Chronic renal failure:
Causes and incidence
(Professional Guide to Diseases (Eighth Edition))
Diabetes and hypertension are the primary causes of chronic renal failure, accounting for two-thirds of cases. Other causes of chronic renal failure include:
❑ chronic glomerular disease such as glomerulonephritis
❑ chronic infections, such as chronic pyelonephritis or tuberculosis
❑ congenital anomalies such as polycystic kidneys
❑ vascular diseases such as renal nephrosclerosis
❑ obstructive processes such as calculi
❑ collagen diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus
❑ nephrotoxic agents such as long-term aminoglycoside therapy.
These conditions gradually destroy the nephrons and eventually cause irreversible renal failure. Similarly, acute renal failure that fails to respond to treatment becomes chronic renal failure.
This syndrome may progress through the following stages:
❑ reduced renal reserve (creatinine clearance glomerular filtration rate [GFR] is 40 to 70 ml/minute)
❑ renal insufficiency (GFR 20 to 40 ml/ minute)
❑ renal failure (GFR 10 to 20 ml/minute)
❑ end-stage renal disease (GFR less than 10 ml/minute).
Chronic renal failure and end-stage renal disease affect about 2 out of 1,000 people in the United States.

About prevalence and incidence statistics:
The term 'prevalence' of End-stage renal disease usually refers to the estimated population
of people who are managing End-stage renal disease at any given time.
The term 'incidence' of End-stage renal disease refers to the annual diagnosis rate,
or the number of new cases of End-stage renal disease diagnosed each year.
Hence, these two statistics types can differ:
a short-lived disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence,
but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence.
