Chinese Herb Medicine Treats Glomerulonephritis

　　Chinese Herb Medicine Treats Glomerulonephritis
　　After thousands of years’ development, Chinese medicine and theory has become skilled in treating many kinds of diseases without any side effects as well as treating them from root. The same goes for the treatment of renal glomerulonephritis, the therapy and mechanism of which is as follows:
　　1) Some herbs in this prescription can clear up immune complex and inflammatory factors so that these factors won't further damage the kidneys. As we know, glomerulonephritis is characterized by deposition of immune complex in glomeruali. And such deposition causes damage to the kidneys and also stimulates the body to release inflammatory factors. Too much inflammatory factors further damage the kidneys. Therefore, clearing up such factors is quite important for treating glomerulonephritis.
　　2) Other herbs help to repair the damaged renal functional cells by providing necessary micronutrients for self-repair of renal functional cells and stimulating DNA Replication of renal functional cells. Most of the patients have continuous protein in urine, which indicates that charge barrier and size barrier of epithelial cells and endothelial cells are damaged. And both types of cells are main renal functional cells. As the renal functional cells are repaired, charge barrier and size barrier recover. Protein won't leak out again. Hence, after treated by Chinese herb medicines, protein in urine can be cured.
　　3) These herbs also have effect on improving blood circulation. They realize it by dilating blood vessels, anti-inflammation, anticoagulation and degrading extra cellular matrixes (formed by sclerosed renal functional cells). In this case, ischemia and anoxia of the kidneys can be improved, contributing to stopping the progression of kidney disease and protecting kidney function. This is because ischemia and anoxia are the major factors that aggravate progression of glomerulonephritis. With good circulation, blood pressure becomes stable and edema is relieved. About controlling blood pressure, Chinese herb medicine is different from western anti-hypertensive medicines. Chinese herb medicine has long-term effect, so after treatment, most of patients don’t have to take anti-hypertensive medicines any more.

　　Every coin has two sides and the same goes for traditional Chinese medicine. It will take a long time to collect, smash and boiled, which may delay the treating time. Considering these, Chinese Medicine is created in Kidney Disease Hospital, which is really a creation. It is convenient, applied through osmosis omitting smashing and boiling, thus saving time to treat glomerulonephritis indeed.

Healthy Diet Principles for Stage 3 CKD

　　Healthy Diet Principles for Stage 3 CKD
　　Including a variety of grains, fruits and vegetables, but whole grains and some fruits and vegetables may be limited if blood tests show phosphorus or potassium levels are above normal.
　　A diet that is low in saturated fat and cholesterol and moderate in total fats, especially if cholesterol is high or if you have diabetes or heart disease
　　Limiting intake of refined and processed foods high in sodium and prepare foods with less salt or high sodium ingredients
　　Aiming for a healthy weight by consuming adequate calories and including physical activity each day
　　Keeping protein intake within the DRI level recommended for healthy people with attention to high quality protein.
　　Consuming the DRI for the water soluble vitamin B complex and C.
　　Vitamin D and iron may be tailored to individual requirements
　　Limiting phosphorus if blood levels of phosphorus or PTH are above normal
　　Limiting calcium if blood levels are above normal

　　Potassium is usually not restricted unless blood levels are above normal

How to Treat Creatinine 330, CKD Stage 3

　　How to Treat Creatinine 330, CKD Stage 3
　　How to treat creatinine 330, CKD stage 3? GFR can show the blood flow in the kidney, which is more accurate than serum creatinine for creatinine is influenced by many factors such as diet and exercise. The normal range of GFR is 80 to 120 ml/min. In the third stage, GFR falls to 30~59 ml/min. In addition, in many countries, kidney disease patients begin to take dialysis when the serum creatinine is as high as 445 umol/L. For diabetic kidney disease, patients should start it as soon as creatinine is 300. All of us don’t like to take dialysis, so serum creatinine 330 patients are in a critical stage. The treatment in this time plays an important role. Or else, patients will be at risk. On the basis that most kidney diseases are caused by immune disorder, we created immunotherapy in Kidney Disease Hospital, which consist of immune diagnosis, immune clearance, immune blocking, immune tolerance, immune regulation and immune protection. Next, we mainly explain the main points.
　　In immune clearance, we have plasma change, immune adsorption, CRRT, hemoperfusion and so on, we will choose one based on the treatment plan, to help your wife clear those immune complex from the bloodstream. 330 serum creatinine will be lowered for stage 3 kidney disease patients.
　　In immune blocking stage, we will use effective immunosuppressive drug to block the inflammation on the kidneys, so the kidneys will be protected from further damage, the immunosuppressive drugs such as Yunke, CyA, matrine injection, we will choose effective immunosuppressive drugs in proper amount based on the treatment plan.
　　In immune regulation stage, we will use Chinese Medicine, herb bath or foot massage to degrade those immune complex from the kidneys to protect the kidneys.
　　In immune protection stage, we will choose proper cells, such as umbilical cord blood cells, NK cells, CIK, DC-CIK cells to differentiate into new kidney cells to repair the injured kidneys, so kidney function will be improved, NK cells and Treg cells can improve immune ability, we will choose proper cells based on patient's illness condition. In stage 3 of kidney disease, there must be damaged cells in the kidney. immune protection can help repair these cells and rebuild renal function.

