Markers of monitoring early renal injury in hypertension patients / 中华检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study diagnostic methods for early renal injury in hypertension patients. Methods Urinary microalbumin (mALB) and ? 2 microglodulin(? 2 MG) levels were measured with rate nepherometry. Total quantitative enzyme immunoassay was employed to measure urinary retinol binding protein (RBP) levels, rate for urinary N acetyl beta D glucosaminidase (NAG), and Jaffes rate for urinary creatinine (Cr). Results The levels of urinary RBP, mALB, ? 2 MG, NAG in hypertension patients were significantly higher than those in controls ( P
