Introduction

This is a case of CPL JCM, 45 years old, male, Filipino, admitted in the institution on January 28, 2017. The patient is known hypertensive for 5 years with the
highest BP of 190/100 and usual BP of 130/80, poorly compliant to Nifedipine. Patient is also a known case of Diabetes for 7 years, maintained on Metformin
500mg, 1tab BID. Patient was admitted at the institution last January 2015 with an initial diagnosis of CKD stage V secondary to Chronic Glomerulonephritis,
Hypertensive Cardiovascular Disease FCII, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Statistics
CPL JCM is among the 1.2 million Filipinos who is suffering from renal diseases in the country today, requiring either dialysis for them to live.

According to the Department of Health, renal disease is now one of the top ten causes of death among Filipinos. In fact, seven thousand patients die annually due to
kidney malfunction in the country. It is alarming that the prevalence of renal diseases has been increasing especially at the end-stage.

The Philippines is one of the countries with a high risk population when it comes to renal disease because of numerous cases of diabetes, high blood pressure and
other hereditary diseases, all of which can lead to kidney malfunction and even heart attack. In fact, among the leading causes of kidney failure in the country are
diabetes (41%), inflammation of the kidney (24%) and high blood pressure (22%).

Worldwide, there is also an alarming level of renal disease with more than 500 million persons, about 10% of the adult population, suffering from some form of
damage to the kidneys. Over 1.5 million of them are kept alive either through dialysis or kidney transplant. Every year, over 12 million individuals die prematurely
of cardiovascular diseases linked to chronic renal disease. The numbers are rapidly increasing with the global epidemic of diabetes mellitus.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a condition characterized by a gradual loss of kidney function over time. To read more about kidney function, see How Your
Kidneys Work. CKD is also known as chronic renal disease.

Chronic kidney disease includes conditions that damage your kidneys and decrease their ability to keep you healthy by doing the jobs listed. If kidney disease gets
worse, wastes can build to high levels in your blood and make you feel sick. You may develop complications like high blood pressure, anemia (low blood count),
weak bones, poor nutritional health and nerve damage. Also, kidney disease increases your risk of having heart and blood vessel disease. These problems may
happen slowly over a long period of time. Chronic kidney disease may be caused by diabetes, high blood pressure and other disorders. Early detection and treatment
can often keep chronic kidney disease from getting worse. When kidney disease progresses, it may eventually lead to kidney failure, which requires dialysis or a
kidney transplant to maintain life.
Since the 1950s, kidney disease has been clearly recognized as a common complication of diabetes mellitus (DM), with as many as 50% of patients with DM of
more than 20 years duration having this complication.
United States statistics
Diabetic nephropathy rarely develops before 10 years duration of type 1 DM (previously known as insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus [IDDM]). Approximately
3% of newly diagnosed patients with type 2 DM (previously known as noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus [NIDDM]) have overt nephropathy. The peak
incidence (3%/y) is usually found in persons who have had diabetes for 10-20 years, after which the rate progressively declines.
The risk for the development of diabetic nephropathy is low in a normoalbuminuric patient with diabetes duration of greater than 30 years. Patients who have no
proteinuria after 20-25 years have a risk of developing overt renal disease of only approximately 1% per year.
In terms of diabetic kidney disease in the United States, the prevalence increased from 1988-2008 in proportion to the prevalence of diabetes. [11] Among people with
diabetes, the prevalence of diabetic kidney disease remained stable.
International statistics
Striking epidemiologic differences exist even among European countries. In some European countries, particularly Germany, the proportion of patients admitted for
renal replacement therapy exceeds the figures reported from the United States. In Heidelberg (southwest Germany), 59% of patients admitted for renal replacement
therapy in 1995 had diabetes and 90% of those had type 2 DM. An increase in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) from type 2 DM has been noted even in countries
with notoriously low incidences of type 2 DM, such as Denmark and Australia. Exact incidence and prevalence from Asia are not readily available.
A study from the Netherlands suggested that diabetic nephropathy is underdiagnosed. Using renal tissue specimens from autopsies, Klessens et al found
histopathologic changes associated with diabetic nephropathy in 106 of 168 patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. However, 20 of the 106 patients did not during
their lifetime present with the clinical manifestations of diabetic nephropathy.

