Glomerular Diseases | Clinical Medicine

Ninja Nerds!
In this lecture, Professor Zach Murphy will present on Glomerular Diseases. We will begin by discussing the pathophysiology of glomerular disorders, focusing on both nephrotic and nephritic syndromes. This will include understanding the underlying mechanisms and causes, such as primary glomerular disorders and systemic diseases with secondary glomerular involvement. We will then transition into the complications that arise from these disorders, including edema, hypertension, renal failure, and hypercoagulability. Following this, we will cover the diagnostic approach to differentiate between nephrotic and nephritic syndromes, and how to identify the underlying causes. Finally, we will conclude this lecture with the treatment of glomerular disorders, focusing on both complications and the underlying diseases. We hope you enjoy this lecture.
