Measurements in a nephron reveal a glomerular hydrostatic

Last updated: 8/4/2022

Measurements in a nephron reveal a glomerular hydrostatic pressure of 69 mm Hg and a fluid pressure in Bowman's capsule of 15 mm Hg. Assuming an oncotic pressure of 30 mmHg and essentially no plasma protein are filtered, what is the glomerular filtration pressure in this case? 114 mmHg 54 mmHg 39 mmHg 24 mmHg
