Journal of Clinical Nephrology and Research

A multidisciplinary, open-access, peer-reviewed scholarly magazine called Clinical Nephrology and Research publishes original scientific publications based on contemporary advancements in the study, diagnosis, and treatment of kidney illnesses. Clinical nephrology, diabetic nephropathy, paediatric nephrology, renal replacement treatment, dialysis, kidney transplantation, and immunosuppressant management are all included in the scope of the Clinical Nephrology and Research Journal Distinguished academics and researchers from all over the world have cited articles that have been published in Clinical Nephrology and Research. Every article in Clinical Nephrology and Research receives an average of 2 citations according to its h-index of 2, which is 2. Journal Highlights: DIABETIC NEPHROPATHY One frequent consequence of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes is diabetic nephropathy. Diabetes that is not properly managed over time might harm blood vessel clusters in your kidneys that filter waste from your blood. High blood pressure and renal damage may result from this. By putting more strain on the kidneys' sensitive filtering system, high blood pressure can exacerbate existing kidney disease. PEDIATRIC NEPHROLOGY Original clinical research on acute and chronic conditions that affect children's blood pressure, fluid and electrolyte balance, renal function, and other conditions is published in Pediatric Nephrology. Studies may focus on imaging methods, the effects of acute or chronic kidney illness, medicinal, surgical, dietary, physiologic, biochemical, genetic, pathologic, or immunologic components of disease. RENAL REPLACEMENT THERAPY Renal replacement therapy (RRT) is a form of treatment that takes the place of the kidneys' typical role of filtering blood. When the kidneys are not functioning properly, which includes acute renal injury and chronic kidney disease, the condition is known as kidney failure. Renal replacement therapy includes hemofiltration, hemodiafiltration, and dialysis (hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis), which are different methods of blood filtration with or without machinery. Kidney transplantation, the most extreme form of replacement in which the damaged kidney is replaced with a donor kidney, is a component of renal replacement therapy. DIALYSIS When the kidneys cease functioning properly, a treatment called dialysis is used to eliminate waste materials and extra fluid from the blood. Blood is frequently directed to a machine to be cleansed in this process. In a typical state, the kidneys filter the blood, eliminating dangerous wastes and extra fluid, and converting them into urine that may be expelled from the body. I need dialysis, but why? Your kidneys may not be able to adequately clear the blood if they are not functioning properly, such as if you have advanced chronic renal disease (kidney failure). Your body can accumulate waste materials and fluid to harmful amounts. This can result in a variety of unpleasant symptoms and can be fatal if left untreated. For how long will I require dialysis? It varies. Kidney failure may occasionally only be a short-term issue, in which case dialysis can be discontinued once your kidneys have recovered. However, kidney failure patients frequently require kidney transplants. Since a kidney transplant is not always possible right away, dialysis may be required while waiting for a suitable donor kidney to become available. Dialysis may be required for the remainder of your life if a kidney transplant is not an option for you, such as if you are not well enough for a major operation. IMMUNOSUPPRESSANT MANAGEMENT Immunosuppressive drugs prevent the immune system from harming healthy tissues and cells. These medications are used to stop transplant rejection in recipients of stem cell and organ transplants. The medications also address the symptoms of autoimmune diseases. Immunosuppressants are potent medications that need to be carefully monitored to prevent side effects.
