Everything you need to know about renal pain
By James Myhre and Dennis Sifris, MD
Kidney pain, also known as renal pain, is caused by the injury, impairment, or infection of the kidneys. The kidneys are a pair of bean-shaped organs situated on either side of the spine that are responsible for filtering blood and maintaining the correct balance of fluids and electrolytes in the body. The pain may be described as dull and throbbing or sharp and severe depending on the underlying cause. While kidney pain is sometimes mistaken for back pain, the sensation is far deeper and located higher on the upper back, just below the ribs.
Kidney pain can be classified as unilateral if one kidney is affected or bilateral if both kidneys are affected. This may provide a clue as to whether the problem is intrinsic (occurring within the kidneys), prerenal (related to an organ above the kidneys), or postrenal (related to obstruction or disorder below the kidneys).
Illustration by Alexandra Gordon, Verywell
The causes of kidney pain are extensive and can be broadly characterized as either an infection, trauma, obstruction, or growth.
A renal infection, also known as pyelonephritis, is typically caused by bacteria and can affect one or both kidneys. Acute pyelonephritis is a type that strikes suddenly and severely, while milder, recurrent cases are referred to as chronic pyelonephritis. Pyelonephritis is usually caused by an infection that has spread from the lower urinary tract, including the ureters, bladder, or urethra.
Acute pyelonephritis can often develop over the span of two days. Symptoms include:
Unilateral or bilateral kidney pain, often blunt and intense, felt in the flank (back and side), abdomen, or groin
High fever (greater than 102 Fahrenheit)
Body chills
Painful or burning urination (dysuria)
Cloudy or fishy-smelling urine
A frequent need to urinate (urinary urgency)
Chronic pyelonephritis is experienced less intensely, and, in some cases, there may be no symptoms. If symptoms do develop, they may include a dull ache in the flank accompanied by malaise and a low-grade fever.
Kidney Trauma
Renal trauma is caused by either a blunt-force impact or a penetrating wound that lacerates one or both kidneys. Because of the kidneys' vulnerable position in the abdomen, injuries like these are not uncommon. In fact, as many as 10 percent of abdominal injuries will sustain damage to the kidneys. Vehicle accidents, physical assaults, and severe falls account for the majority of renal traumas.
The challenge with these injuries is that they are not always overtly symptomatic. While some may present with pain, the pain may be dull rather than specific, and there may or may not be any signs of bruising or physical injury. With that being said, touching the kidney area will usually cause pain.
Other characteristic symptoms may include fever, hematuria, an inability to urinate (urinary retention), decreased alertness, rapid heart rate (tachycardia), and abdominal pain and swelling. Symptoms like these warrant emergency treatment.
Renal Obstruction
Renal obstruction can occur in the kidneys or as the result of urinary blockage downstream. Those that are intrinsic or affect the ureters may cause unilateral or bilateral pain. A blockage downstream in the bladder or urethra tends to impact both kidneys.
Also known as obstructive uropathy , the blockage may be caused by any number of conditions, including:
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate)
Long-term catheterization
Renal vein thrombosis (a blood clot in the kidney)
Neurogenic bladder (nerve-related bladder weakness)
Bladder, cervical, colorectal, prostate, or uterine cancer
Vesicoureteral reflux (a congenital disorder in which the urine backflows into the kidneys)
When an obstruction occurs for whatever reason, the kidneys will begin to swell, a condition referred to as hydronephrosis. Symptoms include pain in the flank, groin, or abdomen alongside fever, dysuria, urinary urgency, and nausea.
The symptoms can vary by the location and severity of the obstruction. Kidney stones often cause the most pain, typically centered in the flank and radiating to the abdomen and groin in waves. Others are less specific but can worsen if the blockage is left untreated, leading to fever, sweating, chills, vomiting, hematuria, and diminished urine output.
Renal Tumors or Cysts
Renal tumors or cysts do not typically cause pain unless the growth is advanced or the disbursement is extensive. The three most common growth abnormalities include:
Renal adenoma: A type of benign tumor that can grow to a substantial size
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC): A type of cancer that usually begins in the tubules of the kidneys
Polycystic kidney disease (PKD): An inherited disorder in which benign, fluid-filled cysts proliferate throughout the kidneys
By and large, renal tumors, whether benign or cancerous, do not cause pain until their size compromises the architecture of the kidney. It is at this stage that the pain will usually be persistent, aching, and likely to worsen over time. The pain would most often be unilateral and accompanied by hematuria, either visible (gross hematuria) or invisible (microscopic hematuria).
