The damage to glomerular artery and nephrons due to hypertension is focal, but kidney function decline in the late term is progressive. On one hand, high blood pressure can impair kidneys, and kidney damage aggravates hypertension; they two form a vicious circle, and cause pathological changes in normal small artery and nephrons. On the other hand, hypertension induced nephrons injury can cause compensatory high perfusion and high filtration in remaining normal nephrons.
High blood pressure, or hypertension, occurs when the pressure of your blood against the walls of your blood vessels increases. If uncontrolled, or poorly controlled, high blood pressure can be a leading cause of heart attacks, strokes and chronic kidney disease. Also, chronic kidney disease can cause high blood pressure. Other conditions that affect the kidneys are: 1  Glomerulonephritis, a group of diseases that cause inflammation and damage to the kidney's filtering units. 2  Inherited diseases, such as polycystic kidney disease, which causes large cysts to form in the kidneys and damage the surrounding tissue.
