Blood pressure in the renal glomerulus is lower than in most parts of the body in order to conserve body water. What causes wate
Liono4ka [1.6K]

The higher blood pressure and increased blood volume will enter the afferent arteriole and the glomerulus, increasing GFR. On the other hand, people who are dehydrated and have little blood volume will have a lower GFR.

<h3>What is blood pressure in kidney ?</h3>

Renal hypertension, also known as renovascular hypertension, is high blood pressure brought on by the narrowing of your kidney-supplying arteries. It is also referred to as renal artery stenosis occasionally. Your kidneys react by producing a hormone that causes your blood pressure to increase because they are not receiving enough blood.

  • A healthy blood pressure for adults is less than 120/80 (120 over 80). For most healthy people, a blood pressure of 140/90 or more is too high. If you have diabetes or kidney disease, a blood pressure of 130/80 or more is too high

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

sensitivity = 0.5

specificity = 0.25

Predictive value = 0.5

Explanation:

Given data:

Total number of cases = 300

Total number of positively predicted = 200

Total number of actual positive = 100

NOte : 1/4th yield true positives

confusion matrix for given condition is given below

                                 predicted: yes               predicted: NO

actual: Yes               TP = 50                           FN = 50       =   100

actual: NO                FP = 150                        TN = 50

                               = 200                                  = 100                        

TP - true positive

FP - false positive

TN - true negative

FN - false negative

sensitivity  =\frac{TP}{TP +FN} = \frac{50 }{50 + 50} = 0.5

specificity = \frac{TN}{TN +FP} = \frac{50 }{50 + 150} = 0.25

Predictive value  = \frac{TP}{TP +FP} = \frac{50 }{50 + 50} = 0.5
