Chronic kidney disease is a topic that most people pay attention to. Why is it said that most people? This is because the pathology of this disease is very high. It is understood that the prevalence of this disease in our country is about 10%. Think about how many people there are, or even 100 million people. This is still a rough estimate. Moreover, diabetes and high blood pressure are the main culprits that cause kidney disease. Of course, there are many other diseases that cause kidney disease. So whether it is hypertension, diabetes, or kidney disease, how should we pay attention? To put it bluntly, it is the adjustment of diet and the adjustment of life. So here, what exactly is chronic kidney disease? Let's take a look briefly.
The chronic kidney disease we often say is that the kidney is damaged and cannot perform its proper function, or it can only perform part of its function. It also includes pathology, blood, urine, imaging abnormalities ≥ 3 months Of patients. According to the "Clinical Practice Guidelines for Chronic Kidney Disease and Dialysis", we know that kidney damage to a certain degree, that is to say, there may be or no glomerular filtration rate decline, usually manifested as abnormal renal pathology, an indicator of kidney damage Including any of the two items: abnormal blood or urine composition or abnormal imaging examination. In other words, whether you have evidence of kidney damage, as long as you meet one of the two we just mentioned, it is chronic kidney disease.
Know about chronic kidney disease, so what do we know about chronic kidney disease? We simply concluded that chronic nephritis, tubular interstitial disease, renal vascular disease, and hereditary kidney disease are common types. And what do we often see? The first is primary glomerulonephritis. After it is hypertension, renal arteriosclerosis, diabetic nephropathy, chronic interstitial nephritis and so on.
Looking at these diseases, do you feel dizzy? In fact, many diseases will have symptoms of varying degrees as the disease progresses. Of course, there are also many patients who do not have any obvious symptoms in the early stage. This depends on the specific situation. So, under normal circumstances, what are the early symptoms? Common symptoms are quite obvious, such as lack of strength for no reason, feeling very tired, and varying degrees of edema in the eyelids, lower limbs, etc., decreased or increased urine output, increased foam, etc., these are actually It's still easy to observe, so be careful. What
just said is the early stage, so as its condition is discovered, more symptoms will be manifested one by one, becoming more and more obvious. Such as nausea and vomiting, back pain, increased nocturia, body edema, peculiar smell in urine, itchy skin, numbness of hands and feet, lethargy and other obvious symptoms. Symptoms of
are actually the most obvious in the middle stage. In the late stage, it usually develops into uremia, and the previous symptoms will aggravate, causing various organs to fail to work, that is, a state of exhaustion, which eventually leads to an increase in mortality. .
So what should we do when these symptoms appear? This has always been the direction of research. The general treatment ideas and methods are: (1) Strengthen the research of single disease optimization plan;
(2) Strengthen the development and research of new drugs with real curative effect;
(3) Strengthen the treatment of kidney by Chinese medicine Study on the mechanism of disease;
(4) Strengthen the mechanism and prevention and treatment of toxic Chinese medicine kidney damage;
(5) Use the methods of systems biology to explore the study of the nature of the kidney in Chinese medicine;
(6) organize the compilation of "Chronic Kidney Disease "Guidelines for Prevention and Treatment of Integrated Western Medicine";
(7) Vigorously publicize, attach importance to general surveys, and early prevention.
We know that most patients with chronic kidney disease have no symptoms or have mild symptoms in the early stage. Therefore, early laboratory tests are very important. If
wants to achieve early inspection, the key is to insist on regular annual screening. Even if there are no symptoms, it is generally necessary to screen urine routine and renal function once a year. If you have some symptoms, you should go to the hospital for a more comprehensive examination in time or as soon as possible. Once
has obvious symptoms, it will come on fiercely, most of which have advanced to advanced renal failure, even uremia, so how to detect small changes in the kidney early is very important. Kidney failure is the final result of the gradual deterioration of various chronic kidney diseases. If chronic nephritis is not cured for a long time, it is indeed possible to developInto chronic renal failure, uremia.
But it does not mean that all kidney diseases will develop into chronic renal failure. Most kidney diseases as long as simple urine, blood or ultrasound examinations can be performed on a regular basis, and timely correct treatment under the guidance of professional doctors, generally will not It becomes kidney failure, uremia. Even if you have suffered from chronic kidney disease, as long as the early active treatment, good blood pressure control, blood sugar control, and blood lipid reduction can effectively control the development of chronic kidney disease, as long as the chronic kidney disease is controlled, it is equivalent to "cure".
We often say that chronic kidney disease is a "silent killer", it often has no obvious symptoms in the early stage, so we must find and treat it early.
Health is the foundation of the body, pay attention to the kidney doctor class, pay attention to health!
