The pathophysiology of distal renal tubular acidosis

open access: yesNature Reviews Nephrology, 2023
The kidneys have a central role in the control of acid-base homeostasis owing to bicarbonate reabsorption and production of ammonia and ammonium in the proximal tubule and active acid secretion along the collecting duct. Impaired acid excretion by the collecting duct system causes distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA), which is characterized by the ...

Hyperammonaemia with distal renal tubular acidosis [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Disease in Childhood, 1997
The case is reported of an infant with hyperammonaemia secondary to severe distal renal tubular acidosis. A clinical association between increased concentrations of ammonia in serum and renal tubular acidosis has not previously been described. In response to acidosis the infant's kidneys presumably increased ammonia synthesis but did not excrete ...

Clinical profile of distal renal tubular acidosis

open access: yesSaudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2011
To determine the clinical profile and progression of renal dysfunction in distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA), we retrospectively studied 96 consecutive cases of dRTA diagnosed at our center.

Inherited Distal Renal Tubular Acidosis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2002
Renal acid-base balance may become deranged in a number of ways, some of which are the consequence of inherited disorders. Two main groups of distal renal acidopathies result either from a direct inability to secrete acid in the distal nephron (giving rise to type 1 renal tubular acidosis [RTA ...

Pathogenesis of distal renal tubular acidosis

open access: yesKidney International, 1981
Distal renal tubular acidosis (RTA) is a syndrome characterized by hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis and an inappropriately high urine pH relative to the degree of acidosis. The clinical presentation is frequently complicated by nephrocalcinosis, hypercalciuria, and nephrolithiasis.

Medullary nephrocalcinosis, distal renal tubular acidosis and polycythaemia in a patient with nephrotic syndrome

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2012
Background Medullary nephrocalcinosis and distal renal tubular acidosis are closely associated and each can lead to the other. These clinical entities are rare in patients with nephrotic syndrome and polycythaemia is an unusual finding in such patients ...

Distal Renal Tubular Acidosis Presenting as Recurrent Paralytic Crises A Case Report

open access: yesMedicine Science, 2015
Renal tubular acidosis (RTA) is a syndrome resulting from tubular dysfunction leading to deranged acid-base balance. One of the subtypes, distal RTA manifests as renal parenchymal stone disease with nephrocalcinosis, evidence of vitamin D deficiency and ...

A child with distal (type 1) renal tubular acidosis presenting with progressive gross motor developmental regression and acute paralysis

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2017
Background Distal (Type 1) renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) is characterized by inability to secrete hydrogen irons from the distal tubule. The aetiology of dRTA is diverse and can be either inherited or acquired.
