Application value of serum unconjugated bilirubin and albumin detections in children with neonatal jaundice

Objective To observe and analyze the application value of serum unconjugated bilirubin (UCB) and albumin (ALB) detections in children with neonatal jaundice.Methods A total of 285 children with neonatal jaundice were selected.The serum UCB,total bilirubin (TBIL),ALB and β2 microglobulin (β2-MG) levels of the children were detected and compared.Results The serum UCB,TBIL,UCB/ALB,β2-MG levels in children with severe jaundice were significantly higher than those with moderate jaundice (P ＜ 0.05).The serum UCB,TBIL,UCB/ALB,β2-MG levels in children with nuclear jaundice were significantly higher than those without nuclear jaundice (P ＜ 0.05).The serum UCB,TBIL,UCB/ALB,β2-MG levels in children with infectious jaundice were significantly higher than those with other three etiological types (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The serum UCB and UCB/ALB levels in the children with neonatal jaundice are correlated with the severity of the disease and the etiological type.
