How to Treat the Acute Nephritis?

The acute nephritis, know as acute glomerulonephritis. It is more common in children and more men than women. This disease often caused by catching cold, because the pathogenic bacteria in acute nephritis and cold are the same, both is hemolytic streptococcus infection.

The symptoms of acute nephritis
The acute nephritis develops quickly, and the latent period is usually around 10 days, and often accompany by hematuria, proteinuria, edema and hypertension. Therefore, if the cold patients appear abnormal urine, edema or hypertension, he need to pay attention to the kidney disease, for there are more chance that he has affected with acute nephritis.
The harm of acute nephritis
Most acute nephritis prognosis is good, but there are few poor prognosis, such as the patients with heavy proteinuria, elderly patients, persistent hypertension or renal damage patients.
Some of the acute nephritis patients due to the lack of timely and effective treatment, turn for chronic nephritis, even the chronic renal failure.
The treatment of acute nephritis
First, pay attention to the rest, this kind of patients easily occur fatigue, weakness and other symptoms, so they need a rest.
Second, anti infection, among the medicines, the penicillin is the best. If the flat body inflammation repeatedly, you need to consider removing it.
Third, symptomatic treatments, such as diuretic reduce swellings, lower blood pressure. If in acute renal failure, then the dialysis needed.
In general, the acute nephritis do not need special treatment, have a good rest is ok.
The change of acute nephritis
Only a minority of acute nephritis can turn for chronic nephritis, acute renal failure and even lead to chronic renal failure. For the renal failure patients, the usual treatment is do regular dialysis and the application of hormone. But all these treatments are only take temporary effective, cannot affect a permanent cure, once the treatment is stopped, the disease will be repeated.

Now the most effective treatment for renal failure is the Mirco-Chinese Medicine treatment and blood purification. Through the plasma exchange, immune adsorption and other blood purification treatment, to clean the immune complexes and avoid further kidney damage. At the same time, using the Mirco-Chinese treatment to expand the blood capillaried, remove the blood stasis, alleviate ischemic kidney cells, improve microcirculation, and increase the cell viability and the n repair the damaged kidney function.

Does Renal Failure Patient Need To Drink More Water?

Many renal failure patients think water could help get rid of toxins, water really can help getting rid of toxins,but too much water is not good for health. Generally, when the urine output is less than 500ml, the excretion of wastes will be affected and the possibility of presenting metabolic disorders will be increased, such as, hyperkalemia and metabolic acidosis.

However, this does not mean the more water, the better the efficacy. Due to a drop in glomerular filtration function and tubular reabsorption, too much water will increase the burden of kidneys to a large extent. If left uncontrolled for a long time, complications including severe swelling, high blood pressure, cardiac hypertrophy, pulmonary edema, heart failure, etc may occur. In serious condition, patients’ life will be threatened.

On the other hand, as the renal function of concentration is damaged, the urine volume of individuals may exceed 3000ml. If the intake of water is not sufficient, dehydration may appear, what’s more, kidney function will be affected.

After reading this words, renal failure patients should know they can’t drink too much water, proper intake of water is good for illness.

How Should Patients with ESRF be Responsible for Themselves?

To be responsible for themselves, ESRF patients should not only actively cooperate with doctors on drugs and dialysis treatment in hospital, but also have effective self-management in action. Then what should they do to be responsible for themselves?

Do not use antique cooking utensils, because they are coated with pigment made from cadmium.

Have low protein diet. End-stage renal failure patients should have low protein diet. Healthy people need protein of 1-1.5 grams per kilogram of body weight, and patients with ESRF should take in less than 0.5 grams per kilogram of body weight so as to reduce the generation and retention of nitrogen mass metabolites in the body.

Avoid chemicals which could damage kidneys.

Have enough rest. ESRF patients should have enough rest and good nourishment. Remember that they should not engage in high intensity activities.

Limit intake of food high in cadmium. Mussels, scallops, oysters, vegetables grown in sludge, animal livers, food made from kidneys, flounders and other foods are rich in cadmium, and patients with ESRF should have less intake of them.

Quit smoking.

Once patient are found to have polycystic kidney disease, they should inform their parents, children and siblings to have check in hospital so as to have timely treatment.

