kidney anatomy, glomerulonephritis, type of kidney disease, inflammation, the internal kidney structures, glomeruli, glomerulonephritis a temporary, reversible condition, get worse, progressive glomerulonephritis, destruction, the kidney glomeruli, chronic renal failure, end stage renal disease, specific problems, the body's immune system, the precise cause of some cases, glomeruli, subsequent impaired filtering causes, blood, protein to be lost, in the urine, symptoms develop gradually, disorder discovered, abnormal urinalysis, routine physical, examination, unrelated disorders, glomerulonephritis, cause hypertension, high blood pressure, discovered, a cause of high blood pressure that is difficult to control, develop after survival, the acute phase of rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis, a quarter of people, chronic glomerulonephritis , no prior history of kidney disease , disorder first appears, chronic renal failure, specific disorders, glomerulonephritis, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, fsg, goodpasture's syndrome, iga nephropathy, igm mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis, lupus nephritis, membranoproliferative gn i, membranoproliferative gn ii, post-streptococcal gn, rapidly progressive, crescentic, glomerulonephritis, rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis, rpgn, blood, in the urine, dark, rust-colored, brown urine, foamy urine, chronic renal failure symptoms that gradually developmay, unintentional weight loss, nausea, vomiting, general ill feeling, malaise, fatigue, headache, frequent hiccups, generalized itching, decreased urine output, need to urinate at night, easy bruising, bleeding, decreased alertness, drowsiness, somnolence, lethargy, confusion, delirium, coma, muscle twitching, muscle cramps, seizures, increased skin pigmentation, hyperpigmentation, skin, appear yellow, brown, decreased sensation, in the hands, feet, areas, additional symptoms that associated, excessive urination, nosebleed, high blood pressure, blood, in the vomit, in stools, high blood pressure present, abnormal urinalysis laboratory tests, reveal anemia, indicate reduced kidney functioning, azotemia, accumulation of nitrogenous wastes creatinine, urea, signs of chronic renal failure apparent, edema, swelling, polyneuropathy, signs of fluid overload, abnormal heart, lung sounds, a urinalysis, blood, casts protein, other abnormality, findings on kidney, abdominal ultrasound kidney, abdominal ct scan or ivp, non-specific, a chest x-ray, fluid overload, a kidney biopsy, the forms of chronic glomerulonephritis, non specific scarring, the glomeruli, tests, urine specific gravity, urine concentration test, uric acid, urine, total protein, urine rbc, urine protein, creatinine clearance, urine creatinine, complement component 3, complement, bun, anti-glomerular basement membrane, albumin, depending on the cause, the disorder, type, severity of symptoms, primary treatment goal is control of symptoms, high blood pressure difficult to control, generally the most important aspect of treatment, various antihypertensive medications used, to attempt to control high blood pressure, corticosteroids, immunosuppressives, medications, treat some, chronic glomerulonephritis, dietary restrictions on salt, fluids, protein, substances recommended to aid control of hypertension, kidney failure, dialysis, kidney transplantation necessary to control symptoms of renal failure, to sustain life, stress of illness, helped by joining support groups where members share common experiences, kidney disease, support group, depending on the cause, types of glomerulonephritis, have spontaneous remission, nephrotic syndrome is present, controlled, controlled, nephrotic syndrome is present, cannot be, controlled, end-stage renal disease, disorder gets worse at widely variable rates, nephrotic syndrome, acute nephritic syndrome, chronic renal failure, end-stage renal disease, hypertension, malignant hypertension, fluid overload, congestive heart failure, pulmonary edema, chronic, recurrent urinary tract infection, increased susceptibility to other infections, disorders associated, increased risk of glomerulonephritis, symptoms indicating glomerulonephritis develop, no specific prevention, most cases of glomerulonephritis, cases prevented by avoiding, limiting exposure to organic solvents, mercury, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory analgesics.
