Dietary salt restriction may be beneficial in the management of ADPKD。 - B. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) are the first-line antihypertensive drugs in ADPKD。 - C. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is more effective and safe than acetaminophen or tramadol for cystic pain relief in ADPKD patients。 - D. Oral tolvaptan can slow the increase in total kidney volume and the decline in kidney function of ADPKD patients。 - E. ADPKD patients can be a recipient for renal transplantation。 ### Correct Answer: C 詳解: ![](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/ryF3tWSSn.png) (A) We advise all PKD patients to restrict dietary sodium, with a goal of 2 grams intake per day or less. In order to ensure adherence, the authors measure a 24-hour urine sodium and obtain a nutrition consult at least once during the course of the management. Ref: Uptodate:Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD): Treatment (A) CRISP study:Adherence to dietary sodium restriction, as reflected by degree of reduction in urinary sodium, was moderate and variable among participants. Higher sodium excretion was associated with an increased risk of kidney growth and eGFR decline Ref: Dietary salt restriction is beneficial to the management of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (B) ACE inhibitor should be the initial antihypertensive agent. PATHOGENESIS:Increased activity of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and extracellular volume expansion are often present early in ADPKD (prior to loss of kidney function) and may play an important role in the rise in blood pressure. It has been suggested that cyst expansion, leading to focal areas of kidney ischemia and enhanced renin release Ref: Uptodate:Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD): Evaluation and management of hypertension (C) No specific treatment is required in most PKD people with dull or persistent flank and abdominal pain; pain medications such as acetaminophen are often recommended. The use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen or naproxen, is not recommended, (D) Tolvaptan is a vasopressin V2-receptor (V2R) antagonist with proven beneficial results in ADPKD Mechanism: In animal models, vasopressin activates the V2R, triggering a cascade of cellular proliferation, thereby leading to cystogenesis. Conversely, sustained suppression of vasopressin production, release, or action results in lower cyst burden, preserved kidney function Candidates for treatment:eGFR) ≥25 mL/min1.73 m2 and who are at risk of rapid progression as below: Mayo classes 1C, 1D, or 1E; Age ≤55 years and an eGFR <65 mL/min/1.73 m2 Kidney length >16.5 cm in a patient aged <50 years PROPKD score >6 Ref: Uptodate:Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD): Treatment (E) Patients with ADPKD and ESKD have equivalent, or perhaps better, overall outcomes with any kidney replacement therapy compared with non-ADPKD patients. Suitable for kidney transplant Intracranial aneurysms occur in approximately 5 to 20 percent of patients with ADPKD. Pre-OP screening was needed ## Question 56: 56.A 54 y/o diabetic female patient with 4 days of fever, respiratory symptoms and dyspnea. At emergency service, physical examination revealed postural hypotension, tachycardia, and Kussmaul respiration. Laboratory tests were: blood glucose level of 385 mg/dL. The arterial pH is 7.35, pCO₂ is 22 mm Hg,pO₂ 86 mmHg, HCO₃⁻ 14 mEq/L. Serum electrolyte values were: Na 130 meq/L; K 5.1 meq/L; Cl 96 meq/L; Chest x-ray film indicated consolidation of bilateral lower lobe. Which of the following statements is most likely to be true? (1)The patient has respiratory acidosis, possibly related to pneumonia (2)The patient has metabolic acidosis, possibly related to diabetes (3)The patient has respiratory alkalosis, possibly related to pneumonia (4)The anion gap is still within normal range (5)Be cautious with hyperphospatemia during combined insulin and glucose therapy --- - A. (1)+(2)+(5)。 - B. (1)+(2)+(4)+(5)。 - C. (2)+(3)+(5)。 - D. (2)+(3)。 - E. (2)+(3)+(4)。 ### Correct Answer: D 詳解: The arterial pH is 7.35, pCO₂ is 22 mm Hg,pO₂ 86 mmHg, HCO₃⁻ 14 mEq/L 第一步看PH值 7.35 偏酸 第二步看代償 HCO₃⁻ 低為代謝酸 ↓PaCO ₂=1.25*△[HCO₃⁻ ] -> 1.25*10=12.5 ± 2 △ PaCO ₂ =40-22=18>14.5 合併呼吸鹼 Na 130 meq/L; K 5.1 meq/L; Cl 96 meq/L 第三步看陰離子間隙(AG) AG=[Na]-([CI]+[HCO₃⁻])=130-(96+14)=20 △ AG=20-10=10, △ [HCO₃⁻]=10,比值為1 Only High anion gap acidosis (5)Increased insulin levels promote the transport of both glucose and phosphate into skeletal muscle and liver. However, in normal subjects the administration of insulin or glucose leads only to a slight decrement of serum Pi levels. Ref:Medication-induced hypophosphatemia: a review In DKA treatment:we do not recommend the routine use of phosphate replacement. However, phosphate replacement should be strongly considered if severe hypophosphatemia occurs (serum phosphate concentration below 1 mg/dL) Ref: Diabetic ketoacidosis and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state in adults: Treatment ## Question 57: 57.A middle aged woman was referred to renal clinic for evaluation of her renal disorder. She had intermittent pre-tibial swelling for almost 3 months. She has mild hypertension, but no diabetes. Neither viral hepatitis B nor C history. Laboratory tests were: albumin 3.1 g/dL, creatinine 1.7 mg/dL, Both serum complement levels (C3 and C4) are low, with a particularly depressed C4 compared with C3. Which of the following should be considered ? --- - A. Cryoglobulinemia。 - B. Post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis。 - C. Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis。 - D. Lupus nephritis, stage III or V。 - E. Infectious endocarditis or shunt nephritis。 ### Correct Answer: A 詳解: (A) 題目中 with a particularly depressed C4 compared with C3 為關鍵提示 Type I cryoglobulins typically produce few serologic complement abnormalities. Mixed cryoglobulinemia sera often demonstrate reduced levels of total hemolytic complement (CH50) and early complement proteins C1q, C2, and C4, particularly in type II cryoglobulinemia. Levels of C3 are generally unaffected or only mildly diminished Ref: Uptodate:Overview of cryoglobulins and cryoglobulinemia ![](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/B1ZoqWrr2.png) ## Question 58: 58.Struvite stones occurs in patients of repeated urinary tract infections (UTI) from bacteria that produce the enzyme urease, including both gram-positive and gram-negative species. Which is the least possible micropathogen causing struvite stone and repeated UTI? --- - A. Klebsiella spp。 - B. Escherichia coli。 - C. Mycoplasma spp。 - D. Staphylococcus epidermidis。 - E. Proteus。 ### Correct Answer: B 詳解: Struvite (magnesium ammonium phosphate) stones are a subset of kidney stones that form as a result of UTI with urease-producing pathogens Bacteria that produce the enzyme urease, including both gram-positive and gram-negative species from genera such as Proteus, Staphylococcus, Pseudomonas, Providencia, and Klebsiella Ref: Renal struvite stones—pathogenesis, microbiology, and management strategies (C) A genital mycoplasma, is predominantly located in the human genito-urinary tract and produces urease. Its possible role in the formation of infection stones was studied in the rat model described by Friedlander and Braude ## Question 59: 59.Which are correct statements regarding hyperuricemia and related nephropathy? (1)The renal tubular transporters responsible for determining how much of the filtered uric acid is actually excreted are located in the distal nephron (2)Renal clearance of uric acid can be inhibited by the angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors or by β-Blockers. (3)Initiation of colchicine can induce acute flares of gout (4)Initiation of allopurinol or febuxostat can induce acute flares of gout (5)Routine use of allopurinol (100-300 mg/day) in patients with stage 3-4 CKD can slow kidney disease progression --- - A. (1)+(2)+(4)+(5)。 - B. (1)+(4)+(5)。 - C. (2)+(3)。 - D. (2)+(4)。 - E. (2)+(4)+(5)。 ### Correct Answer: D 詳解: (1) Reabsorption 與secretion 都主要在proximal tubule進行 ![](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/rydSs-rH3.png) ![](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/BJa8sZrr3.png) (2) Current use of diuretics, β blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, and non-losartan angiotensin II receptor blockers among those with hypertension were all associated with an increased risk of developing gout. (Losartan reduces serum uric acid levels by 20-25% by producing a uricosuric effect) (3) Colchicine可用於gout flares 以及prophylaxis during initiation of urate-lowering therapy (4) An acute fall in serum urate concentration often precipitates a gout flare. A tenable explanation for the mechanism is that urate lowering disrupts the physical state and/or surface chemical composition of preformed crystal deposits and thus makes the component crystals interactive with local cells competent in initiating IL1-mediated acute inflammatory responses emanating from activation of toll-like receptors and the formation of NALP3 inflammasomes (Ref: Uptodate: Pharmacologic urate-lowering therapy and treatment of tophi in patients with gout) (5) In patients with chronic kidney disease and a high risk of progression, urate-lowering treatment with allopurinol did not slow the decline in eGFR as compared with placebo.(Ref: Badve SV et al. Effects of allopurinol on the progression of chronic kidney disease. N Engl J Med 2020 Jun 25; 382:2504.) ## Question 60: 60.A 26-year-old girl of type I diabetes had poor appetite and body weight loss for 3 kg (6%) in recent one month. After admission, she received partial parenteral nutrition due to anorexia and poor oral intake. Hypophosphatemia (0.8 mg/dL) was noticed on the third day of admission. The most likely mechanism for her acute hypophosphatemia is: --- - A. Acute stage of diabetic ketoacidosis。 - B. Hungry bone syndrome。 - C. Primary hypoparathyroidism。 - D. Renal phosphate wasting。 - E. Shift of phosphorus into intracellular stores ### Correct Answer: E 詳解: ![](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/BkF2oWHBh.png) (A) In DKA, net (urinary) loss of phosphate occurs because of a transcellular shift, osmotic diuresis and reduced renal phosphate reabsorption by the Na-Pi transporters in the renal proximal tubule (due to acidosis and hyperglycemia). During insulin and fluid repletion in the treatment phase of DKA, phosphate shifts from the extracellular to the intracellular compartment, worsening hypophosphatemia. Ref: van der Vaart A et al. Incidence and determinants of hypophosphatemia in diabetic ketoacidosis: an observational study. BMJ Open Diabetes Research and Care 2021;9:e002018. doi: 10.1136/bmjdrc-2020-002018 (B) Hungry bone syndrome: Parathyroidectomy in patients with preexisting osteopenia can rarely result in marked deposition of calcium and phosphate in bone in the immediate postoperative period. Probably results from acute reversal of the PTH-induced contribution of bone to maintenance of the serum calcium concentration. In the high turnover state associated with hyperparathyroidism, PTH increases bone formation and resorption with a net efflux of calcium from bone. Sudden withdrawal of PTH causes an imbalance between osteoblast-mediated bone formation and osteoclast-mediated bone resorption, leading to a marked net increase in bone uptake of calcium, phosphate, and magnesium Ref: Uptodate: Hungry bone syndrome following parathyroidectomy in end-stage kidney disease patients (C) Most patients with hypoparathyroidism have an elevated serum phosphorus level (D) There are several rare syndromes characterized by isolated renal phosphate wasting. The resulting hypophosphatemia is the primary cause of rickets (E) Refeeding syndrome: the clinical complications that can occur as a result of fluid and electrolyte shifts during aggressive nutritional rehabilitation of malnourished patients. The pathogenesis of hypophosphatemia begins when stores of phosphate are depleted during episodes of anorexia nervosa and starvation. When nutritional replenishment starts and patients are fed carbohydrates, glucose causes release of insulin, which triggers cellular uptake of P (K, Mg) and a decrease in serum phosphorous levels. Insulin also causes cells to produce a variety of molecules that require P (eg, ATP and 2,3-diphosphoglycerate), which further depletes the body’s stores of phosphate Ref: Uptodate: Anorexia nervosa in adults and adolescents: The refeeding syndrome ## Question 61: 61.A 50-year-old male visited outpatient clinic due to difficult-to-control hypertension. After initial work up, hypokalemic hypertensive disorder was impressed, Further laboratory evaluation of adrenal hormones including plasma renin, aldosterone, cortisol, and androgen levels were arranged to distinguish among specific diagnoses. The results are: high renin level, high aldosterone level, an aldosterone-to-renin ratio of 10 : 1 ; and a normal serum cortisol level Which is the most possible diagnosis? --- - A. ACTH-secreting tumor。 - B. Bartter syndrome。 - C. Liddle syndrome。 - D. Primary hyperaldosteronism。 - E. Unilateral renal artery stenosis。 ### Correct Answer: E 詳解: (A) Cortisol level 應會升高 (B) Bartter syndrome: result from a defect in sodium chloride reabsorption in the cortical and medullary thick ascending limbs of the loop of Henle. Patients have low to normal blood pressure, despite activation of the renin-angiotensin system. Low to normal blood pressure results from chronic extracellular fluid volume depletion caused by salt wasting along the thick ascending limb and paradoxical vasodilation. Volume-independent production of renin by juxtaglomerular cells contributes to hyperreninemia in patients with the Bartter-like phenotype. Decreased sodium chloride entry into macula densa cells also stimulates renin production. This volume-independent hyperreninemia, in combination with chronic extracellular fluid volume depletion, is responsible for the high circulating levels of angiotensin II and aldosterone. Ref: Uptodate: Inherited hypokalemic salt-losing tubulopathies: Pathophysiology and overview of clinical manifestations (B) Bartter syndrome: ![](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/ryAIhZSHh.png) (C) Liddle‘s syndrome: rare genetic disorders associated with abnormalities in the function of the collecting tubule sodium channel. The genetic abnormality in Liddle's syndrome involves gain-of-function mutations to SCNN1A, SCNN1B, and SCNN1G, which encode the alpha, beta, and gamma subunits of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC), respectively. Deletions or substitutions in a short proline-rich segment of the intracytoplasmic C-terminus cause an inability of these subunits to bind with an intracellular ubiquitin protein ligase (Nedd4) that normally removes the luminal sodium channel from the cell surfac. Failure to remove sodium channels results in an inability to reduce their number in response to low levels of aldosterone that result from the volume expansion-mediated suppression of renin secretion. These mutations result in a "gain-of-function" that mimics the effects of hyperaldosteronism. The consistent findings among such individuals are low plasma renin activity and, in contrast to primary aldosteronism, reductions in both the plasma aldosterone concentration and urinary excretion of aldosterone (Ref: Uptodate: Genetic disorders of the collecting tubule sodium channel: Liddle's syndrome) (D) The plasma renin concentration are typically very low (due in part to the associated mild volume expansion) in patients with primary aldosteronism. The mean value for the aldosterone-to-renin ratio in normal subjects and patients with primary hypertension is 4 to 10. In general, a aldosterone-to-renin ratio greater than 20 is considered suspicious for primary aldosteronism, although others use a cutoff criterion of 30 Ref: Uptodate: Diagnosis of primary aldosteronism (E) ![](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/rJgi2bSr3.png) ## Question 62: 62.Laboratory indices for differentiation of prerenal versus Intrinsic renal azotemia.

