Genitourinary Henoch-Schönlein Purpura (HSP) is a subtype of HSP that primarily affects the kidneys and the genitourinary system. It is characterized by symptoms such as blood in the urine, proteinuria, and kidney inflammation. Treatment typically involves addressing the underlying inflammation and managing symptoms to prevent long-term kidney damage.
Urology is the medical term meaning study of the genitourinary tract.

genitourinary
Genitourinary refers to the organs and structures of the urinary and reproductive systems in the body. This includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, urethra, and reproductive organs like the testes, ovaries, and uterus. The genitourinary system is responsible for filtering and excreting waste from the body, as well as reproduction.

For the kidneys: urology (or genitourinary diseases) For the gastrointestinal tract: gastroenterology
When heat energy is added to a system, it can result in an increase in temperature, phase changes (like melting or boiling), changes in pressure, expansion of the system, or changes in chemical reactions within the system.
Kidneys belong to the genitourinary system where as liver belongs to the hepatobiliary system or gastrointestinal system
The reversible effects of adding heat include changes in temperature, phase transitions (such as melting or boiling), and changes in chemical reactions. These effects can be reversed by removing the heat source or by cooling the system.
