Changes in nutritional status, such as weight loss and malnutrition, are a very common complication in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). These changes primarily affect the patients' quality of life and functional capacity and they are also independent prognostic indicators of both morbidity and mortality. Malnutrition in these

Serum albumin and nutritional status
Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, 1980Serum albumin concentration is frequently used to define nutritional status. To validate this relationship, 161 body composition studies were performed on 102 patients simultaneously with protein electrophoresis. The body cell mass represented by the exchangeable potassium to total body water ratio correlated significantly (p < 0.001) with the serum