High renal failure index (UNa/UCr/PCr) >1。 - E. Urinary sediment analysis reveals a lot of muddy-brown granular casts and casts containing tubular epithelial cells。 ### Correct Answer: B 詳解: ![](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/B1IR3WBS3.png) ![](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/H1VJaZSB2.png) ## Question 63: 63.下列何種情況會造成高血磷症(Hyperphosphatemia)? (1)維生素D 中毒 (2)代謝性鹼中毒 (3)原發性副甲狀腺機能亢進 (4)嚴重低血鎂症(Severe hypomagnesemia)) (5)腫瘤溶解症候群(tumor lysis syndrome,TLS) --- - A. (1)+(2)+(4)。 - B. (1)+(3)+(5)。 - C. (2)+(3)+(4)。 - D. (2)+(3)+(5)。 - E. (1)+(4)+(5)。 ### Correct Answer: E 詳解: Ref: Uptodate: Overview of the causes and treatment of hyperphosphatemia Ref: J Clin Invest. 1964 Jan;43(1):138-49. doi: 10.1172/JCI104888. (1) Vitamin D increases intestinal phosphate and calcium absorption, and the rise in serum calcium concentration diminishes urinary phosphate excretion, both by inhibiting PTH secretion and, in many cases, by impairing kidney function (in part due to direct renal vasoconstriction). (2) The fall in partial pressure of carbon dioxide during acute respiratory alkalosis results in intracellular pH stimulates phosphofructokinase activity which in turn stimulates glycolysis and increases the formation of phosphorylated carbohydrate compounds in the liver and skeletal muscle, serum phosphate concentrations fall rapidly. (3) Any cause of hypersecretion of PTH can lead to hypophosphatemia. PTH increases phosphate excretion by diminishing activity of sodium-phosphate cotransporters. Most patients with primary hyperparathyroidism have mild hypophosphatemia. (4) Low magnesium levels impair PTH release in response to hypocalcemia. Diminished PTH secretion appears to require more severe hypomagnesemia. Deficient PTH secretion results in increased phosphate reabsorption and leads to hyperphosphatemia. (5) The phosphorus concentration in malignant cells is up to four times higher than in normal cells. Thus, rapid tumor breakdown often leads to hyperphosphatemia, which can cause secondary hypocalcemia, leading to tetany or seizures. ![](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/r1PHaWSHh.png) ## Question 64: 64.一位74歲糖尿病女性患者合併慢性腎臟病第四期,長期服用口服降血糖用藥搭配胰島素控制,由於意識不清醒被送到急診就醫,經檢查有代謝性酸中毒(metabolic acidosis),其陰離子隙(anion gap)為 26mmol/L,經積極使用碳酸氫鈉(sodium bicarbonate)矯正,仍無法控正,下列何種用口服降血糖藥物可能為誘發的原因? --- - A. 二肽基肽酶-4抑制劑(Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor)。 - B. 過氧化物酶體增殖物活化受體γ(PPAR-γ)。 - C. α-葡萄糖苷酶抑制劑(α-glucosidase inhibitor)。 - D. 二甲雙胍類降血糖藥物 (Metformin)。 - E. 磺醯基尿素(sulfonylurea)。 ### Correct Answer: D 詳解: ![](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/S1o_T-SS2.png) Ref: J Nephrol. 2016 Dec;29(6):783-789 Metformin (MF) accumulation during acute kidney injury is associated with high anion gap lactic acidosis type B (MF-associated lactic acidosis, MALA) Despite dose adjustment for renal failure, diabetic patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage III-IV are at risk for rapid decline in renal function by whatever reason, so that MF toxicity might arise if the drug is not timely withdrawn ## Question 65: 65.一位 60歲男性高血壓肥胖患者,近幾個月血壓升高以 4種降壓劑控制,血壓為166/92 mmHg。病患無家族高血壓病史,一年前檢查雙側腎在大小一致約 11cm,腎臟功能正常。安排腎臟超音波檢查後發現: 右腎10.6 cm, 左腎 8.6 cm,血液生化檢驗顯示:肌酸酐(Creatinine) 2.0 mg/dL。以下敘述,何者最正確? --- - A. 9成以上患者在理學檢查有腹部雜音(bruit)且檢查血鉀[K]通常會升高。 - B. 如果腹部雜音偏側化或延伸到整個收縮期到舒張期,則它更有可能在血流動力學上具有顯著意義。 - C. 用核磁共振血管攝影(MRA)影像檢查,如果發現renal artery stenosis,通常以fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD)型最常見。 - D. 降壓劑中,以ACEI 或ARB類為首選用藥。 - E. 高血壓的原因屬先天性異常,與血清膽固醇較無關係,無需使用 HMG-CoA還原酶抑制劑(statins)控制膽固醇。 ### Correct Answer: B 詳解: Ref: 2017 ESC Guidelines on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Peripheral Arterial Diseases’European Heart Journal, Volume 39, Issue 9, 1 March 2018, Pages 763–816 (A) Renal hypoperfusion causes a BP increase secondary to activation of the sympathetic nervous systemand the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS), thus increase potassium secretion (B) Abdominal bruit is common in normotensive patients aged 15–30 years. high-pitched systolic-diastolic bruit is distinctive for renovascular hypertension and is uncommon in essential hypertension (C) Age>50 male, more likely to be atherosclerosis type ![](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/H1ePCZSH2.png) (D) ![](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/B1ku0ZBB2.png) (E) Statins are associated with improved survival, slower lesion progression and reduced restenosis risk after renal stenting ## Question 66: 66.有關慢性間質性腎臟病常見之臨床表現,下列敘述何者正確(應選出所有答案) (1)范康尼氏症候群(Fanconi syndrome) (2)寡尿(Oliguria)與等張尿(isosthenuria)(3)貧血 (4)高陰離子間隙代謝性酸中毒合併低血鉀 (5)腎病症候群 --- - A.

