Question

which of the following conditions are associated with nephritic syndrome?
abnormal glomerular cell proliferation resulting in massive uremia
glomerular filter alteration causing proteinuria and edema
glomerulopathy responsible for oliguria, hematuria, and hypertension
acute tubular necrosis resulting in ischemia and necrosis

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option:

• Option 1: Nephritic syndrome is not primarily about massive uremia from abnormal glomerular cell proliferation. Uremia is more associated with end - stage renal disease, and the main features of nephritic syndrome are different.
• Option 2: Proteinuria and edema are more characteristic of nephrotic syndrome, not nephritic syndrome. Nephrotic syndrome has massive proteinuria, while nephritic has hematuria as a key feature.
• Option 3: Nephritic syndrome is a type of glomerulopathy. Its classic manifestations include oliguria (due to decreased glomerular filtration rate), hematuria (blood in urine from glomerular damage), and hypertension (from fluid retention and renin - angiotensin system activation). This option matches the features of nephritic syndrome.
• Option 4: Acute tubular necrosis affects the renal tubules, not the glomeruli. Nephritic syndrome is a glomerular disorder, so this option is incorrect.

Answer:

C. glomerulopathy responsible for oliguria, hematuria, and hypertension
