Renal — Flashcards

The _____ phase of gastric HCl secretion accounts for 60% of total HCl secreted

The _____ is the gradient of osmolarity from the cortex (300 mOsm/L) to the papilla (1200 mOsm/L)

In chronic renal failure, increased serum phosphate complexes Ca2+ and leads to decreased _____

Both central and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus are characterized by serum osmolality _____ 290 mOsm/kg

Hypocitraturia is often associated with _____ urine pH

In the thick ascending limb, NH4+ is reabsorbed and added to the _____ gradient

The bulk of K+ reabsorption occurs in the _____ (67%)

How does increased flow rate (e.g. diarrhea) affect K+ secretion in the colon? _____

Excretion rate can be calculated using the equation: Excretion rate = _____

Both central and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus are characterized by _____ urine osmolality
