The performance of lupus nephritis

1, systemic manifestations
Systemic manifestations of lupus nephritis with fever, arthritis and skin and mucous membrane damage is the most common. The system is accompanied by involvement of the liver, heart, central nervous system and blood-forming organs, more than 1/3 of patients with polyserositis (pleural and pericardial). Pulmonary hemorrhage may also be the main one of the manifestations of the disease, with Goodpasture's disease and small vessel vasculitis differentiated, Renault sign found in 40% of patients.
2, the renal manifestations
The ① subclinical or "silent" type: kidney involvement, performance, urine negative, but the pathology is often varying degrees of disease.
② Light: 30% to 50% without clinical symptoms, the only light to moderate proteinuria (
③ nephrotic syndrome: about 40% to 60%, showed massive proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia and edema, occasional elevated blood cholesterol, diseases, late hypertension, renal dysfunction, the majority of patients to renal failure.
④ chronic nephritis: about 35% to 50%, hypertension and varying degrees of proteinuria, urinary sediment, a large number of red blood cells and casts, and more with impaired renal function.
The ⑤ acute nephritis: the performance of the clinical manifestations of acute nephritis.
⑥ rapidly progressive nephritis oliguric acute renal failure, or light or by the nephrotic syndrome; in a short period of time
Transformed from Pathology showed crescentic glomerulonephritis
⑦ tubule interstitial damage; clinical manifestations of renal tubular acidosis, nocturia, increased blood pressure, increased urine β2-microglobulin, half of the patients with renal dysfunction.
⑧ of antiphospholipid antibodies: antiphospholipid antibody positive, major clinical manifestations of large and small arterial and venous thrombosis and embolism, platelet reduction and tendency to abortion.
To ⑨ acute renal failure type; oliguric acute renal failure and pathologic findings for acute tubular necrosis in a short period of time
⑩ chronic renal failure, type: varying degrees of proteinuria, hematuria, and edema, impaired renal function.
In summary, the above is about the performance of lupus nephritis? Allows people to timely diagnosis of lupus nephritis, lupus nephritis patients but also timely symptomatic treatment, eat more fruits and vegetables.