Background of the disease

Diabetic nephropathy -- kidney disease that results from diabetes -- is the number one cause of kidney failure. Almost a third of people with diabetes develop diabetic
nephropathy.
People with diabetes and kidney disease do worse overall than people with kidney disease alone. This is because people with diabetes tend to have other long-standing
medical conditions, like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and blood vessel disease (atherosclerosis). People with diabetes also are more likely to have other kidney-
related problems, such as bladder infections and nerve damage to the bladder.
Kidney disease in type 1 diabetes is slightly different than in type 2 diabetes. In type 1 diabetes, kidney disease rarely begins in the first 10 years after diagnosis of
diabetes. In type 2 diabetes, some patients already have kidney disease by the time they are diagnosed with diabetes.

Anatomy of the Urinary System

The two kidneys lie to the sides of the upper part of the tummy (abdomen), behind the intestines and either side of the spine. Each kidney is about the size of a large
orange but bean-shaped.

A large artery - the renal artery - takes blood to each kidney. The artery divides into many tiny blood vessels (capillaries) throughout the kidney. In the outer part of
the kidneys, tiny blood vessels cluster together to form structures called glomeruli.
Each

glomerulus is like a filter. The structure of the glomerulus allows waste


products and some water and salt to pass from the blood into a tiny channel
called a tubule whilst keeping blood cells and protein in the bloodstream.

Each glomerulus and tubule makes up a nephron. There are about one million nephrons in
each kidney.
As the waste products and water pass along the tubule there is a complex adjustment of
the content. For example, some water and salts may be absorbed back into the
bloodstream, depending on the current level of water and salt in your blood. Tiny
blood vessels next to each tubule enable this 'fine tuning' of the transfer of water and
salts between the tubules and the blood.

The liquid that remains at the end of each tubule is called urine. This drains into larger channels (collecting ducts) which
drain into the inner part of the kidney (the renal pelvis). The urine then passes down a tube called a ureter which goes
from each kidney to the bladder. Urine is stored in the bladder until it is passed out when we go to the toilet.

The 'cleaned' (filtered) blood from each kidney collects into a large vein - the renal vein - which takes the blood back towards the heart.

Functions of the kidneys:

remove waste products from the body

remove drugs from the body

balance the body's fluids


release hormones that regulate blood pressure

produce an active form of vitamin D that promotes strong, healthy bones

control the production of red blood cells

PATHOPHYSIOLOGY OF THE FACTORS CONTRIBUTING TO CKD

Diabetes Mellitus Type 2

"Diabetes mellitus," more commonly referred to as "diabetes," is a condition that causes blood sugar to rise to dangerous levels: fasting blood glucose of 126
milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) or more.

After eating a meal, the food is broken down by the digestive system and blood sugar (or glucose) rises. The pancreas is an organ that produces a hormone called
insulin. With the help of insulin, the body's cells take up the glucose and use it for energy. When your body does not produce enough insulin and/or does not
efficiently use the insulin it produces, sugar levels rise in the bloodstream. When this happens, it can cause two problems:

1. Right away, the body's cells may be starved for energy.

2. Over time, high blood glucose levels damage the eyes, kidneys, nerves or heart.

Type 2 Diabetesis the most common form of diabetes. diagnosed primarily in adults.The body develops "insulin resistance" and can't make efficient
use of the insulin it makes, and the pancreas gradually loses its capacity to produce insulin.
Diabetes link to Kidneys disease:
Chronic hyperglycemiais thought to be the primary cause of diabetic
nephropathy

Glomerular hyperfiltration:
o Glomerular hyperfiltration is mediated mainly via dilatation the
afferent arteriole leading to a rise in the GFR and the renal blood flow.
Hyperglycemia and high insulin-like growth factor-1
(IGF-1) concentrations (observed in diabetic patients) both are
hypothesized to cause a rise in the GFR increasing renal flow
Hyperfiltration of glucose leads to augmented sodium-
glucose transport in the proximal convoluted tubule causing
enhanced sodium transport
Cause expansion of blood volume which leads
to a rise in GFR
The rise in proximal reabsorption also leads to a
reduced distal fluid delivery which activates the
tubuloglomerular feedback with the renin-angiotensin system
which works to raise the GFR as well.
Hyperglycemia and AGE:
o Hyperglycemia and AGE directly induce mesangial matrix
production, cellular expansion and apoptosis.
o The two have also been shown to increase basement membrane
permeability to albumin.
Cytokines:
o Elevations in vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF),
transforming growth factor beta (TFG-), and profibrotic proteins
increase damage to the nephrons at different levels.
Hypertension Cardiovascular Disease FCIII

