Rapidly progressive nephritic syndrome : diffuse membranous glomerulonephritis - what does this mean

Rapidly progressive nephritic syndrome is caused by diffuse membranous glomerulonephritis, which is an autoimmune disorder that causes inflammation in the glomeruli of the kidneys. the inflammation leads to the formation of thickened membranes in the glomeruli, which can cause proteinuria, edema, and eventually kidney failure.

What happens during the disease - rapidly progressive nephritic syndrome : diffuse membranous glomerulonephritis

Rapidly progressive nephritic syndrome is caused by diffuse membranous glomerulonephritis, which is an autoimmune disorder in which the body's own antibodies attack the glomeruli, the tiny filtering units of the kidneys. this leads to inflammation and scarring of the glomeruli, resulting in decreased kidney function and increased levels of protein in the urine. in addition, the disease can cause high blood pressure, edema, and electrolyte imbalances.
