Yes because sodium lowers extracellular fluid volume and that initiates aldosterone secretion (hyperaldosteronis) which then leads to sodium reabsorption of Na and the K+ gets out so we have hypokalemia.
There is inc hco3- loss . Which causes decrease activity of basolateral na+ and cl- activity. Causing decreased sodium and hence hyperaldosteronism . So eventually there is hypokalemia my friend. Aldosterone causes Inc na reabsorption and potassium and H+ secretion . Potassium and ammonia are inversely related so high potassium due to hypoaldosteron nwill cause low ammoniogenesis.
Shouldn't NaHCO3 loss cause hyperaldosteronism instead of hypoaldosteronism to result in hypokalemia in type II RTA?
yes i have the same question

Best video on RTA
Watching this just before an exam. Thanks a lot. God bless
This was so dam good! Explained first aid where it makes sense now! Please continue to make videos.

I have sjogrens and in five years my gfr dropped 20 points I wonder if I have this. Nephrologist says she's not concerned at this point
Besttttt
awesome, thank you
I think the correct words at 1st column x 3rd line of the chart are Serum Potassium (K+) instead of Serum pH again, right?
Thnx
