SUDDEN DEATH
CAUSED BY DISEASE OF THE KIDNEYl
Tne close connection which exists
between the heart and the kidneys is
well known nowadays. As soon as
kidneys are diseased, arterial" tension
is increased and the heart functions
are attacked. When the kidneys no
longer pour forth waste, uremic poi
soning occurs, and the person dies and
the cause is often given as heart dis
ease, or disease of brain or lungs.
