    Net filtration pressure

    Explanation:

    The net filtration pressure is the outward pressure minus the inward pressure. Figure of a glomerular capsule with glomerular hydrostatic pressure, blood colloid osmotic pressure, and capsular hydrostatic pressure.

    The sum of all of the influences, both osmotic and hydrostatic, results in a net filtration pressure (NFP) of about 10 mm Hg. A proper concentration of solutes in the blood is important in maintaining osmotic pressure both in the glomerulus and systemically.