If cancer is involved, persistent malaise and unexplained weight loss are tell-tale signs suggestive of an advanced malignancy.
PKD may also be symptom-free until such time as the formation of cysts causes structural damage to the kidney. In addition to flank pain, usually bilateral, PKD may cause progressively worsening symptoms, including headaches, high blood pressure, hematuria, abdominal pain and swelling, recurrent kidney stones, recurrent UTIs, and renal failure.
As opposed to many of the other renal conditions, PKD is associated with excessive urination (polyuria) rather than impaired urination. The most common form of PKD, known as autosomal dominant PKD, manifests with symptoms when patients are in their 30s and 40s. Around 10 percent will advance to renal failure.
What Are the Signs and Symptoms of Kidney Cancer?
People will often assume that sudden flank pain is caused by a pulled muscle or overexertion, and, in many cases, it will be.
If the pain persists, worsens, or is accompanied by urinary symptoms or signs of infections, you should see your doctor as soon as possible. This is especially true if you are experiencing high fever, chills, vomiting, or the inability to urinate.
Even if a kidney infection is mild, it can sometimes progress and lead to bacteremia if left untreated. This is a condition in which a local bacterial infection "spills over" over into the bloodstream, causing systemic and potentially life-threatening symptoms, including irregular body temperatures, disruptions in breathing, a severe drop in blood pressure, and shock. Given that acute pyelonephritis can strike in as little as two days, a rapid response is essential.
The same applies if you experience a dull but persistent pain alongside uncommon symptoms such as painful urination, chronic fatigue, or unexplained weight loss. None of these should be considered normal, and you shouldn't wait until there is visible blood in urine to seek care.
If you are pregnant, don't assume that a persistent back pain is pregnancy-related. Be cognizant if there is a dull ache across your lower back or along the sides of your back between the ribs and hips. If accompanied by symptoms of infection or changes in urination, call your doctor immediately. This is especially true if you are suddenly unable to urinate. This may be a sign of an obstruction in need of urgent care.
When Should You See a Kidney Doctor?
Only a medical evaluation can confirm a kidney condition or pinpoint the cause of a kidney pain. There are no reliable self-exams or tests to do at home. The diagnostic tools include lab and urine tests to evaluate your body chemistry and imaging tests to identify and characterize the nature of the disease.
Labs and Tests
A urinalysis is central to the diagnosis of any renal disorder. A complete urinalysis is performed by a lab to assess the chemical composition of your urine and to find any evidence of kidney dysfunction, including excessive protein, albumin, or red blood cells. Abnormal findings will suggest a kidney problem. Normal findings, by contrast, can usually rule out the kidneys as the cause.
Blood tests will also be used to evaluate your kidney function. These include:
Serum creatinine (SCr), which measures the level of a substance called creatinine that the body produces and excretes in urine at a regular rate
Glomerular filtration rate (GFR), which uses the SCr to calculate how much blood is being filtered by the kidneys
Blood urea nitrogen (BUN), which measures the level of a compound called urea that is also produced and excreted in urine at a constant rate
Any abnormalities in the excretion would indicate that the kidneys are not working as they should.
If an infection is suspected, a blood test known as erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) may be used to check for inflammation , while a urine culture can help isolate and identify specific bacterial or fungal infections.
Finally, a complete blood count (CBC) and liver function test (LFT) can offer further insights as to whether the dysfunction is caused by an associated disease (such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or cirrhosis) or if changes in the blood chemistry are consistent with cancer.  (There are no blood or urine tests that detect renal cancer).
How to Find out What Your Renal Test Results Really Mean
Imaging Tests
Imaging tests are used as a means to indirectly visualize the kidneys and adjacent structures. They can identify irregularities in the shape or structure of the kidneys, identify cysts and solid tumors, or pinpoint the location of a bleed or obstruction.
Among the three tools commonly used for this:
Ultrasounds use sound waves to create high-contrast images of internal organs. It is often the first test used as it is fast, portable, and does not expose you to ionizing radiation. Ultrasounds are particularly useful in differentiating cysts from solid tumors.
Computed tomography (CT) uses a series of X-rays to create a cross-sectional image of your kidneys. The test is ideal for identifying lesions, abscesses, stones, tumors, and other abnormalities that an ultrasound or X-ray might miss. While radiation is kept to a minimum, it may still be 200 times that of standard chest X-ray.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses a magnetic field and radio waves to visualize the kidneys, providing finer details than a CT or ultrasound. While an MRI doesn't expose you to ionizing radiation, a radioactive contrast agent may be needed to visualize certain tissues.
If imaging tests are unable to provide a clear image of an obstruction or disorder of the lower urinary tract, the doctor may recommend a procedure known as cystoscopy. This involves the insertion of a flexible fiberoptic scope into the urethra to view the bladder and is commonly used to help diagnose bladder stones, cystitis, strictures, and cancer.
Cystoscopy is performed under local anesthesia and may cause pain and mild bleeding. Infection is also possible.
If cancer is suspected, a biopsy may be performed to obtain a sample of cells from suspicious growth. It can be performed with a fine needle aspiration (FNA), in which a narrow needle is inserted into a tumor with the aid of an ultrasound , or a core needle biopsy (CNB), which utilizes a thicker, hollow-core needle. Both are nearly equal in their ability to correctly diagnose renal cancer.
Differential Diagnoses
People will often be surprised at how high up the kidneys are in the back. In many cases, a persistent pain will be incorrectly attributed to the kidneys when it is, in fact, muscle or skeletal problem. To this end, doctors will often need to explore other causes of "kidney pain" if urinalysis and other tests do not suggest a renal disorder.
Examples include:
A fracture of the 11th or 12th rib, which can mimic a renal injury
An upper thoracic or lumbar spine injury, in which spinal nerve pain can radiate to the flank (known as referred pain)
Neuropathic flank pain caused by shingles (herpes zoster)
Pleuritis, inflammation of the pleura (lining of the lungs)
A retroperitoneal abscess, a serious pus-filled infection situated between the anterior abdominal wall and the peritoneum (lining of the abdominal cavity)
While some people assume that kidney pain is a sign of kidney failure, it rarely is. Whether you have chronic kidney disease (CKD) or acute renal failure (ARF), you are more likely to feel pain in the joints and muscles (due to the build-up of toxins and depletion of electrolytes) than in the kidneys.
The treatment of kidney pain is as varied as the causes themselves. Severe disorders typically require the care of a kidney specialist known as a nephrologist or a urinary tract specialist known as a urologist.
Most kidney infections are bacterial and readily treated with broad-spectrum antibiotics. Fungal and viral infections are most commonly seen in people with compromised immune systems, including organ transplant recipients and people with advanced HIV.
A urine culture can help isolate the bacterial strain so that the most appropriate antibiotic is chosen. The most commonly prescribed antibiotics include ampicillin, co-trimoxazole, ciprofloxacin, and levofloxacin. Severe cases may require intravenous rather than oral antibiotics. Resistant bacterial strains may require combination antibiotic therapy or more potent antibiotics like carbapenem.
During treatment, you'll need to drink plenty of water to promote urination and help flush the upper and lower urinary tract.
Treatment of a renal trauma is directed by the grading of the injury as follows:
Grade 1 for a renal contusion (bruised kidney) or a non-expanding hematoma (blood clot)
Grade 2 for a laceration of less than 1 centimeter
Grade 3 for a laceration greater than 1 centimeter
Grade 4 for a laceration greater than 1 centimeter that causes internal bleeding
Grade 5 for a detached or shattered kidney or one in which the renal artery is blocked
Low-grade injuries can often be treated with extended bed rest. More severe events may require surgical repair, including the placement of renal stents to open obstructed vessels. Selective embolism, in which a chemical agent or metallic coil is used to block a blood vessel, may help control bleeding.
In the worst-case scenario, a surgical procedure known as nephrectomy may be needed to remove one or, less commonly, both kidneys. While you can function normally with just one kidney, the removal of both would require you to be placed on dialysis until an organ donor can be found.
