Gene mutations cause a rare kidney disease called #AlportSyndrome by damaging type IV collagen in the kidneys. This affects the filtering process, allowing blood and protein to leak into the urine. #WorldKidneyDay #AreYourKidneysOK #KidneyHealthMatters

When the body overheats, many metabolic systems start to shut down — and kidney function can be affected. In high heat, avoid NSAIDs like Ibuprofen, Advil, or Aleve as they can trigger acute kidney failure. #WorldKidneyDay #AreYourKidneysOK #KidneyHealthMatters

"Chronic" means ongoing and long-term, not necessarily severe. Many people live with mild chronic kidney disease (CKD) without symptoms or ever progressing to kidney failure. Early detection matters. #WorldKidneyDay #AreYourKidneysOK #KidneyHealthMatters

Kidney health becomes even more important as we age. Kidney function naturally declines over time, and people over 60 are at higher risk of developing kidney disease—often without noticeable symptoms. Early check-ups can help protect your kidneys as you grow older.

There are two types of renal agenesis: unilateral, where one kidney is missing, and bilateral, where both are absent. Since kidneys are essential to remove waste from the body, at least part of one is needed to survive. #WorldKidneyDay #AreYourKidneysOK #KidneyHealthMatters

Having a high number of antibodies against various tissue types can increase your risk of rejecting a kidney transplant. If these antibodies specifically target a potential donor's tissue, the likelihood of rejection becomes significantly higher. #WorldKidneyDay
