13. Glomerular Diseases

Glomerular disease is generally thought of as nephritic vs. nephrotic. In this episode, we will try to understand the difference between the two, acknowledging that these can occur on a spectrum. We’ll talk about specific diseases that fall under each category and work through several case vignettes, highlighting key features that you should know for each. It’s tough to get a hang of these diseases, but this episode is definitely a step in the right direction!

Love the podcast! Amazing. Just wanted to let you know that in this podcast you call Alport syndrome x-linked recessive but it is x-linked dominant.

  Thanks for the feedback! Yes, Alport Syndrome can be inherited in different ways. In majority of cases it is X-linked recessive (this is why it is more common in males), but there are cases where it it can follow an autosomal recessive or autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. https://rarediseases.info.nih.gov/diseases/5785/alport-syndrome.