If patients with renal nephritis are difficult to recover from influenza, they should be careful that whether their renal function is damaged or not.

Above are information about daily attentions for ESRF patients. They should have active treatment and do a good job related to nursing in daily life.

What does Increase of Creatinine Mean?

When it comes to increase of creatinine, healthy people are not familiar with it. But patients with renal diseases know it very well, because there are creatinine indexes in tests and sometimes there are increase or decrease of creatinine levels, which show that there is something wrong with their kidneys and they should take some treatments. Then what does increase of creatinine mean?

Serum creatinine concentration depends on the glomerular filtration function. But serum creatinine is not consistent with creatinine clearance rate, creatinine clearance rate being more sensitive than serum creatinine. When the glomerular filtration rate drops by more than 50%, serum creatinine begins to increase. Therefore, when the serum creatinine is obviously higher than normal, it shows that your renal function is damaged severely.

Due to the large renal reserve capacity, at early stage of renal diseases, serum creatinine concentration is not elevated generally. When the glomerular filtration rate drops by at least 50%, serum creatinine concentration would be found increased, so it has poor sensitivity. Once serum creatinine increases continuously, it shows that the prognosis is not good.


Increase of creatinine usually appears in acute or chronic glomerulonephritis, polycystic kidney diseases and other renal diseases. When the glomerular filtration function decreases caused by above diseases, serum creatinine concentration still shows normal at early or mild damage of glomerular filtration function, which is because that storage capacity and compensatory ability of kidneys are still very strong. Only when the glomerular filtration rate drops to 1/3 of normal, would blood creatinine values rise significantly.

Why Would Patients with ESRF Have Nosebleed?

Patients with end-stage renal failure would have more symptoms, and the common symptoms are nausea and poor appetite. But there is an uncommon or less unknown symptom: nosebleed. Why do patients with ESRF have nosebleed often?

Nausea, vomiting and poor appetite are common symptoms of patients at the beginning of ESRF. But when their illness becomes advanced, their whole body system would be affected, and they would suffer from mental disorder and severe coma which may kill them. Then what are the reasons of nosebleeding? In fact, nosebleed in patients with end-stage renal failure is led by nasal mucous membrane rupture caused by blood pressure or high creatinine. In order to avoid the appearance of similar symptoms or severer symptoms, patients with renal failure should have early treatment so as not to lead to the progression of early end-stage renal failure.

Now treatment of western medicine is mainly drug treatment, the main function of which is to reduce serum creatinine and toxins in blood by increasing the discharge of intestinal toxins. It plays the role of discharging toxins, but it just takes temporary solution in the end which would lower the level of endotoxin in the blood temporarily. Dialysis is a good example. It could not restore the damaged kidney function fundamentally, and it is a helpless choice for patients with end-stage renal failure. Long-term dialysis would lead to a gradual loss of kidney function. And kidney transplantation is also a tough choice and treatment.

Here, in Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital, we have professional experts and good treatment of all kinds of kidney diseases, which is a good choice for patients with renal diseases. Our treatment is traditional Chinese medicine treatment which would restore your kidney function gradually. No matter what disease you have, we would make you have a rewarding trip.

Why my weight increased after the dialysis?

Doctor, I began to do dialysis last December, and the weight increased from 78kg to 83kg. is this the right symptoms? What should I do?

Normally, there are two reasons can increase the weight for the dialysis patients.

First, during the dialysis, the urine output will decrease, at this time if the diet is not change, then the water will increase in the body and edema will appear. Sometimes the edema is not obviously, so you need to pay more attention.

Second, after the dialysis, the digestive tract will be improved, and will absorb more diet. In this condition, it is real weight increase, not the edema.

Normally, the second cause have little possible, so once the weight not stable, you need to ask your doctor, to know how much salt water you out each dialysis.

Any questions feel free to ask the online doctor or email to Katehelen491@yahoo.com.

The Traditional Chinese Medicine for Kidney Disease

The kidney disease patients complain that the hormone have a great side effect and easily has a relapse, so how should we treat this disease?So, how traditional Chinese medicines treat this disease? First of all, we need to know about the philosophy of this treatment.

