treatment, the urine examination result showed that the hypertension is caused
by Chronic Nephritis. Hypertension will occur in Chronic Nephritis patients
sooner or later. And the increase of blood pressure can be either persistent or
intermittent, featuring increasing diastolic pressure. The degree of high blood
pressure may be different between different people, with the mild one

b) The urinary abnormality. It is almost the necessary sign for Chronic
Nephritis patients, including the change of urine volume and the abnormality. As
the edema becomes sever, Patients with edema have less and less urine while
patients without edema have normal urine volume. When the renal damage is sever,
the renal function of urine concentration and dilution is out of order and the
patients will show increase in the nocturnal urine and decrease in urine
specific gravity. Almost each Chronic Nephritis patient’s urine under microscope
shows protein, which arranges from (±)to(++++). In the urinary sediment are
erythrocytes, leukocyte, cast granules and hyaline casts, which are different in
number. When patients have acute attack of Chronic Nephritis, there is apparent
hematuresis, even macroscopic hematuresis. Besides, Chronic Nephritis patients
may have the clinical symptoms such as dizziness(Is It Normal to Experience Dizziness and Double Vision After Dialysis), insomnia, Fatigue (Fatigue and Kidney Disease), and

c) Edema. Most patients will have edema different in degree in the course of
Chronic Nephritis development. How sever the edema is depends on different
patient. The patients with mild Chronic Nephritis just have edema on the face,
around eyes after getting up in the morning or have edema on the lower
extremities and ankles, even the worse one with edema all over the body. The
Chronic Nephritis patients without edema through all course of the disease often
neglect the disease.
