How is there trace protein in urine to return a responsibility

summary

Grandfather recently went to the hospital for examination and found trace protein in his urine. Later, he was diagnosed with diabetic nephropathy. Due to the more possibilities, it is important to make clear the condition when it appears.

How is there trace protein in urine to return a responsibility

First: when a patient has hypertension or diabetes or both diseases (often occurring at the same time), renal vascular lesions will occur, which changes the function of renal filtration protein (especially albumin), which makes the protein leak into the urine. Microalbuminuria is an early sign of diabetic nephropathy.

Second, urinary microalbumin is the characterization of early renal damage in diabetic nephropathy and hypertensive nephropathy. No matter what kind of disease caused by urinary microalbumin is due to different initial causes of kidney inherent cell damage, so that the structure of kidney inherent cell changes, function changes with the change of structure, reflected in the urine.

Third: for the treatment of microalbuminuria, western medicine is widely used for anti-inflammatory hormone to reduce the progressive damage of renal intrinsic cells. Hormone treatment of microalbuminuria, in a short period of time, will produce good results. However, the damaged intrinsic cells of kidney have not been repaired. Therefore, if usually affected by a cold and other respiratory tract infections, the disease is more likely to be aggravated.

matters needing attention

Patients with high urinary protein should be appropriate to supplement fresh fruits or vegetables, especially foods with high vitamin or mineral content. At the same time, the food containing purine substance should be restricted to prevent the burden of kidney from increasing, thus aggravating the disease.
