| The glomerular tufts were shrunken or necrotic and renal medullary rays were congested. |
| In addition to hydrostatic pressure, GFR is influenced by glomerular plasma osmotic pressure. |
| Renin is secreted from the juxtaglomerular apparatus of the kidney in response to glomerular underperfusion or a reduced salt intake. |
| This filtration occurs from the glomerular capillaries into the Bowman's capsule to form tubular fluid. |
| In general, tubulointerstitial diseases progress more slowly than do glomerular diseases, diabetic and hypertensive nephropathy, and polycystic kidney disease. |
| Men's kidneys have larger glomeruli than women's and they have a greater glomerular volume. |
