[Correlation of Serum Albumin with Renal Function in Patients with Acute Leukemia].

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the relationship between serum albumin and renal function in patients with acute leukemia (AL) and its clinical significance. METHODS:The clinical data and related test results of 267 newly diagnosed patients with acute leukemia from April 2015 to April 2017 were collected for retrospective cross-sectional analysis. Multivariate regression model was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS:The creatinine level in serum of newly diagnosed acute leukemia patients decreased with the increase of albumin level (the first quartile-the fourth quartile had an average creatinine level of 72.0 µmol/L, 65.2 µmol/L, 62.8 µmol/L, 58.6 µmol/L); Multiple regression model results showed that each elevated albumin 1 g/L, the serum creatinine level decreased 0.89 µmol/L. The serum albumin was grouped into the model by quartile, and the first quartile was used as the reference group. With the increase of albunin, the β value decreased steply (the second and fourth quartile β values were -12.7, -14.81, -15.98), the trend line test p value was <0.05. CONCLUSION:Serum albumin negatively correlats with creatinine level in newly diagnosed acute leukemia patients, and its elevation shows protective effect on renal function.
