Utility of neutrophil/albumin ratio and C-reactive protein/albumin ratio as novel inflammatory markers in Behcet's disease

Serum Albumin in Health and Disease: From Comparative Biochemistry to Translational Medicine

“…It emphasizes the integrative role of this protein, which serves as a link between various tissues and organs. As an example, here are a few of these markers described in recent studies: neutrophil/pre-albumin for diagnosing and predicting disease activity in patients with inflammatory bowel disease [ 22 ]; lactate/albumin as a predictor of in-hospital mortality in hospitalized cirrhotics [ 23 ]; neutrophil/albumin and C-reactive protein/albumin as novel inflammatory markers in Behcet’s disease [ 24 ]; zinc/albumin as potential biomarkers for a precision medicine approach to COVID-19 [ 25 ]; ferritin/albumin as a new indicator of COVID-19 disease mortality [ 26 ]; blood urea nitrogen/albumin for predicting prognostic outcomes of inpatients with COVID-19 [ 27 ]; procalcitonin/albumin for identifying sepsis in neonates with pneumonia [ 28 ]; international normalized ratio/albumin as a novel marker of upper gastrointestinal bleeding severity [ 29 ].…”
