The primary reason for the decreased medullary hypertonicity associated with osmotic diuresis is:
Which is NOT true of osmotic diuresis?
Regarding osmotic diuresis:
If [urine]PAH = 14mg/ml, urine flow = 0.9ml/min and [plasma]PAH = 0.02mg/ml i) What is the clearance of PAH? ii) If the extraction ratio of PAH is 0.9, what is the renal blood flow (Hct=45%)?
Substance X is freely filtered by the glomerulus and is not reabsorbed, nor secreted nor metabolized. If - serum x concentration = 0.020 mg/ml renal artery x concentration = 0.020 mg/ml renal vein x concentration = 0.002 mg/ml urine x concentration = 14 mg/ml urine flow = 54 ml/hr lymphatic x concentration = 0.00001 mg/ml haematocrit = 0.45 Renal plasma flow is:
Substance X is freely filtered by the glomerulus and is not reabsorbed, nor secreted nor metabolized. If - serum x concentration = 0.020 mg/ml renal artery x concentration = 0.020 mg/ml renal vein x concentration = 0.002 mg/ml urine x concentration = 14 mg/ml urine flow = 54 ml/hr lymphatic x concentration = 0.00001 mg/ml haematocrit = 0.45 Renal blood flow is:
What is the clearance of a substance when its concentration in plasma is 1mg/ml, its concentration in urine is 10mg/ml and the urine flow is 2ml/min
What is the clearance of a substance when its concentration in plasma is 1mg/ml, its concentration in urine is 10mg/ml and the urine flow is 2ml/min?
Substance X is freely filtered by the glomerulus and is not reabsorbed, nor secreted nor metabolized. If - serum x concentration = 0.020 mg/ml renal artery x concentration = 0.020 mg/ml renal vein x concentration = 0.002 mg/ml urine x concentration = 14 mg/ml urine flow = 54 ml/hr lymphatic x concentration = 0.00001 mg/ml haematocrit = 0.45 Then the CLEARANCE of X is:
Substance X is freely filtered by the glomerulus and is not reabsorbed, nor secreted nor metabolized. If - serum x concentration = 0.020 mg/ml renal artery x concentration = 0.020 mg/ml renal vein x concentration = 0.002 mg/ml urine x concentration = 14 mg/ml urine flow = 54 ml/hr lymphatic x concentration = 0.00001 mg/ml haematocrit = 0.45 The GFR is:
