Pain in Renal Disease

Journal of Pain & Palliative Care Pharmacotherapy, 2014
Pain is the presenting symptom in 20 to 30% of patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and occurs in 50 to 60% of patients at some stage of the disease process, but its frequency increases with age and size of the cysts. Back pain is caused by kidney enlargement as well as rupture, hemorrhage, or infection of cysts.

The Progression of Renal Disease

New England Journal of Medicine, 1988
The diversity of its causes, the unpredictability of its clinical course, and our expanding knowledge of the conditions that may exacerbate or retard its progression suggest that glomerular sclerosis cannot be attributed to a single aberration in glomerular physiology.

Genetic renal disease

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 1998
Many genetic renal disease now have specific genetic definitions, allowing prognostication. Several glomerular basement membrane defects include Alport's syndrome and benign familial hematurias. Genetic tubular or interstitial structural defects likely include familial juvenile nephronophthisis, as well as the polycystic diseases.

Disease of the Renal Vessels

2014
With each kidney typically serviced by a single artery and vein, one may expect that any interruption in the vascular supply must be treated to preserve organ function. However, the kidneys can continue to operate even in the presence of high-grade arterial stenosis, with many studies demonstrating a much more complex disease dynamic than the ...

Homocysteine and Renal Disease

Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2000
Hyperhomocysteinemia refers to an elevated circulating level of the sulfur-containing amino acid homocysteine and has been shown to be a risk factor for vascular disease in the general population. In patients with renal failure, hyperhomocysteinemia is a common feature.

Progression of Renal Disease and Renal Hypertrophy

Annual Review of Physiology, 1995
Growth of residual renal tissue in response to loss of other renal tissue is usually termed compensatory hypertrophy. This process occurs not only when unilateral nephrectomy is performed with the contralateral organ increasing its mass but also when undamaged nephrons within a kidney undergo enlargement as other nephron units in that same kidney are ...

Renal calculus disease

Current Opinion in Urology, 1998
We have seen an explosion in technical innovations for the management of urolithiasis. Today, the endourologist possesses an assortment of minimally invasive tools to treat renal stones. Most patients receive fast, safe and effective treatment in the outpatient setting.

Renal Disease in the Elderly

Medical Clinics of North America, 1983
With advancing age and in the absence of any disease, there is a significant alteration in kidney structure and a gradual decline in renal function. While RPF, GFR, and tubular reabsorptive capacity decrease with age, abnormal signs or symptoms cannot be detected under ordinary circumstances.