　　So after such systematic therapy, patients' root cause will be controlled, immune ability will be improved, injured kidneys will be repaired, so kidney function will definitely improved, not only Creatinine level will decline.

GFR and Kidney Function Test

　　GFR and Kidney Function Test
　　Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is the volume of fluid filtered from the renal glomerular capillaries into the Bowman's capsule per unit time. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) can be calculated by measuring any chemical that has a steady level in the blood, and is freely filtered but neither reabsorbed nor secreted by the kidneys. The rate therefore measured is the quantity of the substance in the urine that originated from a calculable volume of blood. In a word, GFR is used to examine the kidney function.
　　Calculated or measured GFR or creatinine clearance has a normal range of 90-120 ml/min. For convenience, this is referred to as 100% of kidney function. For example, if GFR is 15ml/min, that is said to represent approximately 15% of kidney function. GFR (or creatinine clearance) varies with age. There is generally a slow decrease of about 1% of GFR/year from the mid thirties. So at age 70 years, GFR on average is often only 60-70% of the normal.

　　When there is damage in the kidney, GRF will decrease, the level of which can also divide chronic kidney disease into 5 stages. In stage 1, GFR is more than 90 ml/min. In stage 2, GFR is between 60 to 89 ml/min. In stage 3 of chronic kidney disease, GFR is 30 to 59 ml/min. In stage 4 of chronic kidney disease, GFR is 15 to 29 ml/min. In stage 5, GFR is less than 15 ml/min.

How to Treat Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3 with Immunotherapy

　　How to Treat Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3 with Immunotherapy
　　Stage 3 chronic kidney disease patients are in a critical stage. Although there is half or more than half function is damaged, it can be reversible. Or else, patients will do dialysis or kidney transplant. Most kidney diseases are caused by immune disorder, on the basis of which, we researched our immunotherapy, which is a systematic treating including diagnosis, stem cells and Chinese Medicine, etc. The detailed applications are as follows:
　　1) Do some specific Medical tests or diagnosis
　　In our hospital, we suggest the patient do some tests like CYs-C， α1 and β2 microglobulin, Micro-albumin, urine enzyme, NAG, GGT etc. These testes can help the patients to know which parts of kidneys get damaged, how much glomeruli and renal tubules get damaged, and what kinds of waste products are accumulated in the patient's body. It is unique for some other hospitals do not have indeed.
　　2) Clear the toxin substances and waste products from human body.
　　Chinese Medicine can help the patient to expand the blood vessels, take more blood in the vessels, bring the nutrition substance which the body need, and take way the immune substance in the kidneys. What's more, we have a serious of immune clearance technology, such as the Blood Exchange, hemoperfusion, immunoadsorbent technics, dialysis, blood purification etc. to help the patient to discharge the small, middle, big waste products and toxin substances.
　　3) Repair the damaged kidneys with Micro-Chinese Medicine
　　Chinese Medicine is not an operation and will not cause any pain. Chinese Medicine is superfinely shattered like powder, they are putted into small bags and heated for 45 minutes, and then we put these small bags on the two sides of kidneys according to the Acupuncture Points. What’s more, this process can be achieved with the help of osmosis device, so Chinese Medicine can get into renal lesion effectively. The effective substance can repair the damaged renal cells, and clear the immune complex in the human body. After adopting Chinese Medicine for 3-5 days, the urine color can be changed obviously. (That is immune complex discharge into urine). Chinese Medicine has the function of anti-coagulation, anti-inflammatory,prevent thrombus,degradation.

　　With the help of immunotherapy, damaged cells can be repaired and necrotic cells can be differentiated, which can help reveres for stage 3 chronic kidney disease patients.