Hypertension link to Kidney disease:

Glomerular and vascular changes:


1. Elevated systemic blood pressures cause a hypertrophic response leading
to intimal thickening of the large and the small vasculature.
2. The mechanisms are compensatory at first, but later lead to glomerular
damage
Global sclerosis ischemic injury to the nephrons causes death
Focal segmental sclerosis glomerular enlargement for
compensation of the loss of nephrons in other areas of the kidney.

Interstitial nephritis:
1. The vascular and glomerular disease lead to tubular atrophy and an
intense chronic interstitial nephritis
The intense chronic interstitial nephritis is thought be secondary to
immunologic processes against ischemia-mediated antigen
changes on the tubular epithelial cell surface.

Chronically these changes lead to tubular and glomerular loss
causing nephrons loss.
1. With the death of some nephrons, less are available to maintain the GFR.
2. Gradual decline in the GFR is noticed as the nephrons continue to die.

Urinary Tract Infection


A urinary tract infection is a bacterial infection that
grows within the urinary tract - anywhere from
the kidneys, the ureters, the bladder and through to the
urethra.
Common Complicated UTI in Diabetic Patient:
Causative agent (E.coli)

Emphysematous pyelonephritis a severe,


necrotizing form of multifocal bacterial nephritis
with gas formation within the renal parenchyma
Emphysematous pyelitis the presence of gas
localized to the renal collecting system.
Emphysematous cystitis occurs rarely,
characterized by pockets of gas in and around the
bladder wall produced by bacterial or fungal
fermentation

Kidney disease link to UTI:

This is due to the presence of glycosuria, neutrophil


dysfunction, increase bacterial growth to the uroepthelial
cells, metabolic control, nephropathy, bladder not fully
emptying, resistance of pathogen.

Anemia

Anemia is a condition in which your blood has a lower than normal number
of red blood cells. Anemia also can occur if your red blood cells don't
contain enough hemoglobin Hemoglobin is an iron-rich protein that gives
blood its red color. This protein helps red blood cells carry oxygen from the
lungs to the rest of the body.

Kidney disease link to Anemia:


The interstitial fibroblast cells in the kidneys make an important hormone
called erythropoietin (EPO). The kidney cells that make erythropoietin are
sensitive to low oxygen levels in the blood that travels through the kidney.
These cells make and release erythropoietin when the oxygen level is too
low. A low oxygen level may indicate a diminished number of red blood
cells in the body. EPO will signal your bone marrow to make red blood
cells. When you have kidney disease, your kidneys cannot make enough
EPO due to the damaged tissues and cells. Low EPO levels cause your red
blood cell count to drop and anemia to develop.

Chronic Glomerulonephritis (CGN)


Chronic glomerulonephritis is caused by slow, cumulative damage and
scarring of the tiny blood filters (glomeruli) in the kidneys. These filters,
known as glomeruli, other terms used are nephritis and nephrotic
syndrome. When the kidney is injured, it cannot get rid of wastes and extra
fluid in the body. If the illness continues, the kidneys may stop working
completely, resulting in kidney failure.
Secondary Cause of CGN isdiabetic nephropathy

CGN link to CKD


-Altered basement membrane composition with loss of heparin sulfate that
forms the negatively charged filtration barrier.
-Mesangial matrix expansion due to accumulation of the extracellular
matrix (ECM).
-Vascular changes with hyaline and hypertensive arteriosclerosis.

Chronic Kidney Disease (Stage 5)


Progressive loss of renal functions over time; based on a gradual decline
in the GFR and creatinine clearance. The diagnosis of CKD requires the
following:
1. Decline of kidney function for 3 months or more AND
2. Evidence of kidney damage (e.g. albuminuria or abnormal biopsy) OR
GFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2

Two main categories of Kidney damage:

Microalbuminuria: in this condition, the amount of albumin that leaks


into the urine is between 30 and 300 mg per day. It is also called
incipient nephropathy.

Proteinuria: in this condition the amount of albumin that leaks into the
urine is more than 300 mg per day. It is also called macroalbuminuria or
overt nephropathy.

