Introduction: The mortality rate from sepsis is much greater than that from acute coronary syndrome or stroke. Uncontrolled release of cytokines (abnormalities in the inflammatory response) such as TNF-α and IL-1, IL-6 can reduce serum albumin level, so that the presence of hypoalbuminemia conditions can indicate how the inflammatory reaction occurs in septic patients. Albumin can be a predictor of mortality in septic patients. This study aims to determine the correlation between serum albumin level and the 28-day mortality of patients with sepsis. Methods: This study is an analytical observational study with a retrospective cohort design. The research was conducted in September 2020 until the completion of data collection at dr. Mohammad Hoesin Hospital Palembang. The sample in this study were all sepsis patients in the intensive care unit who were registered in the Medical Record Installation of dr. Mohammad Hoesin Hospital Palembang from 1 January 2019 to 31 December 2019 met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. After the data was collected, analysis was carried out using the STATA program. Results: The serum albumin value ≤ of 2.6 mg / dL on the fourth day was significant with the mortality of septic patients. Patients with a serum albumin value ≤ 2.6 mg / dL had a risk of 1.288 times experiencing death compared to an albumin value> 2.6 mg / dL. Albumin in the fourth day had moderate correlation with sepsis patient mortality (r = 0.497; p = 0.001) Conclusion: Albumin serum on the fourth day had a moderate correlation with 28 days sepsis patient mortality

Abstract The prognostic utility of serum albumin level as a predictor of survival in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) has attracted considerable attention. This meta-analysis sought to investigate the prognostic value of serum albumin level for predicting all-cause mortality in ACS patients. A systematic literature search was conducted in Pubmed and Embase databases until 5 March 2019. Epidemiological studies investigating the association between serum albumin level and all-cause mortality risk in ACS patients were included. Eight studies comprising 21667 ACS patients were included. Meta-analysis indicated that ACS patients with low serum albumin level had an increased risk of all-cause mortality (risk ratio [RR] 2.15; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.68–2.75) after adjusting for important covariates. Subgroup analysis showed that the impact of low serum albumin level was stronger in hospital mortality (RR 3.09; 95% CI 1.70–5.61) than long-term all-cause mortality (RR 1.75; 95% CI 1.54–1.98). This meta-analysis demonstrates that low serum albumin level is a powerful predictor of all-cause mortality in ACS patients, even after adjusting usual confounding factors. However, there is lack of clinical trials to demonstrate that correcting serum albumin level by means of intravenous infusion reduces the excess risk of death in ACS patients.

Background: This study was to analyze the incidence, risk factors, and clinical outcomes of peritonitis in elderly continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients. Methods: Incident patients undergone CAPD from 1 January 2006 to 30 June 2015 in our center were enrolled and divided into aged < 65 years and ≥ 65 years groups. Risk factors were evaluated using a logistic regression model, and outcome comparison was evaluated using a Cox proportional model. Results: Among 1953 patients, 111(33.2%) in elderly ( n = 334) and 470 (29.0%) in younger ( n = 1619) developed at least one episode of peritonitis. Comparing with younger patients, elderly ones had a higher peritonitis rate (0.203 vs. 0.145 episodes/patient-year, p < 0.05). The multivariate Cox regression showed that advanced age (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.06, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.01–1.11, p = 0.015), assistant-assisted peritoneal dialysis (PD; HR = 2.64, 95% CI = 1.23–5.64, p = 0.012), higher body mass index (BMI; HR = 1.11, 95% CI = 1.02–1.20, p = 0.010), and low serum albumin level (HR = 0.94, 95% CI = 0.90–0.98, p = 0.004) were associated with increased peritonitis risk in elderly patients. Compared with younger ones with peritonitis, elderly patients had an approximately fourfold increased risk of peritonitis-related mortality (odd ratio (OR) = 3.57, 95% CI = 1.38–9.28, p = 0.009). During the cohort, peritonitis was the risk factor associated with technique failure (HR = 3.19, 95% CI = 2.33–4.39, p < 0.001) in younger patient but not in the elderly population (HR = 1.82, 95% CI = 0.84–3.94, p = 0.132). Conclusions: Elderly PD patients had higher prevalence for peritonitis and peritonitis-related mortality. Advanced age, assistant-assisted PD, a higher BMI, and lower serum albumin level were independently associated with the first episode of peritonitis in elderly patients. However, peritonitis was not the predictor of death-censored technique failure in elderly ones.

OBJECTIVEHypoalbuminemia is known to be independently associated with postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI). However, little is known about the association between the preoperative serum albumin level and postoperative AKI in patients undergoing brain tumor surgery. The authors investigated the incidence of AKI, impact of preoperative serum albumin level on postoperative AKI, and death in patients undergoing brain tumor surgery.METHODSThe authors retrospectively reviewed the electronic medical records and laboratory results of 2363 patients who underwent brain tumor surgery between January 2008 and December 2014. Postoperative AKI was defined according to Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes Definition and Staging (KDIGO). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify demographic, preoperative laboratory, and intraoperative factors associated with AKI development. Cox proportional hazards models were used to investigate the adjusted odds ratio and hazard ratio for the association between preoperative serum albumin level and outcome variables.RESULTSThe incidence of AKI was 1.8% (n = 43) using KDIGO criteria. The incidence of AKI was higher in patients with a preoperative serum albumin level < 3.8 g/dl (3.5%) than in those with a preoperative serum albumin level ≥ 3.8 g/dl (1.2%, p < 0.001). The overall mortality was also higher in the former than in the latter group (5.0% vs 1.8%, p < 0.001). After inverse probability of treatment-weighting adjustment, a preoperative serum albumin level < 3.8 g/dl was also found to be associated with postoperative AKI (OR 1.981, 95% CI 1.022–3.841; p = 0.043) and death (HR 2.726, 95% CI 1.522–4.880; p = 0.001).CONCLUSIONSThe authors’ results demonstrated that a preoperative serum albumin level of < 3.8 g/dl was independently associated with AKI and mortality in patients undergoing brain tumor surgery.