Treatment is primarily focused on relieving the source of the obstruction. This may involve antibiotics to resolve an infection, nephrostomy (the drainage of urine with a urethral catheter), or surgery if a stone cannot be passed on its own.
Severe hydronephrosis may require percutaneous nephrostomy, a procedure in which a tube is inserted through your back to directly drain the kidneys. A ureter stent may also be placed during cystoscopy to open a blocked ureter.
Additional treatments may be needed to address the underlying cause.
Depending on the findings, treatment may involve selective embolism to reduce the size of a tumor (essential "starving" the tumor of the blood needed for growth) or nephrectomy to remove part or all of the affected kidney. Benign tumors are often treated in the same way as cancerous ones if they obstruct vessels or tubules inside of the kidney.
Cancer therapy is directed by the stage of the malignancy which is based on the size of the tumor, the number of nearby lymph nodes affected, and whether the tumor has metastasized (spread). Treatment options include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, and newer-generation targeted therapy.
What Tests Are Done to Find Kidney Cancer?
There are no treatments for PKD. Treatment would instead be focused on the avoidance of complications (including high blood pressure, renal infection, kidney failure, and brain aneurysm) in tandem with routine disease monitoring.
The development of kidney pain isn't something you should ignore. While over-the-counter painkillers like Advil (ibuprofen) or Tylenol (acetaminophen) may provide short-term relief, they are unable to treat the underlying cause, which in some cases may be serious and otherwise asymptomatic.
The same applies to hydration. While drinking plenty of water or cranberry juice may help ease a mild urinary tract infection, it is not considered curative. If in doubt as to whether you need a doctor, simply call your doctor's office or check if your health insurance company offers free telemedicine consultations.
On the other hand, if you experience sudden, severe kidney pain—whether or not there is blood, fever, nausea, or any other symptom—you need to seek emergency care without exception.

Samsung Mass Producing 6Gb LPDDR3 Mobile DRAM
By Kevin Parrish
South Korea-based Samsung Electronics announced on Wednesday that it is now using 20 nm process technology to mass produce 6 Gb LPDDR3 mobile DRAM. The announcement follows Samsung's move to use 20 nm processing technology on 4 Gb DDR3 for PCs back in March (opens in new tab), which was an industry first.
"Our new 20 nm 6 Gb LPDDR3 DRAM provides the most advanced mobile memory solution for the rapidly expanding high-performance mobile DRAM market," said Jeeho Baek, vice president, memory marketing, Samsung Electronics.
According to the company, four of these 6 Gb LPDDR3 dies can be crammed into a single 3 GB package (24 Gb) that's now 20 percent smaller and uses 10 percent less energy than current 3 GB memory packed with 25 nm 6 Gb LPDDR3 chips.
Samsung states that the new 20 nm 6 Gb chip has a per-pin data transfer rate of up to 2,133 Mbps. The company also reports that its own productivity has improved more than 30 percent when compared to using the older 25 nm processing technology.
"We are working closely with our global customers to offer next-generation mobile memory solutions that can be applied to a more extensive range of markets ranging from the premium to standard segments," Baek added.
Samsung indicated that it plans to use the 20 nm process technology in the future to strengthen its product portfolio and stay ahead in the high-density mobile DRAM market.

Should the title have 6GB (capital B) instead of 6Gb?
6Gb (lower case b) makes me think about a data rate like 6Gb/s transfer speed, not a capacity. Not to mention, Gigabyte is GB not Gb (Gigabit).
Not trying to be a nitpick, this actually confused me when I started reading.

No its Gb. Gigabit instead of Gigabyte. A gigabyte is eight times larger than a gigabit, hence why 4 of these chips which have 6Gb each, adds up to 24Gb, or in other words 3GB of storage.
Its the same Gb used in speed, just one is larger than the other. In terms of RAM chips Gb is the commonly used term
erendofe
little Gb is GIGA-bits and GB is gigabytes a byte is what ever the bus with is the CPU is IE> a 32 bit CPU uses 32 bit bytes, 64 bit cut is 64 bit bytes etc.

Not quite. There isn't always an "s" on the end. It can be read either way, sort of like mm and cm, or written either way but the "s" is not a constant. It is not so uncommon to see "1 GB" and "1 Gb" also which would indicate single measurements and therefore not be read or written out with the "s" on the end.
A byte is not the bus inside of the CPU. A byte is 8-bits. It goes back to binary coding. Binary is written in three groups of eight digits being either 0 or 1. Each digit either 0 or 1 consumes 1 bit to store the information.So a full line in binary, 00000000.00000000.00000000 would require 24 bits to store. Or just 3 bytes.
In computers connections, typically called a "bus" the "bit" used is different. For example, each memory channel to the CPU has a 64-bit connection to the CPU. What this is directly referring to is the existence of 64 wire connections connecting them. The reason for these connections often being called "bits" is owing to the ability of them each to be transferring a single bit of data at the same time. Of course that is increased by clock speed, but in basic that is why they are called bits.
http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/Everything-You-Need-to-Know-About-the-Dual-Triple-and-Quad-Channel-Memory-Architectures/133/1
actually a byte at the hardware level as I understood it was determined by a cpu's physical data bus width. the address bus dictates the amount of memory the CPU can actually access. the byte grouping you illustrated as I understand is represented at the software level and is hardware androgynous. itel its self requires a 64 bit cpu bus to enable some of its coding features we not take for granted because the instructions are 64 bits long internally
Your understanding is flawed.
A byte is eight bits. It is in hardware in RAM and RAM like storage such as cache. It is also present in hard drives.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte
http://searchstorage.techtarget.com/definition/byte
http://programmers.stackexchange.com/questions/120126/what-is-the-history-of-why-bytes-are-eight-bits
https://web.stanford.edu/class/cs101/hardware-1.html
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive#Calculation
In a CPU there is the address register that relates directly to how much RAM the CPU is able to see, however this is also measured to be 64-bits, not bytes. This also is not a type of bus, this is an address register which means its more of a listing of the information present or a mapping and has no affect on transfer speed, all computer buses have a direct impact on transfer speed.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/64-bit_computing
As for the last bit again assuming you are referring to bytes being androgynous to storage devices, the amount of storage on a HDD or how much the PC can see has no connection with the CPU being 32-bit or 64-bit. If the motherboard supports a 4TB hard disk, it will see 4TB with a 32-bit or 64-bit CPU or OS installed.
no a byte is not necessarily 8 bits it is dictated by the cpu's data bus x86 cpu's or example are 64 bits wide the can toggle between 64 bit and dual 32 bit code execution. thus each instruction is either written in 64 or 32 bits. each instruction MUST at least 1 byte. and breaking the instruction into groups of 8 bits would cause cohesion loss because the CPU operates on all 32 bits simultaneously. reaking the instruction into 8 bit groups could change it from a load command for example to a multiply command, or even cause a execution halt. also the data buss IS NOT the address bus they are separate. data registers do not dictate maximum RAM the track memory addressed being accessed the physical number of address lines (wires) dictate mx ram. registers in them selves are actually memory cells inside the cpu. for those interested I recommend reading "upgrading and repairing PC's by Scott Muller. he;s an engineer actually and his work is used for foundation of many college level computes technician courses. in fach it's the meat of the A+ exam
Again, no it isn't. All the information is there. Your understanding is flawed, you don't know what a byte is. Nor does it seem you really understand what an address bus is, why it exists, and are confused on the working of the CPU in several ways. I would highly suggest you read more before attempting to help anyone or answer any questions, otherwise you will give people wrong information and negatively impact other people trying to understand these systems.
I suggest you start with the first link I posted above as it goes over multi-channel configurations and specifically will tell you that the number of channels does not determine the max memory size the CPU can recognize.


We accompany you worldwide before and during the construction phase to ensure the proper construction of your seismic mass according to our mutual specifications. The employees of CFM Schiller are cooperating closely with the construction firm. We take care of the timely execution of a project that is extraordinary to most construction firms.
The pit and the seismic mass are constructed by a local construction firm according to the formwork and reinforcement drawings from CFM Schiller.
Our special anchorage system is integrated into the existing reinforcement by experienced CFM Mechanics. Only after thorough measurement and approval, concrete is poured into the formwork.
