Kidneys: Anatomy, function and internal structure
The kidneys have their anterior and posterior surfaces. The anterior surface faces towards the anterior abdominal wall, whereas the posterior surface is facing the posterior abdominal wall.These surfaces are separated by the edges of the kidney, which are the major convexity laterally, and minor concavity medially. The center of the minor concavity is marked as the hilum of the kidney where ...

The Anatomy & Physiology of the Kidneys
6 Fluid and Electrolyte Balance Blood composition depends on three major factors: Diet, cellular metabolism, and urine output. The kidneys have 4 major functions: Excretion of nitrogenous wastes Water balance Electrolyte balance Maintain blood pH Water occupies three main locations in the body: intracellular fluid, extracellular fluid, and ...
Kidney: Function and Anatomy, Diagram, Conditions, and Health Tips
The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs in the renal system. They help the body pass waste as urine. They also help filter blood before sending it back to the heart. The kidneys perform many ...
Kidneys: Anatomy, Location, and Function
Function. The main purpose of the kidneys is to filter blood and maintain fluid and electrolyte balance in the body. Together, your kidneys filter your body's entire blood volume about 300 times per day. Electrolytes and solutes like sodium and potassium are regulated in the kidneys and transported to different parts of the body.
Structure and Function of the Kidney
Presentation Transcript. Structure and Function of the Kidney • The functional unit of the kidney is the nephron • The major functions of the kidney are to maintain extracellular fluids, to eliminate wastes resulting from normal metabolism, and to excrete xenobiotics and their metabolites • Mammalian kidneys have 10,000-1,000,000 nephrons ...
Kidney function and anatomy (video)
Kidneys are important organs that filter our blood and produce urine to maintain balance (homeostasis) in our body. Blood enters the kidneys through renal arteries and exits through renal veins. The nephron, the smallest functional unit of the kidney, handles filtration and collection. This process helps regulate pH, blood pressure, and waste ...
7 Things to Know About Kidney Function
The kidneys are powerful chemical factories that perform the following functions: remove waste products from the body. remove drugs from the body. balance the body's fluids. release hormones that regulate blood pressure. produce an active form of vitamin D that promotes strong, healthy bones.
Urinary System Presentation
The kidneys regulate the amount of water, salts and other substances in the blood.; The kidneys are fist-sized, bean shaped structures that remove nitrogenous wastes (urine) and excess salts from the blood. The ureters are tubes that carry urine from the pelvis of the kidneys to the urinary bladder.; The urinary bladder temporarily stores urine until it is released from the body.
Kidney: Structure, Function and Related Diseases
Diseases related to Kidneys. 1. Uremia. In uremia, the kidneys are damaged, and there is a buildup of urea and other toxins in the blood, which is fatal and can cause kidney failure. Patients may experience fatigue, itching, muscle twitching, and loss of mental concentration. The urea can be removed by the process of hemodialysis.

General practitioners' assessment and management of chronic kidney
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an overarching diagnosis that defines disease as kidney function below an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 60 mL/min/1.73m 2, or structural damage to the kidneys indicated by haematuria or albuminuria for more than 3 months [].Its reported prevalence is up to 10% of the population [].It has a strong association with older age, the prevalence of CKD ...

The association of longitudinal RA disease activity with long-term kidney function has remained uncertain. Method We analysed a multicentre prospective RA registry in the USA from 2001 to 2022. The exposure was updated time-averaged Clinical Disease Activity Index (TA-CDAI) categories from study ...
