CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF DETERMINATION OF TRACE PROTEINURIA IN CHRONIC B HEPATITIS AND LIVER CIRRHOSIS / 解放军医学杂志

Urinary microquantitative albumin (UALb), immunoglobulin G (UIgG) ?2-microglo-bulin (U?2m), and Tamm-Horsfall protein (THP) were measured in 36 chronic B hepatitis (CHB) and 23 liver cirrhosis (LC) patients with radioimmunoassay. 109 healthy normal subjects served as controls. The results showed that the excretion of UALb was significantly increased in 17 patients. Out of 17 patients,the excretion of UIgG in 5 and U?2m in 16 were increased and the excretion of THP in 9 patients were decreased. Compared with normal controls there was a significant difference (P
