Uremia

Uremic actually refers to the poisoning caused by the body's inability to produce urine through the kidneys, and the waste and excess water produced by metabolism in the body are excreted from the body. Modern medicine believes that uremia is a series of complex syndromes caused by the disorder of the internal biochemical process after the loss of renal function. Rather than an independent disease, it is called renal failure syndrome or renal failure for short. This term was coined by PIORRY and HERITER after describing renal failure in 1840. Causes of uremia include: chronic glomerulonephritis, chronic pyelonephritis, renal tuberculosis, renal arteriosclerosis, urinary tract stones, prostatic hypertrophy, bladder cancer, lupus erythematosus, diabetes, etc.