The concept of Traditional Chinese medicine treatment
In traditional Chinese medicine, it is said that when the body lack of innate endowment, or acquired deficiency, or subjected to external toxin invasion, will cause the body gas poor, stagnation and blood stasis. When the Qi is not smooth, the blood flow will slow down. Once the blood flow slow down, the blood cells will easily deposit, this is also called the blood stasis. We can image that, once the blood stasis formed, it will easily produce the blood stasis toxin and when the blood stasis toxin formed, gas will be more sluggish, then forming a vicious spiral.
Qi stagnation and blood stasis, stasis poison, and poison plug qi stagnation form the Chinese concept of kidney disease process.
Therefore, Chinese medicine treatment focus on regulating Qi, remove blood stasis and toxin three process to treat the kidney disease.
The advantage of Chinese Medicine
Compared with western medicine, what is the advantage of Chinese medicine?
Due to the Chinese medicine have an unique efficacy on regulating Qi and removing blood stasis, so they have a good effect on promoting renal microcirculation and improving ischemic renal cell condition.
In the poison, although on this side, the Chinese medicine does not have the obvious effect as the western medicine; it still has the unique effect.
What is more importantly, the nature of the traditional Chinese medicines are mild and more thoroughly, and have no side effects, compared with the western medicine.
But, you need go to the regular hospital to receive the traditional Chinese medicine treatment.
The special herb medicines
Why our Chinese medicines are unique? Because we use some unique drugs, these drugs are not used in other hospitals, even they have never heard.
For example, as the Chinese herbal medicine, we use common edelweiss herb, potentilla discolor, euphorbia humifusa, Centella asiatica, Achyranthes, agrimony, Galium, yam, Caragana, Jin Chanhua, snow lotus, persimmon leaf and other medicinal herbs.
As the Chinese patent medicine, we use the sinomenine, pentoxifylline, total glucosides of paeony, Maren capsule and so on. These medicines are more effective than the natural herbs. This effect, not only from our hospital condensed experts’ years of clinical experience, but also from our new creative ways of administration.
The Characteristic treatment in our hospital
When we talk to the Chinese medicine treatment, most of the people tend to think the oral intake of herbs. However, the oral Chinese medicine, because of the influence of hydrochloric acid in the gastric juice, when it reaches the kidney, the effect will not be satisfied.
There are many special treatments in our hospital, like Moxibustion therapy, steaming therapy, point application therapy, circle treatment, medicate bath and other types of therapy and drug delivery, to ensure the medicines can effectively reach the kidney and ensure the treatment effect.
Summary,
The treatment of traditional Chinese medicine is a three-dimensional treatment, not a tisane can solve the problem. If you can cooperate with certain western medicine, it is very easy to play a multiplier effect.

The Modern Chinese Medicine Treatment for Renal Failure

In the developed modern medical technology, there are many treatments for renal failure. But, the traditional Chinese Medicines treatment has been deeply favored.

There are two advantages of Modern traditional Chinese Medicines in the treatment of renal failure.

Protect the residual renal function

Although the patients has entered the final stage of renal failure, but there are 5%-15% residual renal function exist, and the 5%-15% renal function is very important. They can help the patients to discharge the water and toxin, thereby greatly reducing the disease complications and the dependency of dewatering amount in the dialysis.

Some scientific experiments and clinical studies have shown that the traditional Chinese medicines treatment can have a very good treatment effective to protect the residual renal functions; the reasonable treatment can obviously relieve the loss of residual renal function and bring benefits for the long-term patients’ health.

Fully promote the excretion of toxins

There are many kinds of toxins in the renal failure patients, and the dialysis can only replace part of the body’s normal renal function. So, as long as we can promote the toxin in the patients with fully discharge, it will bring a great value to the health of the patients. Traditional Chinese medicines can promote the excretion of toxin from various ways.

Now, the researchers find that the body can actually rule out many toxins through sweat, vomiting and bowel, so by the traditional Chinese Medicines treatments, the patient can have reasonable sweating, increased fecal excretion, even emetic the toxin when necessary. All these can accelerate the toxin excretion in the patients, so as to improve the patients’ body condition and improve the comprehensive treatment efficacy.

