摘要

the kidney excretes acid in the form of titratable acidity and ammonium as well as in the form of free protons. The latter causes urinary acidification together with the reabsorption of filtered bicarbonate. Inborn or acquired forms of renal tubular acidosis (RTA) reduce the capacity of the kidneys to form ammonium and excrete acids (9). According to the functional defect and predominant site of renal damage, different subtypes of RTA have been classified: type I or distal RTA (dRTA), describing defects localized in the connecting tubule and collecting duct; type II or proximal RTA, caused by defects in the proximal tubule, and type IV or hyperkalemic RTA, summarizing different causes of relative aldosterone insufficiency or resistance in the distal nephron. Some authors use also the term type III RTA or combined RTA, referring to a mixed proximal and distal nephron pathology. Clinically, the distinction of these RTA subtypes depends on the detection of normal anion gap metabolic acidosis for all subtypes combined with bicarbonaturia or other signs of proximal tubule dysfunction (Fanconi syndrome) for type II proximal RTA or inappropriately alkaline urine in the face of metabolic acidosis for type I dRTA and the presence of hyperkalemia for type IV RTA. However, this distinction may not always be as obvious as it seems as compensatory mechanisms may mask overt metabolic acidosis or only partial defects may be present. Thus, specific provocation tests challenging the kidneys' capability to reab-sorb bicarbonate or to produce maximally acidic urine are routinely used to unmask such defects. To date, two types of urinary acidification tests are in clinical use: the ammonium chloride loading test and the furosemide-fludrocortisone (F+F) test. The ammonium chloride loading test introduced by O. Wrong in the 1950s provides a metabolic acid load where hepatic metabolism of ammonium releases protons to be excreted by the kidney (21). A failure of the kidney to acidify urine below pH 5.3 (or, in some centers, 5.5) is diagnostic for type I dRTA. This test, although very reliable and serving as the "gold standard," is very unpleasant for patients as ammonium chloride is poorly palatable and may cause nausea and vomiting. Alternatively, the F+F test may be used, combining a mineralocorticoid such as fludrocortisone with a loop diuretic such as furosemide. This test was first introduced as a single application of furosemide by D. Batlle (1) aiming to provide pathophysiological insights and distinction into different causes of type I dRTA.

Batlle(1)作为呋塞米的单一应用,旨在提供病理生理学洞察和区别于I型DRTA的不同原因。
