The association between prealbumin, all-cause mortality and response to nutritional treatment in patients at nutritional risk. Secondary analysis of a randomized-controlled trial.

JPEN - Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, 2023
INTRODUCTION Due to the shorter half-life as compared with albumin, serum prealbumin concentrations have been proposed to be useful nutritional biomarkers for the assessment of patients at nutritional risk.

Serum albumin and prealbumin predict the poor outcome of traumatic brain injury. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
BACKGROUND: Serum albumin and prealbumin are both negative acute-phase reactants, and usually at low levels in stress. We aim to determine their predictive values for poor outcome of traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Comparative Analysis of Four Matrix Dilution Methods for Eliminating IgM Paraprotein Interference in Prealbumin and Uric Acid Assays: Based on Two Case Reports [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 9, May 2026.
IgM paraproteins can cause significant interference in prealbumin (PA) and uric acid (UA) measurements, leading to falsely abnormal results. We systematically compared four dilution methods to eliminate this interference. Dilution with the PA reagent (containing PEG) effectively restored accurate PA results.

Preoperative serum prealbumin as a prognostic marker for survival after gallbladder cancer resection: a multicenter study [PDF]

BMC Gastroenterology
Purpose Prealbumin, a marker of nutritional and inflammatory status, has shown prognostic value in various malignancies. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of preoperative serum prealbumin levels in gallbladder cancer (GBC) patients

Prealbumin predicts metachronous liver metastasis in colorectal cancer [PDF]

BMC Cancer
Background Predicting metachronous liver metastasis (MLM) in colorectal cancer (CRC) is crucial in clinical practice. Studies have shown that prealbumin is linked to recurrence and poor overall survival in various malignancies.

Association between prealbumin levels and the risk of osteoporosis among individuals aged 50 and above in Southwest China: a retrospective case–control study [PDF]

Frontiers in Medicine
BackgroundSuboptimal nutritional status has been significantly correlated with the risk of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. Low prealbumin levels are considered independent factors associated with decreased bone mineral density (BMD).

THE ASSOCIATION OF PREALBUMIN WITH NUTRITIONAL MARKERS AND INFLAMMATION IN INCIDENT PERITONEAL DIALYSIS PATIENTS

Kidney Research and Clinical Practice, 2012
Prealbumin, also known as transthyretin, is generally a more sensitive marker for protein-energy status than albumin and it is reported as an independent risk for mortality in hemodialysis patients.

The relationship between nutritional status and prealbumin levels in children with loss of appetite and iron deficiency: a prospective cross-sectional study [PDF]

Frontiers in Nutrition
BackgroundPrealbumin, a hepatic protein with a short half-life, has emerged as a sensitive biomarker for assessing nutritional status. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between nutritional status and prealbumin levels in children experiencing
