Abstract

Objective: To study the plasma beta2 microglobulin (β2-M) concentration in patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis using turbidimetric immunoassay. To explore the relationship of β2-M with the inflammatory factor CRP, albumin, and dialysis duration to assess inflammation and nutritional status in patients at Thong Nhat Hospital. Subjects and Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study on 207 hemodialysis patients from November 2023 to May 2024 at Thong Nhat Hospital. Results: The average β2-M concentration was 22,01 ± 3,25 (mg/l). The prevalence of elevated CRP levels was 44%. β2-M concentration showed a positive correlation with CRP (r = 0,48, p < 0,001).The rate of decreased albumin was 39,1%, with β2-M showing a negative correlation with albumin (r = -0,51, p < 0,0001). Dialysis duration: Under 5 years 57,5%, Over 5 years 22,7%, over 10 years 20,3%, the average dialysis duration was 4,26 ± 5,67 (years), with β2-M showing a positive correlation with dialysis duration (r = 0,4029, p < 0,0001). Conclusion: The β2-M concentration is elevated by 10 times in patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis. β2-M correlates positively with CRP, negatively with albumin, and positively with dialysis duration.
