Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of clinical laboratory indexes on judgment of hypovolemia in the patients with nephrotic syndrome (NS).Methods The blood volume of each 50 cases of healthy adult men and women was assessed with indocyanine green-pulse dye densitometry (ICG-PDD).The normal range of blood volume and the cut-off value of hypovolemia were determined.The blood volume of 81 patients with NS was also measured with ICG-PDD and then these patients were divided into the hypovolemic group (21 cases) and the non-hypovolemic group (60 cases) according to the cut-off value of hypovolemia.The test data of clinical laboratory indexes of the patients in the two groups were compared,and the indexes with statistic difference were screened out.Their diagnostic values on judgment of hypovolemia were evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis,and finally the indexes with high judgment accuracy were selected.Results ①The cut-off values of hypovolemia are ＜ 52.9 ml/kg for the male and ＜ 52.5 ml/kg for the women,which were determined with ICG-PDD.②The five clinical laboratory indexes,including orthostatic heart rate (OHR) increase ＞ 10 bit per minute,fractional excretion of sodium (FENa) ＜ 1,transtubular potassium gradient (TTKG) ＞ 60％,blood urea nitrogen/serum creatinine ratio (BUN/Scr) ＞ 20,and urine specific gravity (SG) ＞ 1.020,were used to judge the hypovolemia in NS patients in this study.ROC curve analysis showed that the diagnostic accuracy in judgment of hypovolemia by one index or two indexes combination only belonged to medium level.However,the diagnostic accuracy in judgment of hypovolemia by the following three indexes combination,i.e.OHR increase+FeNa+BUN/Scr,FeNa+ BUN/Scr+SG,OHR increase+TFKG+BUN/Scr,or ORG increase+FeNa+TTTKG,reached high level.Conclusion This study obtained the cutoff value of Chinese adults hypovolemia are ＜ 52.9 ml/kg for the male and ＜ 52.5 ml/kg for the women,which are determined with ICG-PDD,through evaluation we recommend applying the above four specific combinations of three indexes for diagnosis of hypovolemia in NS patients.
