[Effect of hemodialysis on the concentration of beta 2-microglobulin and acute phase proteins in the serum of patients with chronic renal failure].

In 24 patients with terminal renal failure the concentrations were determined of beta 2-microglobulin, prealbumin, alpha 1-antitrypsin, ceruloplasmin, alpha 2-macroglobulin, antithrombin III, plasminogen, transferrin, C3c and Cr complement components in the serum before and after haemodialysis. A statistically significant rise of concentrations of these proteins was found. It is thought that this rise was due mainly to haemoconcentration, while the contact with dialysing membranes is less important.
