Abstract:
Objective To explore the diagnostic value of serum Cys-C, hs-CRP, and urine mALB for early renal injury in gonty patients. Methods A total of 100 gonty patients and 50 healthy volunteers were divided into 3 groups, acute phase group (n = 50), intermittent group (n= 50), and healthy control group (n = 50) . The serum Cys C,hs-CRP,and urine creatinine were determined by automatic chemistry analyzer and urine mALB by immunofluorometer equipment, and the results were analyzed in each group. Results The results of mALB/Cr(mg/[g • Cr]), hs-CRP(mg/L), and Cys-C(mg/L)in acute phase group were 11.45±3.55, 5.15±1.98, and 2.62±0.83, in intermittent group were 8.96±1.78, 3.28±1.23, and 0.93±0.26, and in healthy volunteer group were 3.89± 0.76, 1.91±0.57, and 0.78±0.22, respectively. The values of the above three parameters in the acute phase and intermittent groups were significantly higher than those in the healthy control group (P< 0.05) ; and the values in the acute phase group were significantly higher than those in the intermittent group (P<0.05). The abnormal rate of hs-CRP+ Cys-C+ mALB/Cr was 87% in gonty patients. Conclusion Simultaneous determination of mALB/ Cr, hs-CRP, and Cys-C can help to assess the early renal injury in gonty patients.
