ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the diagnostic value of urine retinol binding protein (RBP) ,beta‐N‐acetyl amino glycosidase enzymes(NAG) combined with serum cystatin C (CysC) detection in early kidney damage of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM ) . Methods Totally 58 cases of T2DM complicating in our hospital were selected as the group A ,54 cases of simple T2DM (group B) and 52 individuals undergoing the physical examination(group C) .The urine RBP ,NAG and serum CysC were detected in three groups ,their differences were compared .The positive rates for detecting early diabetic renal damage were compared between the single index detection and combined detection .Results The levels of urine RBP ,NAG and serum CysC level in the group A were significantly higher than those in the group B and C ,the differences were statistically significant (P< 0 .05);the levels of urine RBP ,NAG and serum CysC level in the group B were significantly higher than those in the group C ,the differences were statistical‐ly significant(P<0 .05);The positive rates of single detection of RBP ,NAG and CysC were 87 .93% ,86 .21% and 84 .48% respec‐tively ,the positive rate of 3‐index combined detection was 94 .83% ,which was significantly higher than that of single index detec‐tion ,the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .05) .Conclusion Urine RBP ,NAG and serum CysC are the sensitive indexes in early diabetic renal damage .The 3‐index combined detection has better comprehensive sensitivity and possesses higher clinical ap‐plication value .
