Relationship between total plasma bilirubin concentration with kidney damage in type 2 diabetes patients at Thai Nguyen national hospital
Overview
Abstract:
The study was conducted to determine the relationship between total
plasma bilirubin concentration and some tests with kidney damage. Low
concentrations of total plasma bilirubin are considered a risk factor for
kidney damage. The research on 320 patients of type 2 diabetes treated at Thai
Nguyen National Hospital, we classified them into 2 groups with kidney damage
and without kidney damage. The results of average total bilirubin concentration
had a statistically significant difference with p<0.05 in the kidney damage
group (11.8±3.9 μmol/L) and the non-kidney damage group (13.2±4.9 μmol/L). The
results showed that in patients with kidney damage due to type 2 diabetes,
there was a negative correlation between total plasma Bilirrubin concentration
and Cholesterol concentration (r = -0.8, p < 0.05). There was a positive
correlation between Proteinuria and Plasma glucose concentration (r = 0.2; p =
0.001). However, we have not found a statistically significant difference
between total Bilirubin concentration and glomerular filtration rate. The study
results show that more longitudinal monitoring is needed to determine the role
of bilirubin in monitoring and assessing kidney damage.
