5 Ιουν 2024 · Possible causes of low albumin levels include liver failure, kidney disease, heart failure, gastrointestinal conditions, and malnutrition. Sepsis and burns can also lead to...

Causes. Hypoalbuminemia can be caused through a number of different mechanisms, each with the result of decreasing albumin levels. These include: 1) impaired synthesis within the liver, 2) increased utilization by tissue, 3) distributional issues, and 4) increased excretion or loss. [7]
9 Φεβ 2024 · It is also unsurprising that hypoalbuminaemia has proved to be an indicator of morbidity and mortality risk since the underlying conditions which cause it, including protein energy malnutrition, crystalloid overload, inflammation, and liver dysfunction are themselves risk factors.