The Modern Chinese Medicine Treatment

The modern Chinese Medicines treatment combines the mirco-Chinese medicine treatment with blood purification. Through the advanced purification equipment maximizes remove the toxin and harmful substances in the blood. By osmosis, the herbs can directly send to the kidney, and effectively repair the damaged kidney, slow down the disease development process. The medicinal bath, by increasing the amount of perspiration and comprehensively promote the excretion of the toxin in the body. In the later, through the treatment, improve the patients’ immunity and provide a good environment for the overall improvement of the disease, and reduce the chance of disease exacerbation.

Traditional Chinese medicine can greatly reducing the side effects of the dialysis on the body, and provide a chance for the patients’ rehabilitation. Our hospital can greatly reduce the patients’ dialysis frequency, slow down the worse process and greatly improve the life quality.

The treatment of end stage renal failure

The harm of end stage renal failure

The end stages renal failure refers to more than 90% of renal units are stop to working, and kidney cannot work normally, so it will result in a variety of symptoms. The most common symptom is various metabolic disorders, such as water, electrolyte, acid-base, protein, carbohydrate, fat, and vitamin and so on. And, large of glomerular filtration function failed, an amount of metabolic substances cannot be excreted normally, so there are many lesions damage on each organ in the body and many complications occur.

The normal treatment for end stage renal failure

At present, the treatments of end stage renal failure are regular dialysis and renal transplantation.

But, we need to know that the dialysis cannot cure the disease, it is only for the life insurance. Not only can not improve the renal unit necrosis condition, also due to the lack use of kidney, will accelerate the atrophy.

The kidney transplantation operation success rate is very low and expensive. Even the operation is successful; the survival period is about 10 years and need to take anti rejection drugs for the life.

That is why the disease be called terminally ill.

The Concept of treatment of end stage renal failure

The studies show that, the most important of the treatment is to expand the blood vessels, improve the renal microcirculation and alleviate the renal anemia. At the same time, activate the “suspended animation” renal units; improve the kidney vitality and recovery the renal function.

How to achieve this?

The Morco-Chinese Medicine treatment is better ways, through the points in kidney, the micronization drugs can be sent to the kidney; avoid the waste of gastrointestinal absorption of oral drug. At the same time, the unique formula can ensure the treatment effect.

The misunderstanding of end stage renal failure

1. The end stage renal failure can only rely on dialysis and waiting for a kidney transplant.

The dialysis and kidney transplant cannot solve the renal function problem and cannot improve the patient’s life quality; either can effectively extend the patient’s life.

The correct way is to take active treatment with traditional Chinese medicine, use the micro herbs to recovery the kidney function. The clinical experience show that use the micro herbs can effectively improve the kidney function, get rid of dialysis and higher the life quality.

2. The end stage kidney failure can be cure

The necrotic renal unit cannot be repaired; the doctor who said that he can cure the end stage renal failure is irresponsible.

3. The end stage renal failure can only wait for transplantation.

Although the end stage renal failure cannot cured completely, as the necrotic kidney units can not be repaired, but that does not mean that the end stage renal failure is incurable.

The kidney stop working does not mean that it complete necrosis, part of the kidney units are “suspended animation” caused by the excessive accumulation of immune complexes in the kidney, this part of kidney units can be activated by the treatment.

If there are more than 10% kidney can work, the renal function can guarantee the normal daily activities, as long as attention to the daily life, the patient can live a normal and longer life.

Four Habits Injury the Renal Health

With the improvement of the living and working conditions, there have been some unreasonable changes of the people’s way of life. Such as the improper diet, metal stress and worse environmental factors.

The Improper Diet

Eating too much seafood, drinking much beer and eating plenty of high protein diet will produce too much uric acid and urea nitrogen metabolic waste; these will increase the kidney excretion burden.

In addition, if eating salty, it will increase the blood pressure, and when the renal blood cannot maintain the normal blood flow, this will induce the nephropathy.

If do not drink for a long time, the urine volume will decrease, so the toxin and waste degree in the urine will increase and this will easy to lead to the kidney stones and kidney seeper. So, the people need to take light diet and drink plenty of water.

