Circadian rhythms in some nephrological diseases

Abstract
By now, it is well known that the circadian clock is an evolutionarily preserved mechanism that adapts the physiological processes of the body to circadian cycles. Circadian rhythms of kidney function are an integral part of kidney physiology.
The most well-known general data on the mechanism of the circadian clock, as well as the features of the course of some nephrological diseases in terms of circadian rhythms, are briefly considered.
It has to be stated that there are very few studies on the effect of circadian rhythms on the course of kidney disease, especially clinical studies.