Diagnosis for IgA Nephropathy

　　Diagnosis for IgA Nephropathy
　　Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of treatment. Generally, we should diagnosis diagnose whether there is or how much protein in urine or red blood cells in urine, patients should take urine test. We should also do renal biopsy, which can tell us how much IgA is in renal mesengial area. All of these can supply evidence for the schedule of the doctors in clinic. The detailed information goes as follows:
　　1. kidney function test
　　Blood tests and 24-hour urine collection are needed to assess your kidney function to diagnose IgA nephropathy. You are also suggested to have an iothalamate clearance test, which uses a special contrast agent to track how well your kidneys are filtering wastes. Kidney Disease Hospital is one of the few centers to specialize in iothalamate clearance testing in the dedicated renal pathology laboratory.
　　2. renal biopsy
　　A renal biopsy is a procedure in which a sample of kidney (also called renal) tissue is obtained. Microscopic examination of the tissue can provide information needed to diagnose, monitor or treat a renal disorder. Renal biopsy is recommended for selected patients with kidney disease. It is most commonly performed when less invasive measures are insufficient. It is the most accurate test to confirm the diagnosis of IgA nephropathy. It can also help determine the severity of the disease.
　　3. Kidney imaging. Ultrasound or X-rays also may be used to evaluate the shape or size of your kidneys. A cystoscopy exam can rule out other causes of bleeding in the urinary tract.

　　All of these examinations can be carried out in Kidney Disease Hospital to diagnose IgA nephropathy.

Treat Renal Parenchymal Disease with Immunotherapy

　　Treat Renal Parenchymal Disease with Immunotherapy
　　Parenchymal part is the main part of a kidney, in which, there are numerous renal units such as glomeruli and renal tubules. If damaged, it may lead to great harm. Many kidney diseases take place in renal parenchymal area such as lupus nephritis, diabetic nephropathy, purpura nephritis, etc. In addition, most kidney diseases are caused by immune disorder or damaged immune system. Based on this, in Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital, we researched out immunotherapy, which is a systematic treatment combining Chinese medicine and western medicine and can be divided into 6 main steps:
　　Firstly, Immune diagnosis
　　In this step, we should find out the harmful immune complex which causes damage to kidneys, which part of our kidney is damaged, is glomerulis or renal tubules? Our hospital has brought the most advanced equipment to do the special tests, like lymphocyte subsets which can judge patient's immune function; toxins in urine, which can tell us what kinds of toxins are accumulated in patient's body. These toxins may contain uric acid, creatinine, b2-microglobulin, CYS-C, retinol binding protein, homocysteine, immune complex. Only when we have a proper diagnosis on where the immune complex is, how much it is, the exact type of it, can we take specific measures to treat.
　　Secondly, Immune clearance
　　After finding out the harmful substances in our body, we should clear them. During this step, our hospital can clear the harmful substances (containing micromolecule substances, middle molecular substances, and macromolecules) with the help of many kinds of blood purification equipment, such as hemodialysis, filtration, perfusion, immune absorption, plasma exchange and so on. Then the further damage to our kidneys and other organs can be stopped. After these, a relatively clean inner environment is built up. Please pay attention that in this step, only the immune complex in the blood can be cleared away out of the body and those depositing onto the kidney can not clear away.
　　The third one is immune blocking. There is immune complex depositing onto kidney as we mentioned above, which leads to immune response and due to immune system is damaged, the immune reaction can not stopped. In this case, we use medicine which can stop the excessive immune response, thus stopping the inflammation response at a rapid speed for the time being. However, our ultimate aim is to clear away them out.
　　The fourth one is immune tolerance. After immune inhibition, the immune response can be stopped. And the damage to the kidney can be blocked. However, the immune complex still deposit onto the kidney, which leads to a new series of immune response. We only make room and time for the final clearance. In this step, our body allows the immune complex to be in the kidney for the time being but not forever.
　　The fifth one is immune regulation. In this step, Chinese medicines are applied, which can improve the blood circulation, including micro-blood circulation and dissolve the blood stasis. In this case, the immune complex can be discharged out, and the immune system can be repaired. Note that blood purification such as dialysis can not achieve this.
　　The six one is immune protection, in which stage, we also use Chinese medicine or herbs which can nourish Qi and blood to rebuild the intrinsic immune system. In addition, biochemical cell therapy is also used in clinic such as the transplant of stem cell, which can also help achieve this effect. After this, renal parenchymal diseases can be treated from root and will be hard to relapse for the intrinsic immune system is rebuilt and our body can clear away the immune complex, the main pathological materials.
