The diseases listed under Nephritic and Nephrotic don't match up. (ie. Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis is nephritic in FA, nephrotic in RR)

I hate the kidney.

Which one is correct?

Members don't see this ad.
 
They're both correct --- MPGN can have features of nephritic or nephrotic syndrome.
 
The kidney is confusing.

Nephrology is confusing - its so academic.

They can explain everything so well, discuss the pathophysiology for hours, talk about minute differences in microscopic and EM appearance of each nephritic/nephrotic syndrome.

In the end? Steroids, next patient...