Each patient is classified into one of the following 5 stages


of CKD because management and prognosis varies according to the
progression of damage.
Stage 1: Kidney damage with normal or increased GFR (>90 mL/min/1.73
m2)
Stage 2: Mild reduction in GFR (60-89 mL/min/1.73 m2)
Stage 3: Moderate reduction in GFR (30-59 mL/min/1.73 m2)
Stage 4: Severe reduction in GFR (15-29 mL/min/1.73 m2)
Stage 5: Kidney failure (GFR <15 mL/min/1.73 m2 or dialysis)


DIAGNOSTIC TESTS FOR CKD

Early detection and treatment of chronic kidney disease are the keys to keeping kidney disease from
progressing to kidney failure.

1. A test for protein in the urine. Albumin to Creatinine Ratio (ACR), estimates the amount of a albumin that is
in your urine. An excess amount of protein in your urine may mean your kidney's
filtering units have been damaged by disease. One positive result could be due to
fever or heavy exercise, so your doctor will want to confirm your test over several
weeks.
2. A test for blood creatinine. Your results, along with your age, race, gender and
other factors, to calculate your glomerular filtration rate (GFR).


TERMINOLOGIES

1. An embolism is the lodging of an embolus, a blockage-causing piece of material, inside a blood vessel. The embolus may be a blood clot (thrombus), a fat
globule, a bubble of air or other gas (gas embolism), or foreign material. An embolismcan cause partial or total blockage of blood flow in the affected
vessel.

2. Lipiduria or lipuria is the presence of lipids in the urine. Lipiduria is most frequently observed in nephrotic syndrome where it is passed as lipoproteins
along with other proteins. It has also been reported as a sign following fat embolism.
3. The reninangiotensin system (RAS) or the reninangiotensinaldosterone system (RAAS) is a hormone system that is involved in the regulation of the
plasma sodium concentration and arterial blood pressure.

4. The Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS)

Your body has a huge system involved in the sensation and control of blood pressure, not only within the kidneys, but all over the body - especially in times
of great need. This is in contrast to a smaller system called tubuloglomerular feedback, which you can think of as the system that senses and controls blood
pressure and glomerular filtration rate within the kidneys on a moment-by-moment basis. When called upon, this smaller system can also rev up the really
big system I'm about to get into. So, what is this really big system?
Could I get a drumroll? The most important system involved in the regulation of systemic blood pressure, renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate is
called the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, or (RAAS) for short.
The Release of Renin

When systemic hypotension, or low blood pressure throughout the body, occurs, receptors in your blood vessels called baroreceptors sense this change. Cells
of the kidney's juxtaglomerular apparatus get involved as well. Detection by one or both of these mechanisms leads juxtaglomerular cells in the kidneys to
release an enzyme called renin. Renin is an enzyme released by the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidneys in response to low blood pressure, causing the
transformation of angiotensinogen to angiotensin I.

Angiotensinogen & Angiotensin I

Angiotensinogen is a precursor protein made in the liver for a hormone called angiotensin I. Essentially, renin catalyzes a reaction that converts the
angiotensinogen protein into angiotensin I, which is a precursor hormone that is converted to an active hormone called angiotensin II by an enzyme known
as angiotensin-converting enzyme in the lungs. Wow, that was a mouthful! Let's break this down.
Here's how to remember what becomes what. Angiotensinogen's purpose is to serve as a precursor to angiotensin I. Angiotensinogen is cleaved, or broken
apart, by renin. Since it's broken apart, it gets smaller and becomes shorter in name as well. Therefore, it's now called plain old angiotensin I. Angiotensin I
decides to have a little kid and name it after itself. Therefore, when angiotensin I is converted in the lungs by an enzyme called ACE, it becomes angiotensin
junior - or more technically, angiotensin II.

Angiotensin I is converted into angiotensin II


in the lungs by the enzyme ACE
5. Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) & Angiotensin II

It bears repeating that the angiotensin-converting enzyme, or ACE for short, is an enzyme located mainly in the lungs that converts angiotensin I into
angiotensin II. Once angiotensin II is made, it can have a big effect on the body. Namely, angiotensin II is a vasoconstrictive hormone that increases
systemic blood pressure, renal perfusion pressure and the glomerular filtration rate.
Angiotensin II not only constricts blood vessels all over the body in order to increase systemic blood pressure, it also works in the kidneys in order to
maintain blood pressure in the glomerulus so that the glomerular filtration rate stays normal even in the face of low blood pressure.

