What happens to a person if they suffer a kidney failure?
Renal failure is a serious medical condition affecting the kidneys. When a person suffers from renal failure, their kidneys are not functioning properly or no longer work at all. Renal failure can be a progressive disease or a temporary one depending on the cause and available treatment options.
How NSAIDS cause renal failure?
NSAIDS can induce two forms of acute renal failure: 1. Haemodynamically mediated 2. Acute interstitial nephritis Haemodynamically mediated: Renal prostaglandins are vasodilators, but do not play a major role in renal haemodynamics in healthy patients and the basal rate is relatively low. When there is underlying disease, such as heart failure, cirrhosis or volume depletion, the levels of hormone: PGs are increased and they act as vasodilators to ensure adequate renal flow and GFR. Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis with an NSAID in such patients can lead to reversible renal ischemia, a ↓ in GFR and acute renal failure. NSAIDs also produce interstitial nephritis with or without nephrotic syndrome secondary to minimal change disease. Although this presents as acute renal failure, it can progress in some cases to chronic renal failure. NSAIDs increase the risk of developing heart failure in patients with a history of HTN, DM or renal failure, particularly in the first month of use.

Why diuretics contraindicated in sever renal failure?
ALL diuretics are renal poisons, (some worse than others, I admit) and in failure your kidneys are already in enough trouble.from Japonesitaloca:I disagree. Way too general of a statement.Diuretics: actually diuretics are commonly used in chronic renal failure and are effective. High doses of furosemide (LASIX) areoften given with good results (doses have to be high cuz renal failure makes the kidneys less responsive to it)...if effects areinsufficient with LASIX, we often give another thiazide type diuretic metolazone (ZAROXYLYN) 30 min. before the lasix toincrease the effects--the 2 drugs together are a lot more effective.In acute renal failure, it has been shown the diuretics have had negative effects (increased mortality, non-recovery of kidneys, increased hospital days)-but the attraction in diuretics in ARF lies in the excretion of sodium and water

How glomerulonephritis cause renal failure?
Yes it can but not always. There are several pathological patterns of glomerulonephritis grouped into proliferative and non-proliferative types. The prognosis and treatment of each is different and very dependent on whether the disease is a primary or secondary type. That is to say internal to the kidney or external; post infection/viral/bacterial/drugs/diabeties etc.Generally, Acute Renal Failure is caused by the rapid injury on kidneys. The causes are as following:1. Hypovolemia: serious loss of blood volume may lead to Renal Failure.2. Abnormal blood circulation:Abnormal circulation may lead to obstruction of renal artery or vein, thus causing ischemia state, then aggravate injury on kidneys;3. Drug abuse:Due to kidneys are the main organ for eliminating toxins, most drugs will do harm to kidneys. For example, some patients with kidney disease take large amounts of diuretics which will cause the excessive loss of water, which may lead to Acute Renal Failure.Comparing with Acute Renal Failure, causes of Chronic Renal Failure are complicated.1. Common disease:There are two kinds of disease may lead to Renal Failure. On one hand, kidney disease may develop into Renal Failure. Chronic glomerulonephritis is one of the common cause and including IgA Nephropathy, Mesangial Proliferative Glomerulonephritis and focal segmental sclerosing glomerulonephritis, etc. In addition, polycystic kidney disease,reflux nephropathy, kidney stones and prostate disease can also cause Renal Failure.On the other hand, other disease can also cause Renal Failure, such as poorly controlled diabetes, Hypertension and so on.2. Infectious nephropathy:Chronic Pyelonephritis, nephrotuberculosis, etc. Serious infection may lead to Renal Failure while patients with Renal Failure should also pay attention to avoiding infection.3. Accumulation of ECM:Eextracellular matrix (ECM) is not easily to be degraded, so the abundant deposition and of ECM will replace nephrons, thus leading continuous glomerulus sclerosis.4. Gene factors:Polycystic Kidney Disease and Alport syndrome are the main kidney disease relating with gene. Patients with family history of kidney disease should treat the disease timely to avoid Renal Failure.5. Others:ureteral obstruction,vasculitis, Multiple Myeloma and so on can also cause injury on kidneys, thus leading to the occurrence of Renal Failure.

What is the pathway of a glucose molecule from the renal artery to the renal vein?
Pathway of glucose and other molecules from renal artery to renal vein is the following . 1 renal artery , 2 arcuate artery ,3 interlobular artery , 4 afferenr renal arteriole , 5 glomerulus , 6 efferent renal arteriole , 7 peritubular network of capillaries including vasa recta , 8 interlobular vein , 9 arcuate vein and 10 renal vein .
When the blood pH is raised or lowered and the source of acid does not involve the respiratory system it is considered?
You could consider: 1. drug induced acidosis 2. diabetes or starvation 3. true metabolic acidosis 4. renal failure acidosis
