Nephrology is a specialty of medicine that focuses on the study of normal kidney function, kidney problems, treatment of kidney conditions, and renal replacement therapy (dialysis and kidney transplantation). It also addresses systemic conditions that affect the kidneys, such as diabetes and autoimmune diseases, and systemic issues that arise as a result of kidney problems, including renal osteodystrophy and hypertension.
