In 1992, there were 980 deaths in a Midwestern city with a population
of 1,000,000. At the beginning of that year, 900 cases of AIDS existed in

-glomerulopathies
-acute interstitial necrosis (tumors or toxins)
-vascular damage
-malignant HTN, vasculitis
-coagulation defects
-renal artery/vein occlusion
-bilateral acute pyelonephritis
karyolysis - --CORRECT ANSWER----nuclear dissolution and lysis of
chromatin from the action of hydrolytic enzymes. Result of the action
of hydrolytic lysosomal enzymes on DNA
karyorrhexias - --CORRECT ANSWER----a degenerative cellular process
involving fragmentation of the nucleus and the breakup of the
chromatin into unstructured granules
kidneys and anemia - --CORRECT ANSWER----the kidneys can sense
hypoxia/anemia, and incrase endogenous erythropoietin production,
which acts in the bone marrow to produce new RBCs
if the kidney is failing, this does not work - anemia - kidneys cannot
compensate by producing erythropoietin and cannot make new RBCs
