Corticomedullary differentiation, the distinct separation between the cortex and medulla in the kidneys, can be lost due to various pathological conditions, such as chronic kidney disease or acute tubular injury. This loss is often characterized by a blending of the cortical and medullary regions, which can lead to impaired kidney function. Factors like ischemia, toxic injury, or inflammation may disrupt the normal architecture, resulting in a decreased ability to filter blood and regulate electrolyte balance. Ultimately, this loss signifies significant underlying kidney damage and dysfunction.

How can you grade renal parenchymal disease on ultrasound?
Renal parenchymal disease basically appear echogenic. There are three grades of renal parenchymal disease. Grade 1: the Kidney parenchyma is isoechoic to the liver, but there is still cortiomedullary differentiation. Grade 2: the kidney parenchyma is hyperechoic to the liver with preservation of corticomedullary differentiation. Grade 3: kidney appears hyperechoic. No corticomedullary differentiation!
What causes loss of corticomedullary differentiation in kidney?
Loss of corticomedullary differentiation in the kidney is primarily caused by conditions that lead to renal ischemia, acute tubular injury, or chronic kidney disease. This can occur in scenarios such as acute kidney injury, chronic interstitial nephritis, or glomerular diseases, where the normal distinction between the renal cortex and medulla becomes blurred due to cellular damage, fibrosis, or inflammation. Imaging studies, particularly ultrasound or CT, may reveal this loss, indicating underlying pathology affecting renal function.
What is it called when a stem cell becomes specific type of cell?
differentiation.
What is mean preserved cortico-medullary differentiation?
Corticomedullary differentiation on medical diagnostic imaging is the visualisation of the difference of intensity (MRI) , echogenity (Ultrasound) or attenuation (CT) between the cortical and medullary tissue in an organ. For Example; The kidney has a cortex (the peripheral tissue) and a medulla (central to the cortex). On an ultrasound scan, the cortex should look whiter (more echogenic) than the medulla and thus, you should be able see and differentiate between these two different tissues judging by their color.. Loss of corticomedullary differentiation is what its called when both cortex and medulla are seen as the same shade of grey and one can not see any change of color (any change in shade of grey tones as most diagnostic images are black and white) on the border of cortex and medulla.

What are the common differentiation problems faced by students in mathematics?
Common differentiation problems faced by students in mathematics include difficulty understanding the concept of derivatives, confusion with the rules and techniques of differentiation, challenges in applying differentiation to solve problems, and struggles with recognizing when and how to use different differentiation methods.
What is pluropotency?
A pluripotent cell is one that has not lost, through either of the processes called Determination or Differentiation, any of its abilities to develop into any type of cell. See stem cells.
What is the difference between Integration and differentiation?
integration is reverse of differentiation and vice versa
