Low serum albumin levels as a predictor of increased risk of cancer in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis
Lower serum albumin levels are associated with increased risks of cancer and subsequent mortality following cancer diagnosis in patients undergoing HD. These results suggest a potential role for serum albumin in risk assessment, but further prospective studies are warranted to evaluate its clinical implications.
