ahmm....the result is in your book!
will result in an increase in the firm's cost of capital.
sudden increase in demand.
yes because increase in supply will cause decrease in price so the purchasing power of consumer will increase as a result of surplus
If a good is normal, an increase in income will lead to an increase in demand for the good.
Dilation of the afferent arteriole increases blood flow into the glomerulus, leading to an increase in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) due to the increased pressure on the filtration membrane. This can result in increased urine production.
Generally speaking, it would increase. However, it depends on the reason for the hypertension. For instance, if there is an obstruction or constriction of the renal artery (stenosis, malignancy, etc...) the physiologic affect would to increase the body's BP. This is due to the fact that the obstruction is decreasing hydrostatic pressure to the glomerulus, and transiently decreasing GFR. The body compensates by increasing BP to increase GFR. Patients that present with a renal artery stenosis could in fact be hypertensive with a decreased GFR.
To increase your glomerular filtration rate, blood flow needs to be increased to the kidneys and the impaired kidneys function restored. The glomerular filtration rate, of GFR, measures how much blood passes through the glomeruli into the kidneys each minute.
A decrease in plasma protein concentration can reduce the oncotic pressure in the blood vessels, leading to less water reabsorption in the kidneys and more water remaining in the filtrate. This increased water in the filtrate can increase the pressure in the glomerular capillaries, resulting in an increase in glomerular filtration rate (GFR).
it is normal gfr level.
A Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) of 55 mL/min indicates that kidney function is moderately impaired. Normal GFR values typically range from 90 to 120 mL/min, so a GFR of 55 suggests a stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD), specifically stage 3. This level of GFR may require monitoring and potential management to prevent further decline in kidney function and associated health issues. It’s important to discuss this result with a healthcare provider for appropriate evaluation and treatment.
GFR means glomerular filtration rate. It is a way to measure the kidney's function. In adults the GFR should be somewhere between 100 and 130, while in children it should be about 110. Since the GFR is a measure of the kidney's function it is used to help classify kidney disease. GFR > 90 with no signs of kidney damage like proteinurea = normal GFR > 90 with signs of kidney damage = Category 1 GFR 60-90 = Category 2 (mild) GFR 30-60 = Category 3 (moderate) GFR 30-15 = Category 4 (severe) GFR < 15 = Category 5 (kidney failure)
A high glomerular filtration rate (GFR) can be caused by factors such as dehydration, intense physical activity, a diet high in protein, or certain medications. It can also be a result of hyperfiltration in conditions like early diabetes or hypertension. A persistently high GFR may indicate underlying kidney disease and should be further evaluated by a healthcare professional.
My husband is 72 - gfr is 64
Your estimated GFR is 113 because your kidney function is good.
Yes, this is true. The total urine production each day is typically greater than the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) because the kidneys filter the blood multiple times throughout the day to produce urine, which can result in a higher cumulative output than the GFR at any given moment.
If systemic blood pressure (BP) increases, the kidneys respond by activating autoregulatory mechanisms to maintain the glomerular filtration rate (GFR). This is primarily achieved through the constriction of afferent arterioles, which reduces blood flow into the glomeruli, thus preventing an excessive increase in GFR. Additionally, the juxtaglomerular apparatus may release less renin, further helping to regulate renal blood flow and maintain stable GFR despite fluctuations in systemic BP.
