Abstract

Urea and iron is the strong prediction for the occurrence of both for renal diseases and its severity and complication. Iron is important predictor for understanding to the severity in renal diseases and its complication. The kidney has a bean-shaped structure; each kidney has a convex and concave surface. The concave surface, the renal hilum, is the point at which the renal artery enters the organ, and the renal vein and ureter leave. The amount of urea nitrogen released and the amount reincorporated into albumin has been measured in healthy and uremic individuals on both normal and low-protein diets. The importance of iron in renal injury is derived from the ease with which iron is reversibly oxidized or reduced, enabling it to participate in the production of free radicals. Experimental evidence for the role of oxidants and iron in progressive renal disease falls into two broad categories. Oxidants derived either from leukocytes in proliferate glomerulonephritis or from resident glomerular cells in nonproliferative glomerulonephritis have been shown to have several biological effects relevant to chronic kidney disease. This study was aimed to study the blood serum  iron, urea in the subjects from Rewa district, to see if any correlation exists between iron and other parameters and to evaluate the risk factors for other complicated diseases.
