Mesangial Proliferative Glomerular Nephritis is a disease that affects the glomeruli in the kidneys. Most instances of MPGN are caused by other diseases or disorders, including autoimmune diseases, chronic infections, monoclonal immunoglobulin deposition diseases, and hereditary diseases. The idiopathic type of MPGN is seen more commonly in persons aged 8-30. There is a new treatment in our hospital, which is good news for MPGN patients. It is called Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy. Here I would like to give you a brief introduction of Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy.
What is Micro-Chinese Medicine?
You may have heard of Chinese medicine (Chinese herbs) before. Here only a simple different that is 'Micro-' has been added, but the means of it have changed greatly. Let me introduce for you in detail.
How dose Micro-Chinese Medicine work in the body?
The root pathological change of kidney disease lies in the fibrosis of renal functional cells. Only when the fibrosis is blocked, can deterioration of kidney disease be stopped. Study shows that fibrosis results from the insufficiency of blood and oxygen in the kidneys. Rightly, Micro-Chinese Medicine has good curative effect to improve the state of lacking blood and oxygen. Specifically speaking, Micro-Chinese Medicine can dilate blood vessels and decrease blood coagulation, thus improving blood circulation of kidneys. In addition, it can also decrease inflammatory reaction and degrade extracellular matrixes (ECM) both of which contribute to fibrosis of renal functional cells. In this way, Micro-Chinese Medicine can effectively prevent fibrosis and thereby stop kidney disease from progressing.
