Hypertension (High Blood Pressure) is usually seen in the senior citizens in
the past. However, more and more young people are attacked by Hypertension
recently. High blood pressure can be caused by various reasons, primary or
secondary, and a lot of clinical researches have shown that high blood pressure
is a very common and bothering complication secondary to PKD (Polycystic Kidney Disease). The elevation of blood pressure in patients with PKD means that kidney
function has been damaged from stage 2 to stage 3 of Chronic Kidney Disease.
High blood pressure will aggravate kidney function if no proper treatment is
received to control it. That is to say, high blood pressure and the condition of
PKD (Polycystic Kidney Disease) are closely related with each other. Once anyone
of them is out of control, horrible consequences can be resulted in.
How PKD (Polycystic Kidney Disease) Triggers High Blood Pressure
PKD (Polycystic Kidney Disease) is a condition where numerous cysts are found
in the kidneys, which can be divided into dominant and recessive ones. Fetus and
baby are more vulnerable to be attacked by the latter one, which can be rare to
be seen clinically. However, the dominant one can be very common in patients who
are over 50 years old.
The continuous enlargement of cysts in the kidneys will cause pressure on the
renal parenchyma, which will lead to the lack of blood supply in the kidneys. As
a result, RAAS ( rennin-angiotensin- aldosterone system), a system of adjusting
the blood pressure, will secrete and synthesize rennin. The Rennin can promote
the hydrolysis of proangiotensin in the plasma. ACE
(angiotensin-converting-enzyme) will decompose hydrolysate into angiotensionII,
which can lead to the micro-arteries contract in human body and in turn elevate
the blood pressure.
Additionally, because of ACE, angiotensin will be hydrolyzed into antiogensin
III, which will activate the aldosterone to increase the reabsorption of Na+ and
water by tubular and concentrated pipe. As a result, the blood volume will be
increased and cause further blood pressure. If this pressure caused by the cysts
can not be adjusted, this high blood pressure secondary to Polycystic Kidney
Disease will not disappear.
High blood pressure can be treated by controlling PKD (Polycystic Kidney
Disease)
From the above introduction, you might be clear that high blood pressure
secondary to PKD (Polycystic Kidney Disease) is caused by the shortness of blood
supply. So, the key point to treat high blood pressure secondary to PKD is to
shrink the cysts. Meanwhile, the blood and nutrition supply is also necessary.
Thousands of clinical cases have proved that Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy
is effective in shrinking these cysts. When the bigger cysts are reduced and the
smaller ones are controlled, they high blood pressure secondary to PKD can be
treated naturally. You do not have to rely on those tablets to bring down the
blood pressure any more.
