Why is there poly urea in chronic liver failure?

Hello everyone,

 

Ok there are less nephrons, and they get more GFR. So the answer says more osmotically active particles are filtered leading to polyurea. My question is how can this happen, if there is more GFR shouldn't more water also be filtered with high amount of osmotically active particles, so as long as water is present it should reduce the effect of these substances. Thanks :)