Cold

Many people in the four seasons like to show the small waist and do not pay attention to the waist warm, also drinking and eating iced things in the summer can cold the kidney. The cold environment will affect the renal blood circulation and the bad blood circulation easily make the blood vessels expansion, once expansion, some of the vessels will rupture and cause the blood in the urine.

Also, the blood-supply in the glomerular will appear a problem, the glomerular will atrophy or calcification, the protein cannot be metabolism, that is the albuminuria and hematuria glomerulonephritis that we often mentioned.

The long-term stay up all night

In Chinese Medicine perspective, stay up late can damage the nervous, so the people who have long-term stay up all night, high work pressure, love to drink strong tea and coffee will be more easily to have kidney disease. So, we must pay attention to the rest, if there are some symptoms such as eye and face swollen, low back pain, physical fatigue and long-term anemia, you need to take early medical examination.

Often Hold Back

If urine in the bladder stays a long time will growth the bacteria, and through the ureter, these bacteria will retrograde into the kidney, causing urinary tract infections and pyeloneohritis. This kind of infection once repeatedly, can cause the chronic kidney disease and not easy to cure.

Can High BUN Patients Eat Meat?

BUN is an indicator of kidney function. In the early stage of kidney function impairment, BUN keeps in the normal range. When GFR is lower than 50 %, BUN level increases quickly. How to control the BUN? That is really a question. Should I cut back on meat protein if my BUN is high? In the following, you may find the answer.

Urea nitrogen is the end product of protein metabolism, so cutting back on meat protein is helpful in controlling BUN. But protein is necessary for body building. In order to satisfy the need of body, you should supplement moderate high quality protein, such as lean meat, fish and egg white. To reduce the protein metabolism, you should ensure calory intake. There are three sources to supply calory for your body, namely protein, carbohydrate and fat. Increasing the intake of carbohydrate can reduce protein metabolism. It is better for you to provide 30 Kca/Kg calory per day. Fresh vegetables and fruits are high in vitamins, which can help you boost immune system and fight against kidney disease, so you had better add them into your diet.
Though diet can help you control BUN to certain extent, it can not solve the problem from the root. Only when your kidney function improves, BUN level comes down. Chinese medicine therapies such as Medicated Bath, Circle Therapy and Enema Therapy can help your body to discharge toxins and improve blood circulation. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can inhibit kidney inflammation, block blood clotting, dilate blood vessels, degrade extracellular matrix and provide various nutrients. These functions can help kidney self-healing.

Medicine for the Constipation with Hypertension

Doctor, I have hypertension for half a year, these days I feel constipation, which medicine can I take?

Actually, some of the hypertension drugs can cause the constipation, you can ask the doctor to change the hypertension drugs.

Also, the diet treatment is very important in this condition. You can through the reasonable collocation diet to adjust the blood pressure. When the blood pressure is stable, you can gradually reduce the hypertension drugs and then the problem will resolved.

For the constipation, avoid the piquancy food, and eat more vegetables which contain much more fiber. Also, you can take some Aloe Jera, as this medicine you need to consult your local doctors.

The headache in dialysis patients

The headache is a very common symptom in dialysis patients and it always plagued the patients. So, what cause the headache in the patients and how to deal with it? 

There are three reasons cause the headache in the dialysis, respectively the dialysis imbalance syndrome, severe hypertension and cerebral vascular accident. In addition, the patients with long-term drinking coffee history will be easily to have the headache, because during the dialysis the coffee will make the blood concentration decreased.
 

In face of these reasons, the first thing we need to do is to make clear about the pathogency and be sure the causes then take intervene for the cause. If you find the causes are not the cerebral vascular accident and other intracranial lesion, then you can use the p-acetamidophenol to get a relief.
 

Although most of the dialysis patients have the headache, but in fact, this phenomenon can be avoided, the key is to take appropriate measures based on the incentive. Such as, the patients can slow down the blood flow in the beginning of the hemodialysis, use bicarbonate dialysis, also including the application of low sodium dialysis and taking regular dialysis. No matter which kind of methods you taking, it need to focus on the root cause.

