This review assesses how publications interpret factors that influence the serum or plasma
albumin (PA) level in prognostic indices, focusing on inflammation and nutrition. On …

Diminished serum albumin level can be observed in inflammatory processes. Serum
albumin level also reduces–irrespective of the presence of malnutrition–in locally advanced …

Reduced levels of serum albumin concentration, a routine blood test, within the “normal”
range have been reported to be associated with mortality risk. The literature is reviewed …

Hypoalbuminemia is common in hypoalbuminemia-associated disorders (HAD), eg, liver
and kidney disease. We hypothesize that hospitalized patients with hypoalbuminemia have …

Serum albumin (ALB), one of the most important proteins in human physiology, has the main
functions of maintaining plasma oncotic pressure and plasma volume, transporting …

Serum albumin is a major component of serum protein that is widely used in clinical practice
as an indicator of nutritional or inflammatory status. In clinical practice, serum albumin level …

Albumin, the most abundant circulating protein in blood, is an essential protein which binds
and transports various drugs and substances, maintains the oncotic pressure of blood and …

Objective Emergency patients with hypoalbuminemia are known to have increased mortality.
No previous studies have, however, assessed the predictive value of low albumin on …

Background There are several methods of assessing nutritional status in cancer of which
serum albumin is one of the most commonly used. In recent years, the role of malnutrition as …

Background The prognostic significance of hypoalbuminemia and the dynamic changes in
serum albumin during hospitalization in internal medicine wards has not been sufficiently …
