The document describes urine formation and mechanisms of reabsorption and secretion in the kidney. It discusses how the glomerular filtration rate is normally 125-250 ml/min. It explains that the proximal convoluted tubule reabsorbs the maximum amount of filtrate, around 65%. Modes of reabsorption include active transport, passive transport, pinocytosis and osmosis. Glucose, amino acids, sodium, and other substances are actively transported, while urea and water diffuse passively.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Urine formation II.pptx
1. Urine formation II
Dr. Sai Sailesh Kumar G
Associate Professor
Department of Physiology
R.D. Gardi Medical College, Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh.
Email: dr.goothy@gmail.com
2. The student should be able to
Describe urine formation
Explain the mechanism of reabsorption
Explain the mechanism of secretion
7. Modes of reabsorption
The following mechanisms are available
1. Active transport – primary and secondary
2. Passive transport – Diffusion, facilitated diffusion
3. Pinocytosis
4. Osmosis
5. Solvent drag
8. Modes of reabsorption
The following mechanisms are available
1. Active transport – glucose, amino acids, sodium etc
2. Passive transport – urea and water
3. Pinocytosis – Traces of albumin and other proteins
4. Substances can be absorbed transcellularly or paracellularly
9.
10. Transport maximum (TM)
Maximum amount of the substance that is absorbed by tubules (both
the kidneys) in one minute
TM refers to the limitation of the tubular capacity to transport or
reabsorb substances actively
TMG – transport maximum for glucose – normal value is 375 mg/min
in males and 300 mg/min in females
11. Threshold substances
These gets excreted in urine when its concentration in the plasma
reaches a critical level
High threshold substances and low threshold substances
High threshold substances – glucose, sodium, calcium, potassium,
magnesium, amino acids etc.
Low threshold substances – urea, uric acid, phosphates
13. Reabsorption from PCT
Most substances absorbed in PCT to the maximum extent
65% of the fluid and other substances are absorbed in PCT
At the end of PCT, the fluid remains isotonic to plasma
14. Glucose absorption
Glucose is completely absorbed by PCT by secondary active transport
Sodium and glucose are co-transported from the lumen into the cell
Sodium-glucose transporter-2 (SGLT-2)
From the cells sodium is pumped into lateral intercellular space in
exchange for potassium
Glucose is absorbed either into the lateral intercellular space or
directly passes into the blood through the basal region by facilitated
diffusion by the GLUT-2 transporter (Glucose transporter-2).
15.
16. Glucose absorption
Energy required for glucose transport is provided by sodium pump
Sodium and glucose are co-transported from the lumen into the cell
At a blood glucose level of 100 mg/dl, filtered glucose load is 180
g/day and the entire load is reabsorbed
Glucose exhibits a transport maximum
Normal – 375 mg/min
The excess appears in the urine
17. Renal splay
Glucose exhibits a transport maximum
Normal – 375 mg/min
Theoretically the excess appears in the urine
But practically, glucose appears in the urine when blood concentration
exceeds 180 mg/100ml
This anomaly between the predicted value and practical value is called
renal splay
Why renal splay?
18.
19. Renal splay
Why renal splay?
All nephrons may not have the same TMG. Some have low TMG
Heterogenicity in size, length of PCT, and number of carrier
proteins for glucose absorption
20. Amino acids absorption
All amino acids are essential for the body
All are absorbed by PCT
Absorbed by co-transport with sodium
21. Oligo peptides and proteins absorption
99% of filtered oligo peptides are reabsorbed in PCT
Absorbed by co-transport with H+
Oligo peptide/ H+ cotransporter
Other proteins like albumin, lysozyme glucagon, etc are absorbed
by endocytosis
24. Phosphates absorption
Absorbed by the active transport mechanism
A small amount is absorbed passively
80% absorbed by PCT by cotransport
10% participate in acid-base balance
15-20% excreted in urine
25. Uric acid absorption
Normal plasma level 3-7 mg/100ml
Absorbed and also secreted in the PCT
10% of the filtered uric acid is excreted in urine
26. Vitamins and ketone bodies absorption
Absorbed by active transport mechanism
27. Water absorption
Water absorbed passively along with ions
This type of absorption is called obligatory water reabsorption
67% of water is absorbed in PCT
K+ and Ca++ are absorbed by solvent drag along with water
28. Water absorption
Water absorbed passively along with ions
This type of absorption is called obligatory water reabsorption
67% of water is absorbed in PCT
K+ and Ca++ are absorbed by solvent drag along with water
Two-thirds of water reabsorption occurs through the
transcellular pathway and one-third by the paracellular pathway
29. Sodium absorption
67% of filtered sodium is reabsorbed from PCT
Rest 33% pass through other parts of the nephron
25% is absorbed in LH
8% from DCT and CD
PCT lumen has large amount of sodium
The interior of cell contains less sodium
So there is a diffusion of sodium into the cell by concentration
and electrical gradient
30. Sodium absorption
Sodium is co-transported into the cell along with glucose, amino
acids, lactate and in exchange with H+ secretion.
Some amount of sodium is absorbed by solvent drag along with
water paracellularly
From the cell sodium is pumped into the lateral inter cellular
space by active transport
Sodium –potassium pump is responsible
31.
32. Bicarbonate absorption
1. CO2 is hydrated in the epithelial cells to H2CO3
2. This splits up into H+ and HCO3-
3. HCO3- is absorbed along with sodium
4. H+ secreted into the lumen
5. In lumen it combines with HCO3- and forms H2CO3
6. This is converted to CO2 and H2O
7. Both are absorbed
33.
34. Potassium absorption
K+ is absorbed by both active and passive transport mechanisms
In PCT 60% of the filtered potassium is absorbed actively and 7%
passively by solvent drag
20% absorbed in LH
Rest is excreted in urine
35. Urea absorption
Blood urea level is 20-40 mg/100mL
50% of filtered urea is absorbed from PCT passively
Rest passes to collecting ducts
38. Reabsorption from LH
LH is interposed between PCT and DCT
Mainly concerned with the development of osmotic gradient in the
medullary interstitium
About 35% of filtered fluid enters LH
About 15% is absorbed in LH
LH is arranged like a hairpin with both the limbs close and parallel
Fluid flows in two opposite directions
Fluid gets concentrated in the descending limb due to passive
absorption of water
39. Water absorption
Fluid gets concentrated in the descending limb due to passive
absorption of water
Absorption is due to presence of peritubular hypertonic fluid
This is called osmotic water reabsorption
40. Absorption of Na+, Ca++, K+, Cl-, Mg++
Sodium and chloride are absorbed passively from the thin
ascending limb of LH
Sodium, Potassium, and chloride are absorbed by active
transporters through symporter in the thick ascending limb of LH
Sodium-Hydrogen anti-porter also helps in the absorption of the
sodium from the thick ascending limb of LH
Calcium, magnesium, and small amounts of sodium and
potassium are absorbed passively by the paracellular pathway
