There are these little things that UW is confusing me with. UW mentioned in one explanation that hyaline "acellular" arteriolosclerosis is a result of mild hypertension (the common essential hypertension), but in another explanation it says it's a result of diabetic microangiopathy, while only atheromatous lesions (lipid-filled plaques) are due to hypertension and causes claudication.

Another thing, UW says that focal segmental nephropathy is the most common cause of nephrotic syndrome in adults, while in FA, membranous nephropathy is the most common culprit.

So.. what really is the correct info?

hyaline "acellular" arteriolosclerosis....commom causes are... essential HT and DM..both....

for malignant HT....there occurs Hyperplastic arteriolosclerosis...smooth muc. cell hyperplasia with GBM duplication n onion skin appearance...

atheromatous lesions (lipid-filled plaques) are due to hypertension and causes claudication...thats true...there is nothing to confuse about....

Diffuse membranous glomerulopathy is Most common cause of nephrotic syndrome in adults....its given in goljan...
