Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is an important public health issue, with a leading cause of death and disability around the world. This cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2021 to December 2021 in the department of Biochemistry in Mymensingh Medical College in cooperation with the Department of Nephrology, Mymensingh Medical College Hospital, Mymensingh, Bangladesh. The study was carried out to evaluate the status of serum magnesium, zinc and CRP in patients with CKD not on dialysis for monitoring the disease progression. For this purpose, 110 subjects were included, where 55 Hospitalized CKD patients were considered as Group I and 55 normal healthy individuals as Group II. Study subjects were selected on the basis of inclusion and exclusion criteria by purposive and convenient sampling method. Serum magnesium and zinc were determined by colorimetric method while CRP was measured by CRP-Latex Test (Slide Agglutination Test) from each sample. SPSS windows package, version 21.0 was used to perform the statistical analysis. 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 years. P-value was 0.165 which is statistically insignificant. The mean ±SD of BMI was 24.46±1.84 Kg/m² for Group I and 24.50±1.05 Kg/m² for Group II. P-value was 0.886 which is statistically insignificant. Among the study groups the mean serum magnesium were 2.25±0.17 and 1.95±0.05mg/dl, zinc were 88.64±9.21 and 102.11±12.93μg/dl, CRP were 24.00±16.73 and <6.0±0.00mg/L in Group I and Group II respectively. Analysis showed that, the mean serum magnesium and CRP were significantly increased while serum zinc was significantly decreased in CKD patients in comparison to that of healthy individual. There was negative correlation between serum zinc and CRP. This study was done within the context of the facilities available to us. |
