Which Disease can Lead to Kidney Failure

◆ Primary Glomerulonephritis
Primary Glomerulonephritis is an immune-mediated disease in most cases, and the exact cause of it is not clear at present. The clinical manifestations vary a lot, including proteinuria, hematuria, high blood pressure, edema, etc. During the process, kidney function fails gradually. With the insufficiency of kidneys function, the disease condition changes frequently and the curative effects are usually not so satisfying. If it develops, chronic Kidney Failure will occur.
◆ Kidney Diseases of the tubules and interstitium
It is a series of pathological changes which are involved in renal tubules and interstitium. The main function of tubules is reabsorption, secretion and excretion, so the the volume of urine will change obviously in clinic. A great majority of renal insufficiency is aroused by this kind of disease. If there is no timely control, it will develop kidney failure with higher possibility.
Hypertensive Nephropathy
The long-lasting high blood pressure will lead to the sclerosis of kidneys, and accelerate the occurrence of atherosclerosis, causing the damages on kidneys. The harmful influence of Hypertension should be paid much attention to in case of the occurrence of Kidney Failure. Also, there should be effective and suitable medication to control the blood pressure and then avoid the decrease of kidney function.
Diabetic Nephropathy
Diabetic Nephropathy is the main complication of Diabetes Mellitus. Kidneys are damaged to some degree under the influence of high blood glucose. If the blood glucose of the patients with Diabetic Nephropathy cannot be controlled well, the disease will deteriorate into kidney failure. When the total intake of protein and fat is limited, and there is little influence of other complications such as Hypertension, the occurrence of Kidney Failure can be postponed effectively.
