The kidneys develop from intermediate mesoderm and each normally contains around 900,000 glomeruli. During development, podocytes envelop emerging endothelial capillaries to form glomeruli. Between nephrons is the renal interstitium containing fibroblasts and macrophages. Each nephron contains a proximal tubule, loop of Henle, distal tubule and collecting duct. Glomerular filtration is driven by hydrostatic pressure and opposed by oncotic pressure. Tubular reabsorption and secretion allow the kidneys to selectively retain needed substances and excrete waste.

Microteaching is a unique model of practice teaching. It is a viable instrument for the. desired change in the teaching behavior or the behavior potential which, in specified types of real. classroom situations, tends to facilitate the achievement of specified types of objectives.
Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

2. Embryologic Development
• Kidneys develop from intermediate mesoderm
• There are approximately 900,000 glomeruli in each kidney in normal
birth weight adults and as few as 225,000 in low birth weight adults
Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine. 18e
3. Embryologic Development
• Epithelial podocytes facing the urinary space envelop the exterior
basement membrane supporting these emerging endothelial
capillaries.
• Podocytes are partially polarized and periodically fall off into the
urinary space by epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and to a lesser
extent apoptosis, only to be replenished by migrating parietal
epithelia from Bowman's capsule.
• Failing replenishment results in heavy proteinuria.
Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine. 18e
4. Embryologic Development
• Between nephrons lies the renal interstitium.
• This region forms a functional space surrounding glomeruli and their
downstream tubules
• This has cells such as fibroblasts, dendritic cells, occasional lymphocytes, and
lipid-laden macrophages.
• The cortical and medullary capillaries, which siphon off solute and
water following tubular reclamation of glomerular filtrate, are also
part of the interstitial fabric.
Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine. 18e
5. Embryologic Development
• Each nephron is partitioned during embryologic development into a:
• Proximal tubule
• Descending and ascending limbs of the loop of Henle
• Distal tubule,
• Collecting duct.
• The majority of nephrons are cortical, with glomeruli located in the mid-to-
outer cortex. Fewer nephrons are juxtamedullary, with glomeruli at the
boundary of the cortex and outer medulla.
• Cortical nephrons perform most of the glomerular filtration because there
are more of them and because their afferent arterioles are larger than their
respective efferent arterioles.
Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine. 18e
6. Determinants and Regulation of Glomerular
Filtration
• Renal blood flow: 20% of the cardiac output, or 1000 mL/min.
• Blood reaches each nephron through the afferent arteriole leading into a
glomerular capillary where large amounts of fluid and solutes are filtered
to form the tubular fluid.
• The distal ends of the glomerular capillaries coalesce to form an efferent
arteriole.
• The distal capillaries empty into small venous branches that coalesce into
larger veins to eventually form the renal vein.
Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine. 18e
7. Determinants and Regulation of Glomerular
Filtration
• The hydrostatic pressure gradient across the glomerular capillary wall
is the primary driving force for glomerular filtration.
• Oncotic pressure within the capillary lumen, determined by the
concentration of unfiltered plasma proteins, partially offsets the
hydrostatic pressure gradient and opposes filtration.
Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine. 18e
8. Determinants and Regulation of Glomerular
Filtration
• Autoregulation of glomerular filtration is the result of three major
factors that modulate either afferent or efferent arteriolar tone:
• Autonomous vasoreactive (myogenic) reflex in the afferent arteriole:
• Constriction or dilatation of the afferent arteriole in response to increased or decreased
pressure, respectively.
• Tubuloglomerular feedback:
• Reflex vasoconstriction or dilatation of the afferent arteriole mediated by specialized
cells in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle called the macula densa that act as
sensors of solute concentration and tubular flow rate.
• Angiotensin II–mediated vasoconstriction of the efferent arteriole:
• During states of reduced renal blood flow, renin is released from granular cells within the
wall of the afferent arteriole near the macula densa in a region called the
juxtaglomerular apparatus.

15. Segmental Nephron Functions
• Proximal Tubule:
• Reabsorbing ~60% of filtered NaCl and water
• ~90% of filtered bicarbonate
• This process is saturable, resulting in urinary bicarbonate excretion when plasma levels
exceed the physiologically normal range (24–26 meq/L).
• Most critical nutrients such as glucose and amino acids.
• This process is also saturable, leading to glycosuria when plasma levels exceed 180–200
mg/dL
• Organic anions: urate, ketoacid anions, and several protein-bound drugs not
filtered at the glomerulus (penicillins, cephalosporins, and salicylates).
• Organic cations secreted by the proximal tubule include various biogenic
amine neurotransmitters (dopamine, acetylcholine, epinephrine,
norepinephrine, and histamine) and creatinine.
Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine. 18e
16. Loop of Henle
• Three major segments: descending thin limb, ascending thin limb,
and ascending thick limb.
• 15–25% of filtered NaCl is reabsorbed in the loop of Henle, mainly by
the thick ascending limb.
• Also contributes to reabsorption of calcium and magnesium ions.
Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine. 18e
17. Loop of Henle
• The descending thin limb is highly water permeable owing to dense
expression of constitutively active aquaporin-1 water channels.
• In the thick ascending limb, there is a high level of secondary active
salt transport enabled by the Na+/K+/2Cl–
• The loop of Henle contributes to urine-concentrating ability
Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine. 18e
18. Distal Convoluted Tubule
• Reabsorbs ~5% of the filtered NaCl.
• Thiazide-sensitive Na+/Cl– cotransporter
• Na+/Ca2+ exchange mediate calcium reabsorption in the distal
convoluted tubule. Ca2+ reabsorption is inversely related to Na+
reabsorption
Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine. 18e
19. Collecting Duct
• Cortical collecting duct:
• Contribute to reabsorbing ~4–5% of filtered Na+
• Principal cells are the main water, Na+-reabsorbing, and K+-secreting cells, and
the site of action of aldosterone, K+-sparing diuretics, and mineralocorticoid
receptor antagonists such as spironolactone.
• Type A intercalated cells mediate acid secretion and bicarbonate reabsorption
also under the influence of aldosterone.
• Type B intercalated cells mediate bicarbonate secretion and acid
reabsorption.
Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine. 18e
20. Collecting Duct
• Inner medullary collecting duct:
• Na+ reabsorption and K+ secretion
• Vasopressin-regulated water channels (aquaporin-2 on the apical membrane,
aquaporin-3 and -4 on the basolateral membrane).
• Vasopressin binds to the V2 receptor and promote increased water
permeability.
• Sodium reabsorption is also inhibited by the natriuretic peptides called atrial
natriuretic peptide producing natriuresis.
