Can someone explain to me glomerular oncotic, and intertitial and tubular hydrostatic pressures?
I have no idea what these various pressures mean exactly. I know that formula and what pushes out and what pushes fluid in. But when would I see
Decreased glomerular oncotic, and intertitial and tubular hydrostatic pressures? and Increased glomerular oncotic pressure, and intertitial and tubular hydrostatic pressures? Thank you !

Oncotic pressure drags water in.
So capillary oncotic pressure pulls water into the capillaries. Hydrostatic pressure pushes water out. So capillary hydrostatic pressure will push water out of the capillaries.
