Chronic Kidney Disease has become another powerful killer for human being,
followed by cancer and heart disease. Chronic Kidney Disease includes various
kinds such acute or chronic nephritis, nephrotic Syndrome, Renal Failure,
Uremia, and so on. And Nephrotic Syndrome, as main one, is appealing more and
more people. What is Nephrotic Syndrome, and what clinical symptoms does it
have?
Nephritic Syndrome is a joint name of kidney disease caused by many factors,
with emphasis on glomerular lesion brought about by increasing membrane
permeability of glomeruli and lower glomerular filtration rate. It is not a sole
disease. The characteristic clinical manifestations are amounts of Proteinuria,
lower albuminemia, severe edema, and hyperlipemia, namely " three highs and one
lower"
1.Amounts of proteinuria.Proteinuria and Kidney Disease
When mechanical barrier and electric charge barrier are broken, the
permeability of plasma protein increase, and amounts of plasma protein leak out
of blood. When the quantity of plasma protein is more than that of absorption
ability of renal tubules, it will produce a large number of Proteinuria. Those
factors can aggravate Proteinuria which can increase the blood perfusion and
high filtration of glomeruli, for instance, hypertension, plasma objection and
high protein intake.Stem Cell Therapy Treats Kidney Disease
2.Sereve edema.Facial Edema in Nephrotic Syndrome and Bilateral Pedal Edema with Diabetic Nephropathy
Lower albuminemia makes blood concentration lower than that of tissue fluid.
So water flows into tissue space from blood. This is the main reason of
edema.
3.Hyperlipemia
This symptom is commonly accompanied with lower albuminemia,
hypercholesterolemia or hypertriglyceridemia
4.Lower albuminemia.About Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital
a.Great lose of protein in urine.
b.Part of albumin is degraded by epithelial cells of renal tubules in primary
urine, namely about 10g/day.
c.Although the compensation of kidneys can increase the formation of protein,
it can't still be equal to the lose and degradation of protein.
d.The edema of Gastrointestinal mucosa leads to poor appetite. Less intake
and lose of protein worsens lower alnuminemia.
With these four characteristic clinical symptoms, patients can know whether
they suffer from Nephrotic Syndrome generally. If unfortunately they get, they
can receive timely treatment and avoid worsening disease. about this aspect, if
