| Nervousness and stress can increase blood pressure which in turn will increase glomerular filtration. |
| The glomerular tufts were shrunken or necrotic and renal medullary rays were congested. |
| In general, tubulointerstitial diseases progress more slowly than do glomerular diseases, diabetic and hypertensive nephropathy, and polycystic kidney disease. |
| Polymorphonuclear leukocyte infiltrates were present in the glomerular tufts, and many glomeruli displayed segmental necrosis. |
| In birds, the process of urinary concentration involves dilution of glomerular filtrate by the reabsorption of sodium chloride in the thick ascending limb of looped nephrons. |
| This filtration occurs from the glomerular capillaries into the Bowman's capsule to form tubular fluid. |
