A 5-year-old child is admitted to the hospital with acute glomerulonephritis. In taking the child’s history, what does the nurse recognize as the probable cause?

A. Recovery from German measles 2 months ago: German measles (rubella) is not associated with glomerulonephritis. B. Dysuria: While dysuria is a symptom of urinary tract infections, it does not directly cause glomerulonephritis. C. A sore throat 2 weeks ago: Acute glomerulonephritis often follows a streptococcal infection, such as strep throat, typically within 1-3 weeks. D. A history of allergy: Allergies are not a causative factor for glomerulonephritis.
