  • heavy proteinuria, edema, hypoalbuminemia, hyperlipidemia, hypercoagulable state

    What are the most common symptoms of Nephrotic Syndrome? (5)

  • structural changes; glomerular injury

    Nephrotic syndrome is a result of ________ in the glomeruli in response to ___________.

  • loss of serum albumin causes a lowering of oncotic pressure; causing fluids to move into tissue

    Why does edema occur in Nephrotic Syndrome?

  • hyperlipidemia; edema

    The decrease in oncotic pressure leads to ________ & ________.

  • non-proliferative structural alterations that lead to the thickening of the basement; causing glomerular sclerosis

    Explain the histology of Nephrotic Syndrome.

  • hematuria, proteinuria, oliguria, hypertension

    What are the signs of Nephritic Syndrome? (4)

  • changes within the glomeruli that lead mesangial/endothelial proliferation & inflammatory cell infiltration

    Explain the histology of Nephritic Syndrome.

  • diffuse proliferation

    Rapidly Progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN) is a consequence of advanced _______.

  • extensive crescent formation, rapid progressive renal dysfunction

    What are the signs of RPGN? (2)

  • they are a part of the necrotizing histological response; resulting from thrombosis & rupture of glomerular capillaries

    Why do crescents form in RPGN? (2)
