How the treatment of diabetic nephropathy?


Diabetic nephropathy is a common diabetes disease complications, diabetes systemic microvascular disease one of the manifestations of diabetes not treated will lead to the occurrence of diabetic nephropathy. Treatment of diabetic nephropathy in this period is very critical, and clinical features of proteinuria, progressive renal damage, hypertension, edema, and severe renal failure in the late stages, is one of the leading cause of death for diabetic patients.
The causes of diabetic nephropathy: Diabetes is caused by different etiology and pathogenesis of insulin is absolutely and relative lack of that sugar, protein and fat metabolism disorders, only chronic high blood sugar as the main clinical manifestations of systemic disease. Diabetes may be different ways to damage the kidneys These injuries can involve the kidney damage the structure, but only glomerular sclerosis and diabetes, also known as diabetic nephropathy, is one of the diabetes systemic microvascular complications. Diabetic patients with kidney damage in persistent proteinuria, the condition is irreversible is often the development of end-stage renal failure. Diabetic nephropathy has become the leading cause of death in diabetic patients.
Diabetic nephropathy stage:
stage Ⅰ: characterized by increased glomerular filtration rate and renal volume increased. These early lesions and high blood sugar levels, but reversible, can be restored after insulin treatment, but may not be able to fully return to normal.
Stage II: the urinary protein excretion rate is normal, but glomerular structural changes.
Stage III: also known as early diabetic nephropathy. Urinary albumin excretion rate of 20 - 200μg / min, the patient's blood pressure slightly elevated glomerular abandoned.
Stage Ⅳ: clinical diabetic nephropathy, or overt diabetic nephropathy. This period characterized by macroalbuminuria (greater than 3.5 g per day), edema and hypertension. Diabetic nephropathy edema, poor response to diuretics.
Stage Ⅴ: end-stage renal failure. Diabetic patients persistent urinary protein in the development of clinical diabetic nephropathy, the glomerular basement membrane is widely thickening of the glomerular capillary lumen stenosis and more glomerular abandoned, a progressive decline in kidney filtration function, leading to renal failuhre.
How to treat Diabetic nephropathy ? In recent years with the increasing incidence of diabetes, diabetic glomerulosclerosis, diabetic nephropathy is also a rapid increase. Patients can use the multi-target Chinese medicine living Battle penetration therapy, multi-target Chinese medicine living Battle infiltration therapy can effectively repair kidneys damaged kidney cells, the gradual improvement of microcirculation, repair islet cells, gradually improve the patient's blood glucose values . Due to the lack of measures to slow down the progress of diabetic nephropathy in patients with increased microalbumin excretion rate from the early to clinical diabetic nephropathy, proteinuria, edema, hypertension, renal damage has been increasing, until end-stage renal failure, uremia, and ultimately to dialysis and renal transplantation. Therefore, how to block the progression of diabetic nephropathy has become the focus and emphasis of medical research.
