[Albumin metabolism in chronic renal insufficiency].
A state of 131-albumin metabolism has been investigated in 70 patients with some diffuse renal disease. In patients with chronic renal insufficiency an intravascular albumin mass was in the normal limits, while an albumin concentration was decreased because of an anemia. A depression of albumin catabolism has been noticed in azotemia as well as in albuminuria. A conclusion has been made that serum albumin concentration cannot be a reliable index of the state of protein metabolism in patients with chronic renal failure.
