17/ I'm very curious how others (e.g., @kidney_boy @Nephro_Sparks) think through this. It's hard to find articles directly addressing this exact question...

There is also quite good data on whether someone metabolizes quickly or slowly after NTx. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

4) Ileal conduit. Not that common, but I had 2 consults for them so 👉When urine ⬆️ in NH4Cl empties into a section of the ileum, NH4 is reabsorbed through the Na-H antiporter of the ileum. Bile acid malabsorption may also cause diarrhea. 👉In sigmoid diversion, Cl is absorbed in exchange for HCO3.

So in summary 🔎when considering Hz-glomerulonephritis look for multiple autoantibodies, high ANCA titers, vasculitis and lupus overlap 📆timing occurs after 3-5 years of Hz use, higher doses = higher risk 🧬genetics may increase risk 🏥IS may help, but about 1/3 stay on dialysis
