Hypertension and nephropathy

Hypertension and kidney are both close and complex. Hypertension can cause kidney damage, and many kidney disease and prone to high blood pressure. Hypertension and kidney disease mutual influence, each other cause and effect, as well as the formation of a vicious circle.

What is the relationship between high blood pressure and kidney disease

Hypertension is a cardiovascular disease, and the kidneys are also composed of small blood vessels, long-term high blood pressure also damage the kidneys of small arteries, hypertension caused by renal artery spasm, resulting in renal ischemia and hypoxia, and then damage the kidney Small ball endothelial cells. Endothelial cells once damaged will attract blood circulation in the infiltration of inflammatory cells, and the release of pathogenic inflammatory mediators, renal glomerular local pathological changes: glomerular basement membrane changes, filtration hole increases, the charge barrier Damage, increased renal permeability, this time there will be proteinuria.

Basics of Hypertensive Kidney Disease

Most hypertensive patients can develop varying degrees of kidney changes, but the occurrence of hypertensive nephropathy is a slow process of progress. General primary hypertension in the development of sustained and stable, 5 to 10 years can occur mild to moderate renal arteriosclerosis, and then damage the kidney unit, occur in long-term high blood pressure is not well controlled. In mild to moderate primary hypertension, early course of the disease for a long period of time, due to the regulation of the kidneys themselves, does not appear changes in renal structure and function, only when the kidneys of their own regulatory dysfunction, hypertensive state Under the high sodium load and acute capacity expansion and other pathological conditions, after a certain period of time, only the gradual emergence of renal tubular injury and functional damage.

High Blood Pressure and Hypertensive Nephropathy

The relationship between hypertension and the kidneys is very complex and close, both in different situations, each other cause and effect. Long-term high blood pressure will inevitably involve the kidneys, and kidney structure and function changes, it will cause high blood pressure. In both cases, elevated blood pressure and kidney damage can intensify with each other to form a vicious cycle. It is because of hypertension and kidney disease are closely related to the proposed high blood pressure patients should go to the hospital regularly to check the urine and renal function. In daily life should also pay attention to whether they have edema, nocturia increased, urine bubbles and other symptoms. Once found that the above symptoms may have kidney damage, need to go to the hospital in time.

Kidney diseases whatever the causes can gradually affect patients' daily life.
