Adequate knowledge about the causes of chronic kidney disease and their potential prevention can improve poor clinical outcome in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. The study was designed to evaluate the serum albumin and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in hospitalized patients with Chronic Kidney Disease. This cross-sectional study was carried out in the Department of Biochemistry, Mymensingh Medical College, Mymensingh, Bangladesh with the collaboration of the Department of Nephrology, Mymensingh Medical College Hospital, Mymensingh, from January 2021 to December 2021. The subjects were selected on the basis of inclusion and exclusion criteria by purposive and convenient sampling method. A total of 110 subjects were included in this study. Among them, 55 were diagnosed CKD patients denoted as Group I and 55 were normal healthy individuals denoted as Group II. In this study, serum albumin and CRP levels were measured. All values were expressed as Mean±SD. All statistical analysis was done by using SPSS (statistical package for social science) windows package version 21.0. Statistical significance of difference between Group I and Group II were evaluated by using student's unpaired 't'-test and the significance was defined as p<0.05. Correlation was done by using Pearson's correlation coefficient test. Mean age of Group I was 52.65±4.93 and Group II was 51.15±6.32 (p=0.165). The mean±SD of BMI was 24.46±1.84 for Group I and 24.50±1.05 for Group II (p=0.886). The mean±SD values of serum albumin were 3.62±0.26g/dl and 4.16±0.69g/dl in Group I and Group II respectively. We found highly significant (p<0.001) decrease in serum albumin. The mean±SD values of CRP were 24.00±16.73mg/L and <6.0±0.00mg/L in Group I and Group II respectively. So, we found significant (p<0.05) increase in CRP levels. There was negative correlation between serum albumin and CRP. Analyzing the findings of this study, significant decrease in serum albumin and significant increase in CRP levels were observed in CKD patients. |
