Objective: A survey has been made regarding B2 - M serum concentration and relations in patients with chronic renal failure. Subject and methods: A survey has been made regarding B2 - M serum concentration and relations in 103 patients with chronic renal failure, which includes 80 dialysis patients, 20 peritoneal dialysis patients and 23 chronic kidney failure (pre-dialysis) patients. Results: Patients with period dialysis have highest B2 - M serum level (25.8 +/- U,2mg/l) compared to those with peritoneal dialysis patients (23.2 +/- 4.2 mg/l) and pre-dialysis patients (14.1 +/- 4,8mg/l). Dialysis time correlates closely with B2 - M serum concentration (r = 0.614 and p 0.01)
B2 - M -serum concentration correlates closely with CRP renal inflammation factor (r
