In that year he was appointed physician at the Allerheiligen Hospital , Breslau in 1868, chief physician at the municipal poorhouse in 1869, privatdocent in 1874, professor in G ttingen University which chair he still held in 1903 and in 1877, director of the university hospital and dispensary. Ebstein s specialties were malassimilation and defective nutrition, in the treatment of which he introduced several new methods. He eliminated the carbohydrates from the food almost entirely, but allowed fat to be taken with adequate protein in nutrition protein his theory was that fat contains nutritive matter equivalent to two and a half times that of carbohydrates.

Phosphate nephropathy consists of damage to the kidney s caused by the formation of phosphate crystals within the renal tubules, damaging the nephron , and can cause acute renal failure . Phosphate nephropaty frequently occurs following the ingestion of oral sodium phosphate laxatives such as C.B. Fleet s Phospho soda and Salix s Visocol taken for bowel preparation bowel cleansing prior to a colonoscopy . The risk of this complication is increased with age, dehydration , or in the presence of hypertension or if the patient is taking an ACE inhibitor or angiotensin receptor blocker . Other agents used for bowel preparation e.g. magnesium citrate or PEG 3350 & electrolyte based purgatives such as Colyte or Golytely do not carry this risk. According to the Food and Drug Administration United States U.S. Food and Drug Administration FDA , Acute phosphate nephropathy is a form of acute kidney injury that is associated with deposits of calcium phosphate crystals in the renal tubules that may result in permanent renal function impairment. Acute phosphate nephropathy is a rare, serious adverse event that has been associated with the use of OSPs. The occurrence of these events was previously described in an Information for Healthcare Professionals sheet and an FDA Science Paper issued in May 2006. Additional cases of acute phosphate nephropathy have been reported to FDA and described in the literature since these were issued. ref http www.fda.gov Drugs DrugSafety PostmarketDrugSafetyInformationforPatientsandProviders ucm103354.htm ref When a kidney damaged by phosphate nephropathy is biopsied, the pathological findings are typical of nephrocalcinosis diffuse tubular injury with calcium phosphate crystal deposition.

Acute uric acid nephropathy AUAN , also acute urate nephropathy is a rapidly worsening decreasing kidney function renal insufficiency that is caused by high levels of uric acid in the urine hyperuricosuria . Causes Acute uric acid nephropathy is usually seen as part of the acute tumour lysis syndrome in patients undergoing chemotherapy or radiation therapy for the treatment of malignancies with rapid cell turnover, such as leukemia and lymphoma . It may also occur in these patients before treatment is begun, due to spontaneous tumor cell lysis high incidence in Burkitt s lymphoma . Acute uric acid nephropathy can also be caused by an acute attack of gout . Pathophysiology Acute uric acid nephropathy is caused by deposition of uric acid crystals within the kidney interstitium and tubules, leading to partial or complete obstruction of collecting ducts, renal pelvis, or ureter. This obstruction is usually bilateral, and patients follow the clinical course of acute renal failure . Diagnosis The picture of acute renal failure is observed decreased urine production and rapidly rising serum creatinine levels. Acute uric acid nephropathy is differentiated from other forms of acute renal failure by the finding of a urine uric acid creatinine ratio 1 in a random urine sample. Prevention Patients at risk for acute uric acid nephropathy can be given allopurinol or rasburicase prior to treatment with cytotoxic drugs. Treatment Treatment is focused on preventing deposition of uric acid within the urinary system by increasing urine volume with potent diuretics such as furosemide . Raising the urinary pH to a level higher than 7 alkalinization is often difficult to attain, although sodium bicarbonate and or acetazolamide are sometimes used in an attempt to increase uric acid solubility ...

Orphan date March 2009 Sickle cell nephropathy is a type of nephropathy associated with sickle cell disease , it causes renal complications as a result of sickling of red blood cells in the microvasculature . The hypertonic and relatively Hypoxia medical hypoxic environment of the renal medulla , coupled with the slow blood flow in the vasa recta , favors sickling of red blood cells, with resultant local infarction papillary necrosis . Functional renal tubules tubule defects in patients with sickle cell disease are likely the result of partial ischemic injury to the renal tubules . Also the sickle cell disease in young patients is characterized by renal hyperperfusion , glomerular hypertrophy , and hyperfiltration . Many of these individuals eventually develop a glomerulopathy leading to glomerular proteinuria present in as many as 30 and, in some, the nephrotic syndrome . Co inheritance of Deletion genetics microdeletions in the globin gene thalassemia appear to protect against the development of nephropathy and are associated with lower mean arterial pressure and less proteinuria . Mild azotemia and hyperuricemia can also develop. Advanced renal failure and uremia occur in 10 of cases. Pathologic examination reveals the typical lesion of hyperfiltration nephropathy namely, focal segmental glomerular sclerosis . This finding has led to the suggestion that anemia induced hyperfiltration in childhood is the principal cause of the adult glomerulopathy. Nephron loss secondary to ischemic injury also contributes to the development of azotemia in these patients. In addition to the glomerulopathy described above, renal complications of sickle cell disease include Cerebral cortex cortical infarcts leading to loss of function, persistent hematuria , and perinephric hematomas .

The first official publication was made by the Bulgarian nephrologist Dr.Yoto Tanchev and his team in 1956 in the Bulgarian Journal Savremenna Medizina ,9, 1956, a priority generally acknowledged by the international nephrological community. Their study was based on a wide screening of inhabitants of the villages around the town of Vratsa, Bulgaria. Their contribution to the study of this strange endemic disease of the kidneys consisted in the description of symptoms which were not typical for the common chronic nephritis, i.e. incidence only in adults no children affected , lack of high blood pressure, xanthochromia of palms and soles Tanchev s sign , early anemia of hypochromous type, lack of proteinuria and slowly progression of the kidney failure. Tanchev et al. suggested this condition to be a disease sui generis. Their hypothesis for the etiology was related to a possible intoxication with heavy metals, because the villages affected were supplied with water coming from the nearby karst type Vratsa Mountain.
