Serum Albumin-Globulin ratio reversal predicts morbidity in patients hospitalized for Influenza A(H1N1) infection.

The Diagnostic Significance of Usual Biochemical Parameters in Coronavirus Disease 19 (COVID-19): Albumin to Globulin Ratio and CRP to Albumin Ratio

“…In different solid tumor patients, a high AGR has a significant positive prognostic effect on survival (7). In patients hospitalized with H 1 N 1 infection, AGR reversal (ratio < 1) was associated with prolonged hospital stay, ICU admission, and ventilator use (8). Two months after the spread of SARS-CoV-2 in Italy, Verdoni et al found a 30-fold increased incidence of Kawasaki-like disease in children 9, a rare acute hyper-inflammatory syndrome emerging during the COVID-19 pandemic (10) with coronary artery aneurysms as its main complication.…”

Association of Hypoalbuminemia and Reversal of Albumin-to-Globulin Ratio with Morbidity Outcome among Hospitalized Lassa Fever Infected Patients at a Dedicated Treatment Center in Ondo state, South-Western Nigeria

“…Majority of the LF-infected patients in this study had low albumin-to-globulin ratio. This ratio has been used as prognostic factor in different conditions [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11].…”

“…It has been shown to predict morbidity outcomes of H1N1 infection [4]. Studies have also identified the prognostic role of albumin-to-globulin ratio in predicting clinical outcomes and survival in cancers [5,11].…”

“…Albumin-to-globulin ratio has been reported as a prognostic factor in various disease conditions, including cancers. Also, it has been reported as a predictor of prognostic outcome in infectious disease such as H1N1 influenza viral infection [4]. It has also been indicated that albumin-to-globulin ratio has significant prognostic effect on the survival in different solid tumor patients including both nonmetastatic and metastatic patients [5].…”
