| diagram of renal corpuscle: The Vascular Pole of the Renal Glomerulus of Rat Marlies Elger, Tatsuo Sakai, Wilhelm Kriz, 1997-10-10 Knowledge of the architecture of the renal glomerulus is a prerequisite for understanding both glomerular function and pathology. Glomerular filtration depends on comparably high intracapillary hydrostatic pressures. These high pressures must be balanced by commensurate counterforces to maintain structural integrity. Elevated pressures can damage the glomerulus. The window for pressures high enough for effective filtration and yet tolerable to the glomerulus is narrow. Precise regulation is therefore necessary to keep intraglomerular pressure within an appropriate range. This study provides a comprehensive description of the glomerular arterioles, which are the vessels primarily responsible for the regulation of intraglomerular pressures. It thereby describes the structures which may be presumed to generate counterforces needed to assure structural stability. The arterioles are closely associated with the supporting system comprised of the intra- and extraglomerular mesangium. The extraglomerular mesangium forms a spider-like clamp providing a mechanical interconnection of all components of the vascular pole. At the same time, it may act as a tension receptor, i.e. as a sensor of intraglomerular pressures. Due to its intimate relationship to the macula densa, the extraglomerular mesangium receives information on the distal solute delivery and therefore may act as the integrative center within the juxtaglomerular apparatus. The close spatial association between the afferent and efferent arterioles at the vascular pole suggests a direct regulatory interaction between both arterioles. In addition, the specific wall structure of the efferent arteriole exhibiting the features of a shear stress receptor suggests new pathways for feedback regulation of glomerular hemodynamics. |

| diagram of renal corpuscle: Compendium of Histology Anders Rehfeld, Malin Nylander, Kirstine Karnov, 2017-09-07 This book has been designed to help medical students succeed with their histology classes, while using less time on studying the curriculum. The book can both be used on its own or as a supplement to the classical full-curriculum textbooks normally used by the students for their histology classes. Covering the same curriculum as the classical textbooks, from basic tissue histology to the histology of specific organs, this book is formatted and organized in a much simpler and intuitive way. Almost all text is formatted in bullets or put into structured tables. This makes it quick and easy to digest, helping the student get a good overview of the curriculum. It is easy to locate specific information in the text, such as the size of cellular structures etc. Additionally, each chapter includes simplified illustrations of various histological features. The aim of the book is to be used to quickly brush up on the curriculum, e.g. before a class or an exam. Additionally, the book includes guides to distinguish between the different histological tissues and organs that can be presented to students microscopically, e.g. during a histology spot test. This guide lists the specific characteristics of the different histological specimens and also describes how to distinguish a specimen from other similar specimens. For each histological specimen, a simplified drawing and a photomicrograph of the specimen, is presented to help the student recognize the important characteristics in the microscope. Lastly, the book contains multiple “memo boxes” in which parts of the curriculum are presented as easy-to-remember mnemonics. |
| diagram of renal corpuscle: Urine Sediment Josefine Neuendorf, 2020-06-17 This book is a comprehensive resource and up-to-date description of all urinary sediment constituents which are presented in bright-field mode and in phase-contrast mode. Thanks to numerous detailed images of urinary sediment constituents, the reader is able to easily compare what they view microscopically with high-resolution photographs and short films. The book is also designed to aid the identification of rare urine constituents in their native state without prior staining. It also features guidance on how set-up a microscope , microscopy techniques, and preanalytics. Exercises focused on microscopic analysis and diagnosis and a urinary sediment quiz reinforce key concepts to aid learning. Urine Sediment provides a practically applicable guide to the recognition of urinary sediment constituents. It is therefore a critical resource for trainees and experienced practitioners in urology, nephrology, gynecology and general practice who need to be able to accurately and quickly identify urine sediment constituents. |

| diagram of renal corpuscle: Approaches to Chronic Kidney Disease Jerry McCauley, Seyed Mehrdad Hamrahian, Omar H. Maarouf, 2021-10-18 Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major global public health problem, affecting nearly one in seven adults in the United States alone. It is a disease that integrates chronic illness at several levels, and the progressive condition is associated with high rates of co-morbidity. This text provides a comprehensive, current state-of-the art review of this field, serving as a valuable resource for primary care providers and non-nephrology clinicians that treat patients with CKD. It is comprised of 24 chapters focused on specific aspects of the disease. The first 2 chapters provide a bit of background on the disease, describing the anatomy and physiology of the kidney as well as the definition and epidemiology of the disease. The following 3 chapters discuss the detection, prevention and progression of the disease. The next 6 chapters describe the relationship of the disease with other conditions and most common co-morbidities such as diabetes and hypertension. The chapters, that follow focus on the CKD associated complications and the CKD within special populations such as the elderly and minorities as well as dietary restrictions and drug dosing. The book concludes with discussion on preparation for renal replacement therapy and preemptive organ transplantation as an alternative to dialysis in the management of the advanced CKD. Written by experts in the field, Approach to Chronic Kidney Disease is a comprehensive guide for clinicians, especially primary care providers including residents and fellows in training, who take care of chronic kidney disease patients.

The side by side comparison of mouse, rat, and human tissues highlight the unique biology of the rodents, which has great impact on the validation of rodent models of human disease. - Offers the only comprehensive source for comparing mouse, rat, and human anatomy and histology through over 1500 full-color images, in one reference work - Enables human and veterinary pathologists to examine tissue samples with greater accuracy and confidence - Teaches biomedical researchers to examine the histologic changes in their model rodents - Experts from both human and veterinary fields take readers through each organ system in a side-by-side comparative approach to anatomy and histology - human Netter anatomy images along with Netter-style rodent images |
| diagram of renal corpuscle: Renal Physiology Bruce M. Koeppen, Bruce A. Stanton, 2001 This text covers all of the essential points of renal physiology in a concise presentation and provides an essential tool for introducing concepts or reviewing basic information. Extensive use of tables, diagrams, and illustrations aids comprehension. The focus on core concepts, end-of-chapter summaries, and the clinical content and emphasis make this an excellent learning tool. Includes relevant content on the kidney with regards to the new genetic and molecular information available. Also features a new exam for self testing. Chapter objectives. Self study problems. Clinical case studies. Multiple choice exams for self assessment. Emphasis on the core concepts. Key words and concepts. New coverage of the genetics and molecular biology of renal transporters. New multiple-choice examhas been added, giving users 100 questions for self assessment. |
