Abstract: Objective To explore changes in β2-microglobulin (β2-MG) levels through the detection of uromicroprotein in children with mycoplasma pneumonia and its clinical value .Methods Levels of urine routine , uromicroprotein, urian, creatinine ( CR) and other indicators were detected in 50 healthy children and 98 child patients with mycoplasma pneumonia , and comparisons were made between them.Results The level of β2-MG[(0.47 ±0.32)mg/L]in the children with mycoplasma pneumonia was signifi-cantly higher than that of the control group [(0.13 ±0.12) mg/L] (P <0.01).Thirty-four cases of urinary micoalbuminuria (34.7%) were detected in the children with mycoplasma pneumonia , and 9 cases urinary micoalbuminuria ( 9.2%) were detected through urine routine.Statistical significance could be found , when comparisons were made between the two (P<0.01).Conclusion Mycoplasma pneumonia could damage the renal function of the child patients to various extents .The detection of β2-microglobulin levelwas of clinical significance to the early diagnosis of renal dysfunction of children with mycoplasma pneumonia .
