Chronic kidney disease is a progressive, irreversible decline in renal function in which the body’s ability to maintain metabolic and fluid
and electrolyte balance fails, resulting in uremia or azotemia. It is not a single disease and associated with different medical conditions such as
diabetes, hypertension and anemia; Even though it is caused by primary kidney disease (e.g., glomerular diseases, tubulointerstitial diseases,
obstruction, and polycystic kidney disease). Early detection, prevention, evaluation, and management of chronic kidney disease and antecedent
conditions could prevent complications of decreased kidney function, slow the progression of kidney disease to kidney failure, and reduce
cardiovascular disease risk.
Most patients with chronic kidney disease will die of events related to cardiovascular disease before end-stage renal disease develops.
Different studies used as evidence that mild to moderate degrees of renal impairment are associated with increased cardiovascular risk.
Therefore; an important focus of care for patients with chronic kidney disease includes management of cardiovascular risk factors and other
complications and life style modification. There is no cure for kidney disease, but it may be possible to discontinue its progress or at least slow
down the progress. At last dialysis and transplant are the most frequent treatment methods for end stage renal failure. But these treatment
methods are not affordable by most of the population. This makes the development of new therapeutic options for treating chronic kidney
disease increasingly important.
