute urine
Negative urine bilirubin + trace urobilinogen normal urine
Positive urine bilirubin, absent urobilinogen obstructive jaundice
Positive urine bilirubin + increased urobilinogen hepatitis
Negative urine bilirubin + increased urobilinogen extravascular hemolytic anemia
Positive urine nitrite + positive urine leukocyte esterase urinary tract infection
Sterile pyuria positive urine leukocyte esterase but negative standard culture; TB, C. trachomatis
Prerenal azotemia ↑ BUN and creatinine; ↓ renal blood flow (e.g. heart failure, hypovolemia)
Renal azotemia ↑ BUN and creatinine due to intrinsic renal disease (acute tubular necrosis)
Postrenal azotemia ↑ BUN and creatinine due to obstruction to urine flow
Serum BUN:creatinine ratio <15:1 (renal failure); >15:1 (prerenal or postrenal azotemia)
BUN 80 mg/dL:creatinine 8 mg/dL ratio 10/1 - renal failure
BUN 80 mg/dL:creatinine 2 mg/dL ratio 40/1 - prerenal azotemia or postrenal azotemia
Creatinine clearance measures GFR
Proteinuria important sign of renal dysfunction
RBC casts nephritic type of glomerulonephritis
WBC casts acute pyelonephritis, acute tubulointerstitial nephritis
Fatty casts with Maltese crosses nephrotic syndrome
Hyaline casts normal unless associated with proteinuria

Nephritic syndrome oliguria; RBC casts; hypertension; mild to moderate proteinuria
Nephrotic syndrome proteinuria >3.5 g/day; ascites and pitting edema; fatty casts; fusion of podocytes
Immunofluorescence linear (anti-glomerular BM antibodies); granular (IC deposition)

S/S young male with hemoptysis progressing to renal failure
Minimal change disease (lipoid nephrosis) MCC childhood nephrotic syndrome
Lipoid nephrosis podocyte fusion; loss of negative charge in glomerular BM
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis nephrotic syndrome; AIDS and IV heroin abuse
Membranous GN MCC adult nephrotic syndrome; subepithelial deposits; epimembranous spikes
Causes membranous GN HBV, ACE inhibitors, cancer
Type I MPGN nephrotic; subepithelial deposits; HCV association; tram tracks
Type II MPGN nephrotic; C3 nephritic factor; intramembranous ICs (dense deposit disease)
DM nodular glomerulosclerosis microalbuminuria first sign
DM glomerulosclerosis nodules with collagen in mesangium; hyaline arteriolosclerosis of arterioles
ACE inhibitors inhibit angiotensin II vasoconstriction of efferent arterioles
Alport’s syndrome XD hereditary nephritis with sensorineural hearing loss

S/S ARF, fever, rash, eosinophilia, eosinophiluria, WBC casts
Analgesic nephropathy aspirin plus acetaminophen; renal papillary necrosis; IVP with ring defect
Myeloma kidney BJ protein produces foreign body reaction in tubules
Urate nephropathy prevent by giving allopurinol prior to chemotherapy
CRF fixed specific gravity; BUN:creatinine <15:1; waxy and broad casts
Renal osteodystrophy CRF hypovitaminosis D (no 1-α-hydroxylase); produces osteomalacia
Renal osteodystrophy CRF osteoporosis from metabolic acidosis

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
