Prognostic value of the ratio of C-reactive protein to albumin in abdominal surgery-related diseases / 国际外科学杂志

ABSTRACT

As a classical acute reactive protein, C-reactive protein is an evaluation index to reflect the severity of inflammatory reaction. Albumin can not only reflect the nutritional status of the body, but also reflect the degree of body consumption caused by disease. At present, the ratio of C-reactive protein to albumin has been proved to have a certain predictive value in a variety of abdominal surgical diseases, such as acute pancreatitis, inflammatory bowel disease and various abdominal tumors. Compared with the detection of C-reactive protein or albumin alone, this index has higher sensitivity and accuracy, but also has the characteristics of cheap, early and continuous detection, compared with other prognostic scores, it can provide more timely guidance for disease diagnosis and treatment and follow-up treatment, and it is considered as a new and effective prognostic index. This article reviews the prognostic value of the ratio of C-reactive protein to albumin in abdominal surgery-related diseases.