Curing time for the concrete foundation is approx. 28 days. Not till then, our employees install special anchors and position the clamping plate on the seismic mass. After being adjusted, the clamping plate is grouted with special non-shrink cement grout.
At the end of the construction process, the air springs for the vibration isolation are installed. Further necessary assembly works and electrical installations are also carried out by CFM Schiller. As the last step, the vibration isolation system is commissioned.

Hackers send silent commands to speech recognition systems with ultrasound
Devin Coldewey	@techcrunch / 2 years
Security researchers in China have invented a clever way of activating voice recognition systems without speaking a word. By using high frequencies inaudible to humans but which register on electronic microphones, they were able to issue commands to every major "intelligent assistant" that were silent to every listener but the target device.
The team from Zhejiang University calls their technique DolphinAttack (PDF), after the animals' high-pitched communications. In order to understand how it works, let's just have a quick physics lesson.
Here comes the science!
Microphones like those in most electronics use a tiny, thin membrane that vibrates in response to air pressure changes caused by sound waves. Since people generally can't hear anything above 20 kilohertz, the microphone software generally discards any signal above that frequency, although technically it is still being detected — it's called a low-pass filter.
A perfect microphone would vibrate at a known frequency at, and only at, certain input frequencies. But in the real world, the membrane is subject to harmonics — for example, a tone at 400 Hz will also elicit a response at 200 Hz and 800 Hz (I'm fudging the math here but this is the general idea. There are some great gifs illustrating this at Wikipedia). This usually isn't an issue, however, since harmonics are much weaker than the original vibration.
But say you wanted a microphone to register a tone at 100 Hz but for some reason didn't want to emit that tone. If you generated a tone at 800 Hz that was powerful enough, it would create that 100 Hz tone with its harmonics, only on the microphone. Everyone else would just hear the original 800 Hz tone and would have no idea that the device had registered anything else.
Smooth modulator
That's basically what the researchers did, although in a much more exact fashion, of course. They determined that yes, in fact, most microphones used in voice-activated devices, from phones to smart watches to home hubs, are subject to this harmonic effect.
Diagram showing how the ultrasound (the black 'waves') are generated, creating the harmonic in red, then subtracted by the low-pass filter.
First they tested it by creating a target tone with a much higher ultrasonic frequency. That worked, so they tried recreating snippets of voice with layered tones between 500 and 1,000 Hz — a more complicated process, but not fundamentally different. And there's not a lot of specialized hardware needed — off the shell stuff at Fry's or its Chinese equivalent.
The demodulated speech registered just fine, and worked on every major voice recognition platform:
DolphinAttack voice commands, though totally inaudible and therefore imperceptible to humans, can be received by the audio hardware of devices, and correctly understood by speech recognition systems. We validated DolphinAttack on major speech recognition systems, including Siri, Google Now, Samsung S Voice, Huawei HiVoice, Cortana, and Alexa.
They were able to execute a number of commands, from wake phrases ("OK Google") to multi-word requests ("unlock the back door"). Different phones and phrases had different success rates, naturally, or worked better at different distances. None worked farther than 5 feet away, though.
A portable implementation of the system created by the researchers.
It's a scary thought — that invisible commands could be humming through the air and causing your device to execute them (of course, one could say the same of Wi-Fi). But the danger is limited for several reasons.
First, you can defeat DolphinAttack simply by turning off wake phrases. That way you'd have to have already opened the voice recognition interface for the attack to work.
Second, even if you keep the wake phrase on, many devices restrict functions like accessing contacts, apps and websites until you have unlocked them. An attacker could ask about the weather or find nearby Thai places, but it couldn't send you to a malicious website.
Third, and perhaps most obviously, in its current state the attack has to take place within a couple of feet and against a phone in the open. Even if they could get close enough to issue a command, chances are you'd notice right away if your phone woke up and said, "OK, wiring money to Moscow."
That said, there are still places where this could be effective. A compromised IoT device with a speaker that can generate ultrasound might be able to speak to a nearby Echo and tell it to unlock a door or turn off an alarm.
This threat may not be particularly realistic, but it illustrates the many avenues by which attackers can attempt to compromise our devices. Getting them out in the open now and devising countermeasures are an essential part of the vetting process for any technology that aspires to being in everyday use.
