The kidneys regulate the amount of urine and maintain the balance of water in the body. Kidney is an important endocrine organ, it can produce a variety of hormones and biological active substances, to the human body blood pressure, water and electrolyte balance, erythropoiesis, calcium and phosphorus metabolism plays an important role in many aspects. The kidneys produce a kind of erythropoietin. Erythropoietin promotes bone marrow hematopoiesis and produces red blood cells. So when the kidney is sick, the erythropoietin produces less, and Anemia occurs. In addition, the kidneys can turn the active vitamin D precursor into active vitamin D, which regulates the metabolism of calcium and phosphorus in the body. The waste from the metabolism, the kidneys are required to discharge the waste o...

Urinary invisibility is the presence of red blood cells in the urine. Under the microscope, there are two or more red blood cells in the field of vision, which is blood urine. The more the number of red blood cells in the urine, the more serious the damage to the organ.

It's usually caused by sodium retention. Third. Gastrointestinal symptoms, nausea, vomiting, etc But this is usually a symptom of late renal disease, because the kidneys have been damaged more than half of the time, and toxins in the blood are elevated. And that leads to this series of reactions. Forth. Hypertension Kidneys have the effect of regulating blood pressure. When the kidneys are damaged, the kidneys will raise local blood pressure and increase blood perfusion. It can lead to higher overall blood pressure. The more severe the kidney damage, the harder it is to control blood pressure. Fifth. Changes in urine First of all, when the k...

What are the characteristics of the indicators of nephropathy?

1 serum creatinine The amount of creatinine can be used to measure whether the glomeruli is functioning well. The function of the glomerular filtration can represent the function of kidney. Blood creatinine is used to determine   renal function , and blood creatinine elevated renal function. 2 estimate glomerular filtration rate To be able to respond objectively to renal function without other factors. 3   urea nitrogen In the patients with   dialysis   of   Uremia , the increase of blood urea nitrogen is related to the severity of the disease. 4 cystatin C Cystatin C is relatively stable, and the kidneys are the only excretory organs that are not reabsorbed by the renal tubules after the glomerular filtration. 5 the kidney ECT Also known as renal function imaging, renal function is measured with radionuclide (technetium). The excretion of this substance in the kidneys is measured to calculate the glomerular filtration rate. In concl...
