Hypoproteinemia (hypoproteinemia)

Japanese: 低タンパク血症(低蛋白血症) - ていたんぱくけつしょう(英語表記)hypoproteinemia
Hypoproteinemia (hypoproteinemia)
This refers to a pathologically low state of total protein (normal 6.5-8.0 g/dl) or albumin (normal 3.8-4.8 g/dl) in the blood. Except for cases of hemodilution after major bleeding, etc., this is caused by inadequate protein intake/supply (starvation, malnutrition, pancreatitis, malabsorption syndrome, etc.), impaired synthesis (liver disease, pregnancy), increased breakdown (chronic inflammation such as tuberculosis, hyperthyroidism, diabetes, cancer), and loss of albumin (due to ulcerative colitis, nephrotic syndrome, ascites, burns, skin diseases, etc.).
