But would you think

Kidney disease can actually

“Find” primary school students?

Love snacks and drinks

Primary school boy suffers from obesity-related nephropathy

Xiaodong, a first-year junior high school student in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, weighed 170 kilograms. After examination by a doctor, he was diagnosed with obesity-related nephropathy. How did this result come about? It all started two years ago.

Two years ago, Xiaodong, who was still in primary school, had foamy urine. Upon seeing this, his parents immediately took Xiaodong to Zhejiang Provincial Zhongshan Hospital for treatment. The doctor found through a series of examinations that several of Xiaodong's indicators were worrying: blood creatinine exceeded the standard and there were 3 urine proteins, indicating renal damage.

After understanding his living habits, the doctor learned that Xiaodong always ate snacks and drank beverages as water in addition to his three meals a day. These habits accumulated over time and laid the hidden dangers of disease.

Because kidney damage is mainly caused by obesity, the key to treatment is weight control. The doctor prescribed a weight loss prescription for Xiaodong, asking him to give up cola, drink more water, control his diet, increase exercise, and combine it with injections and drugs to suppress appetite. After three months of treatment, Xiaodong lost more than 40 kilograms, his urine protein improved significantly, and his creatinine value stabilized.

But two years later, Xiaodong's weight began to rebound, so he had to go to the hospital again. The doctor warned Xiaodong's parents that if this continued, Xiaodong would most likely develop uremia when he grew up.

Chronic kidney disease is a long-term battle that requires patients to adhere to self-management in order to keep their condition stable in the long term.

Too much socializing leads to unstable blood sugar

47-year-old diabetic diagnosed with uremia

Because his blood sugar was not well controlled, 47-year-old sales manager Huang Ke (pseudonym) entered the terminal stage of diabetic nephropathy - uremia, and can only rely on hemodialysis to sustain his life in the future.

Huang Ke has suffered from diabetes for more than 20 years. He went to the Zhejiang Provincial Zhongshan Hospital for treatment last week. He said that he was severely swollen, couldn't urinate, and was easily fatigued. He originally thought that his body had not recovered after Yang Kang, and after more than a month of observation, his blood sugar and blood pressure soared, so he came for a follow-up examination.

The test results were like a bolt from the blue. Huang Ke's blood creatinine had reached over 600μmoI/L. He was already in the late stage of uremia and needed blood purification treatment next.

The doctor who received the patient felt sorry for the condition. He had too many social engagements at work, irregular meals, and poorly controlled blood sugar, which led to the rapid progression of the disease.

Doctors emphasize two aspects of management

One is the management of disease treatment, which requires standardized and reasonable treatment, strict control of blood sugar, blood pressure, and urine protein, and the maintenance of stable renal function as much as possible;

The second is healthy living habits, including moderate exercise, balanced diet, weight control, quitting smoking and drinking, and maintaining a happy mood.
