How much do you know about the kidney’s basic working unit? 🔎

Meet the nephron, one of the structures that filters your blood every day behind the scenes.

What kidney term should we break down next?

NRx Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq:NRXP) Receives FDA Approval of Preservative-Free Ketamine Ahead of November 10 FDA Goal Date
NRx Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: NRXP) received FDA approval of its generic drug application for preservative-free ketamine ahead of the agency’s goal date.The approval preceded the November 10 target. The formulation contains no benzethonium chloride, a preservative used in existing ketamine injections. Manufactured commercial supply is on hand; NRx said it can now label the product and supply American hospitals and clinics.The product is manufactured in the United States with Nephron Pharmaceuticals in West Columbia, South Carolina. NRx aims to address the shortage of traditional glass-bottled ketamine through high-volume “blow-fill-seal” manufacturing technology. The company said ketamine injection has been in short supply since 2018 and currently appears on the FDA drug shortage list.

💊 Drug cut IgA kidney protein loss

In a trial of 485 adults with IgA kidney disease, ravulizumab cut protein leaking into urine by 46.6% at 34 weeks, against 5.6% on placebo. Early results, but real news for patients.

About 65%: how much of the filtered sodium one nephron segment takes back (OpenStax Anatomy and Physiology 2e, Table 25.5). Aldosterone gets the attention, but which segment does most of the work? MCAT-style question. AI-narrated. Education only.

Introduction & Real-World Relevance Every single second, trillions of living cells across the human body break down amino acids, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates to sustain life and repair tissues. While carbon dioxide produced during cellular respiration is expelled effortlessly by the lungs, the breakdown of proteins generates toxic nitrogenous waste products—predominantly…

While this patient was not obese nor had premature delivery at birth, the biopsy showed around 70% global sclerosis and a second diagnosis of hyperfiltration injury was rendered, likely due to acquired reduced nephron mass secondary to glomerular/nephron loss from the underlying Fabry disease.

Your patient isn't diuresing on IV Lasix and urine Na⁺ isn’t at goal.

Sharad Patel, MD (@msmsharad) from ResusX:2026:
Do you double the dose or add a second agent targeting a different nephron segment? What's your move at the bedside? Comment and discuss.