6. Control of the Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) by the RAAS

Let's see how this works with a familiar example. If you connect a hose to a faucet and turn the faucet on, a certain pressure will be exerted by the water on
the walls of the hose. Likewise, blood running through the glomerulus (our hose) does the same thing. If the faucet is turned down a bit due to hypotension,
there is less water running through the hose and therefore less pressure being exerted on the hose. If this were to happen in our glomerulus due to
hypotension, this would be very bad. We need to maintain pressure in the glomerulus at a certain level if we want to filter our blood enough to stay alive.
To maintain pressure in the glomerulus and therefore keep the glomerular filtration rate steady, angiotensin II constricts both the efferent and afferent
arteriole, but with a much greater effect on the efferent arteriole. Remember, the effect of angiotensin II is greater on the efferent arteriole. This means that
the blood entering the glomerulus has a much harder time leaving it because the exit is far smaller than the entrance. This causes a backup of blood in the
glomerulus, increases the pressure within it and, therefore, keeps the GFR at an appropriate rate.

Angiotensin II constricts the afferent and


efferent arterioles.

In addition, angiotensin II increases the absorption of sodium in the renal tubule. Since water follows sodium, it increases the amount of fluid in the blood
vessels, further causing an increase in blood pressure in addition to the vasoconstriction that already occurred.
7. Aldosterone

Angiotensin does some other important things that you must remember. It causes the release of a hormone called aldosterone from the adrenal glands.
Aldosterone is a hormone that increases the absorption of water from the distal convoluted tubule and collecting duct of the kidney's nephrons.
Aldosterone has many other functions, including the secretion of potassium into urine. However, for this lesson, you should understand that aldosterone
causes the absorption of sodium out of the renal tubule's filtrate and into the blood. Since water follows sodium, more water is reabsorbed back into the
blood in order to increase the blood pressure.

8. Definition of SCLEROSIS

- pathological hardening of tissue especially from overgrowth of fibrous tissue or increase in interstitial tissue; also : a disease characterized
by sclerosis
-an inability or reluctance to adapt or compromise

9. Medical Definition of ONCOTIC PRESSURE

the pressure exerted by plasma proteins on the capillary wall

10. Definition of ATHEROMA

-an abnormal fatty deposit in an artery


-fatty degeneration of the inner coat of the arteries

11. Medical Definition of ATHEROSCLEROSIS

- an arteriosclerosis characterized by atheromatous deposits in and fibrosis of the inner layer of the arteries
12. Cytokines

Your body is made up of trillions of cells. These cells are basic units of life; they carry out all the vital functions that keep you alive. But did you know that
your cells lead very active social lives? Take the cells of your immune system, for instance. These cells are constantly sending out signals to let other cells
know what's going on. To communicate, your immune cells use cytokines, which are a group of proteins secreted by cells of the immune system that act as
chemical messengers.
Cytokines released from one cell affect the actions of other cells by binding to receptors on their surface. You can think of these receptors as mailboxes. They
receive the cytokine's chemical message, and then the receiving cell performs activities based on that message.
There are different types of cytokines, including chemokines, interferons, interleukins, lymphokines and tumor necrosis factor. They can act alone, work
together or work against each other, but ultimately the role of cytokines is to help regulate the immune response. Cytokines are involved in many aspects of
inflammation and immunity. In fact, you can blame the different cytokines for triggering some familiar symptoms that arise when your body fights an
infection, such as fever, inflammation and pain.

13. Chemokines

Chemokines are a type of cytokines that call in cells to the site of infection. You might recall that the ability to call in other cells using a chemical message is
a process referred to as chemotaxis. This fact shows us how this type of cytokine gets its name; chemokines induce chemotaxis. Chemokines are the
coordinators of the battle. For example, when a foreign substance is detected, chemical orders are sent out to immune cells, including various white blood
cells. These cells then travel toward the area to eliminate the threat.

14. Interferons

Interferons are proteins that inhibit viruses from replicating. If a cell gets invaded by a virus, it releases interferons. This signals other cells to put up their
shields so the virus does not spread. So, interferons interfere with the spread of a virus. Interferons also activate natural killer T-cells. These cells further the
fight against the virus by destroying infected cells.
