approach to hematuria
Macroscopic hematuria is most likely caused by malignancy, followed by renal stones.

Nephrotic vs Nephritic syndrome
باختصار:
الـ nephritic تصير بالعادة بسبب تلف الـ GBM¹ وعلامتها المميزة هي الـ hematuria.

الـ Nephrotic تصير بالعادة بسبب إصابة الـ podocytes وعلامتها المميزة هي الـ proteinuria.
ثنينهن يعتبرن علامات أو متلازمات تابعات لأمراض معينة، يعني مو تشخيص بحد ذاته. وثنينهن يعتبرن طرفين متعاكسين ضمن طيف من الأعراض (مثلًا أكو أمراض تكون بالنص، بحيث تظهر بيها أعراض هي مزيج بين الـ nephrotic والـ nephritic). وأكو بعد تفاصيل هواي، بس هي هاي الأشياء الأساسية.


¹GBM: Glomerular Basement Membrane
Minimal change disease is the most commom cause of nephrotic syndrome in children (it can occur at all age groups. But in adults, it is associated with poorer response to treatment).

And membranous nephropathy is the most common cause of nephrotic syndrome in adults (but can occur in children as well).
Glomerulonephritis

While glomerulonephritis literally means ‘inflammation of glomeruli’, the term is often used more broadly to describe all types of glomerular disease, even though some of these (e.g. minimal change nephropathy) are not associated with inflammation.
Most types of glomerulonephritis are immunologically mediated and several respond to immunosuppressive drugs. And they are generally classified in terms of the histopathological appearances (e.g. segmental, minimal change,...etc).

That being said, many non-specialists find the terminology used in describing glomerulonephritis to be confusing.
Patient with sickle cell trait may come only with haematuria, due to the infarction of renal papillae.
