Obesity is a disease, with obesity patients increasing, obesity-related nephropathy gradually began to be recognized. In 1974, Weisinger first reported the relationship between severe obesity and proteinuria. Subsequent studies have found that glomerular hypertrophy and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) lesions can be observed in renal biopsy patients with obesity-induced proteinuria. Changes in the physiological function of the kidney showed increased renal blood flo w and increased glomerular filtration rate.Obesity-related nephropathy is relatively occult. 54.4% of patients with no obvious clinical symptoms, and more in the physical examination found abnormal urine and treatment. Clinical manifestations of proteinuria, mostly light, moderate proteinuria-based, and a large number of proteinuria (> 3.5g / 24h) accounted for only 10.0%. The amount of urinary protein in patients is associated with obesity. In the body mass index ≥ 35kg / m2 patients, the incidence of a large ...

【Hormones, immunity and inflammation.】 Macrophages need to be differentiated by monocytes. Hormones directly inhibit this process. Although the hormones have not killed the macrophages completely, their capacity are greatly reduced. However, the decline in immune capacity have a lot of benefits. For example, there will be less rejection after transplantation. Some autoimmune diseases can be treated by declining immune. The normal amount of hormones can maintain the normal function of the central nervous system. The abnormal amount hormones can lead to the insomnia and even the psychiatric disorders. Long-term use of hormone patients may have some depression or manic. The hormone have influence on water and salt metabolism, leading to water-sodium retention. Hormone can reduce the afferent glomerular arteriole resistance, making the renal plasma flow and glomerular filtration rate increase, promoting the excreting of water. At the same time, the hormone has a weak role in ...