E.應先釐清AKI原因 ## Question 68: 68. 一名 23 歲的男性研究生,因一次無痛性明顯血尿由學校保健中心轉診到腎臟科門診。他身體健康,沒有明顯的家族史。身體診察時血壓正常,無其他異常。追蹤實驗室檢查顯示生化及血液學正常、腎功能檢查正常,以及尿培養陰性。血清免疫學檢測包括補體、抗核抗體(ANA)、抗中性粒細胞胞漿抗體(ANCA)和肝炎檢測均呈陰性。尿液試紙檢查顯示:潛血(2+)和蛋白質(+),顯微鏡檢查中有少許型變RBC 但並無RBC cast。他的腎臟超音波檢查是正常的。1 週後重複體檢和實驗室檢查顯示尿液潛血1+ 和紅血球細胞5至8個紅細胞和微量尿蛋白,定量為 150 毫克/天。下列何者是最適當建議 --- - A. 繼續追蹤觀察。 - B. 腎臟組織切片檢查。 - C. 對患者及其家屬進行基因檢測。 - D. 開始類固醇經驗性治療。 - E. 泌尿科轉診查明原因。 ### Correct Answer: A Ref: Uptodate(Etiology and evaluation of hematuria in adults; Isolated and persistent glomerular hematuria in adults) -Dysmorphic RBC (+) → Glomerular hematuria ![](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/BJkIJGSS3.png) -Isolated glomerular hematuria: asymptomatic patient who has a normal rate of albumin excretion, a normal serum creatinine concentration, and normal blood pressure -Isolated hematuria should initially be reexamined over a period of one to four weeks to ascertain if the hematuria is persistent, because transient hematuria is a relatively common finding over time in adults and may be induced by factors such as exercise or infection -Most adult cases of persistent isolated hematuria due to glomerular disease are attributable to immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy, Alport syndrome, or thin basement membrane nephropathy. Less common causes: mild postinfectious glomerulonephritis, C3 glomerulopathy ![](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/BJyYJMrrh.png) -§ A kidney biopsy can help to distinguish between the most common causes of isolated and persistent glomerular hematuria. However, the risks of kidney biopsy should be weighed against the potential benefits of establishing a diagnosis (eg, predicting prognosis and genetic counseling in patients found to have Alport syndrome) and potential therapies. Since there are no specific therapies for patients with Alport syndrome, thin basement membrane nephropathy, or IgA nephropathy with isolated hematuria, patients should be informed that conservative monitoring (ie, urinalysis and measurement of serum creatinine and urine protein excretion on an annual basis) is also an option, and a kidney biopsy can be deferred until the patient develops signs of progressive renal disease (eg, increasing serum creatinine or urine albumin excretion >30 mg/day). ## Question 69: 69.一名 68歲患有腎病症候群女性(尿蛋白3 .5 g/天,腎功能正常,血清白蛋白2 .2 g/dL)最近經腎臟切片診斷為膜性腎病變(membranous nephropathy)。血清PLA2R 檢測和腎組織染色呈均為陰性。以下相關的敘述何者「錯誤」 --- - A. 進一步調查應包括惡性腫瘤檢查。 - B. 患者應開始交替使用環磷醯胺(cyclophosphamide)和類固醇。 - C. 發生血栓事件的風險很大,出血風險低的患者可以考慮預防性抗凝劑。 - D. 她應該接受B 型肝炎篩查,已知B 型肝炎與膜性腎病有關。 - E. 如果經過 6 個月後其蛋白尿仍保持目前狀況,她的腎臟功能可能出現進行性腎病的風險 ### Correct Answer: B 詳解: - A.

The macula densa uses the composition of the tubular fluid as an indicator of GFR. A large sodium chloride concentration is indicative of an elevated GFR, while low sodium chloride concentration indicates a depressed GFR. Sodium chloride is sensed by the macula densa mainly by an apical Na-K-2Cl cotransporter (NKCC2). The usual situation that causes a reduction in reabsorption of NaCl via the NCC2 at the macula densa (DCT) is a low tubular lumen concentration of NaCl due to low GFR. Reduced NaCl uptake via the NCC2 at the macula densa leads to increased renin release, which leads to restoration of plasma volume, and to dilation of the afferent arterioles, which leads to increased renal plasma flow and increased GFR.
