Renal Biology

The kidneys are the fundamental organs of the urinary framework. They are bean shaped organs, each about the measure of a clench hand that serve a few vital administrative parts in vertebrates. They are found just underneath the rib confine, one on every side of the spine. Consistently, the two kidneys channel around 120 to 150 quarts of blood to deliver around 1 to 2 quarts of pee, made out of squanders and additional liquid.

Kidney Functions

The kidneys function as filters of the body by removing waste products and excess material. These are removed through urine. They also perform few functions like removing drugs from the body, balancing body’s fluids, release hormones that regulate blood pressure, etc.

Pediatric Nephrology

It is the division of Nephrology that is specialized in the diagnosis and treatment of children with acute and chronic diseases like hypertension, hematuria, proteinuria, renal tubular acidosis, nephrolithiasis, glomerulonephritis and kidney failure. It additionally looks after pediatric patients with end-stage kidney disease, patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis, hemodialysis and follow-up care after kidney transplantation.

Kidney Diseases

As we know that kidneys remove waste products from our body through urine with the help of nephrons, the tiny structures present with in kidneys that filter the blood. Most of the diseases attack nephrons, which makes kidneys unable to remove wastes and thus leading to diseases. The diseases are of two types, acute and chronic diseases.

Diagnosis for Kidney Diseases

Kidneys play vital role in the body by removing waste. There are few tests to measure the kidney functions such as blood tests, imaging tests, urine tests, etc.

Renal Failure

It is the condition where the kidneys fail to filter metabolic wastes from blood. There are numerous causes of kidney failure, and treatment of the underlying disease may be the first step in correcting the kidney abnormality. Some causes of kidney failure are treatable and in some cases it’s untreatable. The two main forms of kidney failure are acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease.

Diabetic Nephropathy

Nephropathy implies kidney ailment or harm. Diabetic nephropathy is damage to your kidneys brought about by diabetes. In extreme cases it can prompt kidney damage. The kidneys have many tiny blood vessels that filter waste from your blood. High blood sugar from diabetes can destroy these blood vessels. Over time, the kidney isn't able to do its job as well leading to kidney failure.

Renal Replacement Therapy

Renal replacement therapy (RRT) is therapy that replaces nonendocrine kidney function in patients with renal failure which includes acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. Renal replacement therapy includes dialysis, hemofiltration and hemodiafiltration. It also includes kidney transplantation, which is the ultimate form of replacement of old kidney with the donor kidney.

Renal Medicine

Nephrology is a specialty of medicine and pediatrics that concerns itself with the study of normal kidney function, kidney problems, the treatment of kidney problems and renal replacement therapy. Renal Medicine offers the challenge of looking after both acutely ill patients and those with a chronic disease.

Kidney Transplantation

A kidney transplant is an operation in which a person with kidney failure receives a new kidney. The new kidney takes over the work of cleaning the blood. There are two types of kidney transplants: those that come from living donors and those that come from unrelated donors who have died (non-living donors).

When kidney fails, there are three treatment choices:

1. hemodialysis 2. peritoneal dialysis 3. kidney transplantation

Treatment for Kidney Diseases

When the disease attacks nephrons, the kidneys fail to work. Depending on the underlying cause, some types of kidney disease can be treated. But kidney damage can continue to worsen in few cases. In such cases the treatment complications can include high blood pressure medications, medications to lower cholesterol levels, medications to treat anemia, dialysis, kidney transplant, etc.

Pathophysiology of Renal Diseases

Hypertension is one of the leading causes of CKD due to the deleterious effects that increased BP has on kidney vasculature. Long-term, uncontrolled, high BP leads to high intraglomerular pressure, impairing glomerular filtration. Decreased renal function interferes with the kidneys’ ability to maintain fluid and electrolyte homeostasis. The ability to concentrate urine declines early and is followed by decreases in ability to excrete phosphate, acid, and potassium.

Renal Immunology

Immunological processes are implicated in many renal diseases. In several situations, diagnosing and treating immunological processes can halt or reverse renal impairment. The immunological tests can include: ANCA, Anti glomerular basement membrane, ANA, Serum and urine electrophoresis, C3, C4.

Renal Pharmacology

In pharmacology the elimination or excretion of a drug is understood to be any one of a number of processes by which a drug is eliminated from an organism either in an unaltered form or modified as a metabolite. The kidneys are the principal organs for excreting water-soluble substances.

Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process (FEE-Review Process):
Journal of Nephrology & Renal Diseases is participating in the Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process (FEE-Review Process) with an additional prepayment of $99 apart from the regular article processing fee. Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process is a special service for the article that enables it to get a faster response in the pre-review stage from the handling editor as well as a review from the reviewer. An author can get a faster response of pre-review maximum in 3 days since submission, and a review process by the reviewer maximum in 5 days, followed by revision/publication in 2 days. If the article gets notified for revision by the handling editor, then it will take another 5 days for external review by the previous reviewer or alternative reviewer.

Acceptance of manuscripts is driven entirely by handling editorial team considerations and independent peer-review, ensuring the highest standards are maintained no matter the route to regular peer-reviewed publication or a fast editorial review process. The handling editor and the article contributor are responsible for adhering to scientific standards. The article FEE-Review process of $99 will not be refunded even if the article is rejected or withdrawn for publication.

The corresponding author or institution/organization is responsible for making the manuscript FEE-Review Process payment. The additional FEE-Review Process payment covers the fast review processing and quick editorial decisions, and regular article publication covers the preparation in various formats for online publication, securing full-text inclusion in a number of permanent archives like HTML, XML, and PDF, and feeding to different indexing agencies.
