| Core Tip |
The lactate-to-albumin ratio, C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio, and prognostic nutritional index may help clinicians interpret routinely available laboratory results within a broader biological framework that includes metabolic stress, inflammation, albumin biology, and immune nutritional reserve. Their greatest potential value is not as standalone decision tools, but as adjuncts to bedside assessment and established severity scores. Future studies should determine whether serial measurements, disease specific thresholds, and integration into existing prognostic models improve clinical decision making and patient risk stratification. |