Constipation and High Blood Pressure

When the vascular wall cannot bear the pressure, the blood vessels will broke and occur the cerebral hemorrhage. In this condition, when the patient go to toilet, he will suddenly fainted, unconscious, mouth askew, bad language, hemiplegia; or no fainted, limb numbness and other stroke symptoms.

If the high blood pressure patients have constipation, then the blood pressure will be much worse. Because, when the patients hard to defecate, it will result in the faster heart beat, cardiac contraction, cardiac output increase then the blood pressure will increase suddenly.

So, what should the patients do with constipation?

Dietary fiber, this can increase the volume of waste and promote the intestinal peristalsis. The patients need to eat more coarse food grain, oatmeal, kelp and celery.
Every morning, drink a glass of warm water, keep a good life habit, and defecate timely.
Drink more Yogurt, because the lactic acid in the yogurt has a certain stimulative effect on the intestinal mucosa, produce a large amount of short chain fatty acids to promote the intestinal peristalsis. In this way, the yogurt can effectively clean the gastrointestinal and remove the body waste.
Honey has good sterilization and detoxification effect, it can help to out the accumulated waste and improve the whole body metabolic function.

What are the best diets after the kidney transplant?

I just do the kidney transplant, so how to nurse the kidney in the daily life?
After your kidney transplant, you may need to adjust your diet to keep your kidney healthy and functioning well. You'll have fewer dietary restrictions than you had while receiving dialysis therapy before your transplant, but you still may need to make some diet changes.
Your dietitian also will provide you with several healthy-food options and ideas to use in your eating plan. Your dietitian's recommendations may include:
· Eating at least five servings of fruits and vegetables each day
· Avoiding grapefruit and grapefruit juice due to its effect on a group of immunosuppression medications (calcineurin inhibitors)
· Having enough fiber in your daily diet
· Drinking low-fat milk or eating other low-fat dairy products, which is important to maintain optimal calcium and phosphorus levels
· Eating lean meats, poultry and fish
· Maintaining a low-salt and low-fat diet
· Following food safety guidelines
· Staying hydrated by drinking adequate water and other fluids each day
In addition, discuss with your transplant doctor if you're taking any over-the-counter medications, vitamins or supplements, and before starting any new prescription medicines.

Renal failure patients had better not to eat honey-dew melon

Honey-dew melons are so delicious that many people like them. But patients with renal failure could eat them?

Honey-dew melons are delicious and rich in nutrients. They contain many potassium ions, there being about 250 mg of potassium in every 100 g of melon meat. For patients with renal failure, their glomeruli filtrating efficiency declines and renal tubular function reduces, which lead to declining function of discharging potassium. Intake of high potassium foods may lead to cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, patients with renal failure are not suggested to eat honey-dew melons. Though potassium is indispensable in body, high potassium in body would have a big effect on heart and even threaten lives.

Patients with renal failure would suffer from endocrine disorders and metabolic disorders. Due to abnormality of draining and regulating function of kidney, patients would suffer from oliguria or anuria clinically, which would lead to some metabolic disorders in body, especially disorder of potassium metabolism. Oliguria or anuria would inhibit timely excretion of potassium, which would lead to hyperkalemia.

Therefore, patients with renal failure should pay more attention to daily diet, and make certain what they should not eat.

Why are Kidney Diseases Difficult to be Cured?

Why normal people do not get kidney diseases?
For the normal people,there is a system which purifies the blood and maintains a clean internal environment,and this system is known as innate immune system which is a resistance capability born with people. The immune system can remove all kinds of toxins that invade the body. Generally speaking,there are two approaches in getting rid of toxins:one is kidneys and the other is liver,among which the coordination between innate immune system and kidneys are especially important. Just because of perfect coordination between innate immune system and renal function,though in the same living environment,normal people will not get kidney diseases.

