stop confusing nephritic and nephrotic syndromes on timed blocks?

Whenever I hit renal pathology in mixed timed blocks, I still pause too long between membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis, IgA nephropathy, and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. Once the vignette gives both hematuria and proteinuria in the middle range, my pattern recognition falls apart.

How are people organizing glomerular diseases so you can separate complement levels, light microscopy, and immunofluorescence in under sixty seconds without memorizing a giant table passively?

For nephrotic causes, pairing each histology with its classic systemic association helped me: minimal change with Hodgkin lymphoma, membranous with solid tumors or phospholipase A2 receptor antibodies, and FSGS with HIV or sickle cell.
