Abstract:
Viral interstitial pneumonia is rarely associated with rhabdomyolysis-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) and evolving systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with no lupus flare. Here, we report an adult male with human rhinovirus-associated viral pneumonia and rhabdomyolysis-related AKI requiring dialysis. He was detected to be anti-nuclear, anti-Smith, and anti-U1 ribonucleoprotein antibodies positive. His kidney biopsy revealed normal glomeruli, with immunofluorescence showing a full-house pattern. Renal function and lung function gradually improved to normal without any immunosuppressants.

Glomerulus: Structure and Function
The glomerulus is a tiny, intricate network of capillaries located at the beginning of the nephron. It's enveloped by the Bowman's capsule and receives its blood supply from an afferent arteriole, which divides into numerous...
Dialysis
Acute kidney injury develops suddenly and can be caused by pre-renal causes (e.g., hypovolemia, shock), intrinsic renal causes (e.g., acute tubular necrosis), or post-renal causes (e.g., urinary obstruction). In contrast, chronic renal failure progresses gradually over time and is often...
