The condition is ultimately a symptom of another condition. Treatment to address the underlying condition can improve albumin protein levels.

28 Αυγ 2023 · Hypoalbuminaemia may be a result of decreased production (rare) of albumin or increased loss of albumin via the kidneys, gastrointestinal (GI) tract, skin, or extravascular space or increased catabolism of albumin or a combination of 2 or more of these mechanisms.
Hypoalbuminemia portends poor long-term prognosis in hospitalized patients regardless of the underlying disease and could be added to prognostic predictive models. Keywords: albumin, hypoalbuminemia, prognosis, predictive model, mortality, hospitalization. 1. Introduction. Albumin is a water-soluble 65kD protein [1], synthesized by the liver [2].
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]
