Cystitis is an inflammation of the bladder, often caused by a bacterial infection. Pyelonephritis is a more serious infection that affects the kidneys and occurs when a urinary tract infection spreads upward from the bladder to the kidneys. Pyelonephritis may cause more severe symptoms than cystitis and can lead to complications if not treated promptly.
pyelonephritis is an urinary tract infection that has reached the pyelum (pelvis) of the kidney.Pyelonephritis is an infection of the kidney.
Pyelonephritis is typically treated with antibiotics to eliminate the infection. Drinking plenty of fluids and getting plenty of rest is also recommended to help the body recover. In severe cases, hospitalization may be required for intravenous antibiotics and monitoring.
Pili are thin, hair-like projections on the surface of organisms such as bacteria. The pyelonephritis-associated pili, or PAP, of uropathogenic E. coli (which is the major cause of urinary tract infections) are homologous to type I pili, which is composed of pilin subunits and binds to mannose residues on host cell surfaces. PAP, however, are more thin and flexible and bind to the human receptor GBO4.
Lungs A bleb is due to the rupture of the wall of the alveolus, allowing air to escape into the alveolar layer of the pleura. With a bulla, there is distention of the alveoli with atrophy, followed by rupture and the formation of an unusually large air filled cavity. Blebs and bullae can be single, multiple, small or distended enough to occupy an entire hemithorax. Frequently bilateral and usually associated with a generalized pulmonary emphysema. Note: The majority of emphysematous blebs are caused by cigarette smoking.
The prefix of pyelonephritis is "pyelo-".
Pyelonephritis is often associated with the reflux of urine from the bladder to the upper urinary tract
The diagnosis of pyelonephritis is based on the patient's history, a physical examination, and the results of laboratory and imaging tests
Acute pyelonephritis is most common in adult females but can affect people of either sex and any age
bacteremia (bacterial invasion of the bloodstream), hypertension, chronic pyelonephritis and even permanent kidney damage.
Urinary retention can predispose someone with MS to urinary tract infection, including pyelonephritis.
If the patient has pyelonephritis, the urine tests will show the presence of white blood cells, and bacteria in the urine
glomerulonephritis is inflammation of the glomeruli in the kidneys however, pyelonephritis is inflammation of the kidney(s). They are both due to infection.
