Q

acute post streptococcal glomerulonephritis

what lab should you draw for diagnosis?

A

complement since it lowers complement 3
antigen form IgG ang IgM immune complexes to kidney cells
- will see lower complement 3 , hematuria, and proteinuria

vs IgA nephropathy ( IgA complexes in mesangium)/ Henoch Schonlein purpura
- IgA does not fix complements so will see normal complements
