Hi,
Loss of CMD (Cortico Medullary Distinctinction) has been observed in renal insufficiency, secondary to a variety of etiologies, including glomerulonephritis, acute tubular necrosis, end‐stage chronic renal failure, obstructive hydronephrosis.
It will be better if you mention your symptoms and get back to us or you can talk to your doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Prabhash Verma, General & Family Physician
