Acute nephritic syndrome : diffuse mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis - what does this mean
Acute nephritic syndrome is a type of diffuse mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis, which is caused by the immune system attacking the glomeruli in the kidneys. this leads to the glomeruli becoming inflamed and swollen, which affects the filtration of waste products from the blood, resulting in proteinuria, hematuria, edema, and hypertension.
What happens during the disease - acute nephritic syndrome : diffuse mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis
Acute nephritic syndrome is caused by a diffuse mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis, which is an inflammatory process that affects the glomeruli of the kidneys. this inflammatory process causes the glomeruli to become inflamed and swollen, which leads to a decrease in the filtration of waste and fluid from the blood and an increase in protein levels in the urine. this can lead to a wide range of symptoms, including swelling, hypertension, and renal failure.