Why do some people get kidney diseases and what are causes of diseases ?
As a kidney patient,you can think about the reasons why you get kidney diseases.The reasons are nothing more than overwork,less activities,improper diet habits,mood disorders,environmental pollutions and so on. These external pathogenic factors damage and destroy the innate immune system. Once this immune system is damaged,the clotting mechanism,hematopoietic system,and compensatory system are also damaged,people’s resistance to diseases are accordingly reduced. If resistance to diseases entered into a long-term decline,the innate immune system cannot get rid of metabolic products and toxins out of vascular wall and endovascular,these toxins will gradually pile up in the blood and lead to the declining ability of various elements intake,as time passes,it will take great strengthen for the kidneys to purify the blood. The damaged innate immune system and constantly accumulating toxins in the blood exceed the bearing capacity of kidneys,then the kidneys will fall ill.And if this conditions continue,renal failure or end stage renal failure is clearly predestined to happen.

Why are kidney diseases difficult to be cured?
Review the treatment aims and methods,whether it is western treatment in general hospitals,or Chinese medicine treatment,or treatment in other specialized hospitals, they centered on treatments like those in my hospital. Let’s look at treatment development in my hospital. In 2006,we focused on treatment of blockage of renal fibrosis; in 2008,we moved from renal fibrosis to innate cells of kidneys; until 2011,the treatment of innate cells of kidneys updated to innate immune system then to six steps of immune treatment. Make a comprehensive survey of treatment in past years,we did see some curative effects and made achievements,but why kidney diseases can not be cured?
Sum up experiences from past years,we find that our treatment is mainly focused on treating kidneys and innate immune system,while in order to cure kidney disease,we should also pay attention to the blood. The blood runs through the whole body so if it is polluted,as might be imagined,the pollutants and toxins will be taken around the body,if things go on like this,a series of pathological changes occur. Therefore the reasons why kidney diseases cannot be cured is because of the polluted blood.

Why do Kidney Failure Patient's Mouth Has Peculiar Smell?

In the clinical, chronic kidney function failure is known as the chronic renal failure, it is the result of deterioration of a variety of chronic kidney disease. Chronic renal failure may develop into uremia. Failure patient’s mouth often has peculiar smell, why?

About peculiar smell, different people have different opinions. Some people think it smells like ammonia, piss, and other people think it smells like chemical fertilizer, stink.

Chronic renal failure is an irreversible process, but it is not an incurable disease. With the development of science (such as dialysis and renal transplantation), many patients will live much longer.
The common etiologies of kidney failure are glomerulonephritis, interstitial nephritis, high blood pressure, diabetes and obstructed kidney disease. In addition, polycystic kidney disease, hereditary kidney disease and sickle cell disease are more common.

If patient’s condition is improved, the urine smell in the mouth is small. Because patient’s kidney function is damaged, the toxin inside body like urea nitrogen can’t discharge, accumulate in the body. The urea is broken into ammonia by urease of bacteria in intestinal tract, and this situation would stimulate the gastrointestinal mucosa, so the mouth would emit a strange smell, commonly known as “urine smell”. http://www.crf-cure.com/FAQ/44.html

In addition to regular treatment, patients should pay attention to the prevention and maintenance.

Is Renal Intoxication the Cause of Kidney Failure

Kidney failure is a common and frequently-occurring disease which severely threats patients’health. With the increase incidence of kidney failure, more and more people pay attention to the pathogeny of kidney failure. Then is renal intoxication the cause of kidney failure?
Experts indicated that there are two common causes of kidney failure:
Renal intoxication
Renal toxic substances, such as drugs: sulfanilamide, carbon tetrachloride, mercurial, bismuth, dichlorphenamide; antibiotics: polymyxin, vancomycin, kanamycin, gentamicin, cephalosporin I, cephalosporin II, neomycin, amphotericin B, diodone, methoxyflurane; biotoxin: snake venom, bee venom, cantharidin could cause acute tubular necrosis under certain conditions.
Renal ischemia  http://www.crf-cure.com/FAQ/51.html

Serious renal ischemia, such as severe trauma, extensive burns, major surgery, massive blood loss, obstetric hemorrhage, serious infection, septicemia, dehydration and electrolyte balance disorders, especially accompanying shock are all easy to cause acute tubular necrosis.
In addition, hemoglobin discharged by intravascular hemolysis(such as black water fever, favism, oxidation of arsenic poisoning) and myohemoglobin of flesh wound(crush injury, muscle inflammation) would damage renal tubules and cause acute tubular necrosis when they are excreted through kidneys.
Hope you good health!

