The role of blood urea nitrogen to serum albumin ratio in the prediction of severity and 30-day mortality in patients with COVID-19 [PDF]
Health Science Reports, 2022 AbstractBackgroundConsidering the role of higher blood urea nitrogen and lower serum albumin (SA) levels in deceased coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) patients, an increased blood urea nitrogen to SA (B/A) ratio may help to determine those at higher risk of critical illness.
