Q

how does hypokalemia cause metabolic alkalosis?

A
  • potassium moves out
  • H+ moves in to maintain electrical neutrality –> raises blood pH
  • also: increased ammonia production

Q

why does hyperglycemia cause pseudohyponatremia?

A
  • water is driven by glucose out of cells into ECF
  • cause volume expansion
  • dilutes sodium in ECF

Q

why is plasma K+ high in acidosis?

A

acidosis causes K+ to move from cell to ECF in exchange for H+

Q

why does acidosis cause hypercalciuria?

A

acidosis triggers osteoclasts –> high bone turnover –> hypercalciuria –> nephrolithiasis

causes generalize reduction in bone density

Q

how does acidosis cause kidney stones?

A

hypercalciuria + increased citrate reabsorption

low citrate and high urine pH precipitate stones

Q

what causes pseudohyponatremia in hyperglycemia?

A

high glucose in plasma pulls water into the ECF, dilutes sodium

17
Q

metabolic acidosis from renal tubular acidosis type 1 (distal) can be differed from type 2 (proximal) via…?

A

bicarbonate excretion in urine

18
Q

bicarbonate release in urine is […] in proximal RTA and […] in distal RTA

A

increased in proximal
decreased in distal

19
Q

what favors calcium precipitation in the renal ultrafiltrate?

A

decrease in citrate in urine
and high pH of urine

25
inability of a-intercalated cells to secrete H+ so no new HCO3 is generated causing metabolic acidosis
distal renal tubular acidosis (type I)
26
in which type of RTA is urine pH > 5.5?
distal | type I
27
causes of RTA type 1 | distal
* ampho B * analgesic nephropathy * congenital abnormalities * obstruction of urinary tract * autoimmune disease (SLE)
28
which type of RTA carries an increased risk of kidney stones?
type I (distal) due to increased urine pH and high bone turnover
29
defect in PCT bicarb reabsorption causing increased excretion of bicarb in urine
proximal RTA (type 2)
30
proximal RTA (type II) is caused by
Fanconi multiple myeloma carbonic anhydrase inhibitors
31
which type of RTA carries an increased risk of hypophosphatemic rickets?
proximal | type II
32
due to hypoaldosteronism or aldosterone resistance
RTA type IV hyperkalemic tubular acidosis
33
hypekalemia causes decreased NH3 synthesis in PCT leading to decreased ammonium secretion
RTA type IV hyperkalemic tubular acidosis
34
RTA associated with hyperkalemia
RTA type IV hyperkalemic tubular acidosis
35
what can cause decreased aldosterone production?
* diabetic hyporeninism * ACEs/ARBs * NSAIDs * heparin * cyclosporine | type IV RTA
36
what can cause aldosterone resistance?
* K+ sparing diuretics * nephropathy due to obstruction * bactrim | type IV RTA