Why Kidney Failure Could Lead to Anemia?

In life, kidney failure patients are becoming more and more. For chronic renal failure, anemia clinical phenomenon is very normal, so, why kidney failure could lead to anemia?

The most common anemia is caused by erythropoietin reducing. Erythropoietin mainly reduced by glomerular juxtaglomerular cells and medullary stroma cells. Kidney failure patients’ kidney erythropoietin production parts damaged lower hemoglobin affinity for oxygen and unit for oxygen utilization increase hemoglobin, renal ischemia is less serious at this time. The main produces of erythropoietin stimulating reduced, resulting in significantly reduced the generation of erythropoietin. Blood accumulation of some toxic materials has direct inhibition on bone marrow;, and this situation would lead to hematopoietic dysfunction.

In addition, increasing in the number of red blood cell damage is also one of the causes of anemia. This is due to high blood polyamine leads to red blood cell life-span is shortened. In uremia period, metabolic disorders of red cells and erythrocyte fragility increases, finally this situation causes the autolysis of red blood cell.

Red blood cell loss increased and chronic stomach digestive tract occult bleeding could aggravate chronic kidney failure patient’s conditions. Other diseases like high blood pressure may affect the hematopoietic function, may also affect the body’s absorption of nutrition, finally this situation would cause malnutrition then lead to renal failure.

Hyperuricemia may lead to end stage of kidney failure

Hyperuricemia may lead to urate nephropathy, in early stage of which there are mid-to-moderate proteinuria and reduced kidney urine concentration function.

Strictly control intake of alcohol beverages because they would make kidney eliminate less uric acid. Take in more alkaline foods which could help to dissolve and discharge urate. Have low-purine diet and eat less animal organs, seafood and wine. Obese people should take in less calories. Limit intake of protein and avoid spicy and stimulating foods, such as chili, peppers, garlic, mustard, etc.

Use hydration, basification and drugs in case of radiotherapy and chemotherapy to prevent acute uric acid nephropathy and acute end stage of kidney failure. Use drugs with caution which inhibit excretion of uric acid, and compound anti-hypertensive drugs may have this kind of side effect. So when using them, patients should strictly monitor changes of kidney function and serum uric acid.

How to Improve the Kidney Function?

One of the best ways to improve renal function is to maintain a healthy diet, as suggested by a physician or licensed nutritionist. Patients should notice their daily lifestyle.

Increase the amount of water you consume unless you are on dialysis. Trade other drinks, such as soda, for water. Also refrain from drinking more than one small alcoholic beverage a day if you are a woman and two small alcoholic beverages daily if you are a man. Determine your best daily intake for fluid with your doctor. Limit your fluid intake instead of increasing it if you are on dialysis based on your doctor’s recommendation.

Limit the amount of sodium you consume. When your kidney health is poor, extra sodium and fluid will build up in your body. Substitute spices and herbs for table salt. Swap salty snacks like pretzels and potato chips for unsalted popcorn. Choose fresh meats instead of cured meats. Choose prepackaged foods that are low in sodium. Check food labels on processed, canned and frozen foods. This strategy is important whether or not you are on dialysis. Sodium also raises risk for high blood pressure which can lead to kidney disease.

Reduce the amount of fatty and high-calorie food you consume. For example, choose lean meat instead of fatty cuts. Cut back on the amount of oil, margarine, butter, shortening and salad dressings you use. Pick low-fat dairy products. High-caloric, fatty foods raise your risk for high blood pressure and obesity, which in turn are risk factors for worsening your kidney disease. Choose mono- and polyunsaturated fats most often.

Increase the amount of fruits and vegetables you consume. Also eat whole grain foods like whole-wheat pasta and bread instead of products like white bread that are made of refined grains. Such foods boost your general health and help you maintain a healthy weight, which in turn helps your kidneys health.

Consult your doctor to determine whether you need a low-protein diet or a high-protein diet. If you have not started dialysis, your health care provider may recommend eating only 1 g of protein per 2.2 pounds of body weight daily. If you are on dialysis, consume 8 to 10 oz. of protein daily, or the amount recommended by your health care provider, according to MedlinePlus.
