ALB and peritonitis: In addition, the peritonitis group had lower serum albumin (34.4 ± 4.7 g/L vs. 37.0 ± 3.0 g/L, p = 0.010), lower blood leukocyte (6.2 ± 1.2 × 109/L vs. 7.7 ± 2.0 × 109/L, p = 0.007), lower hemoglobin (106.7 ± 9.3 g/L vs. 115.1 ± 11.0 g/L, p = 0.012) and lower platelet count (141.8 ± 63.3 × 1012/L vs. 204.8 ± 67.4 × 1012/L, p = 0.003) as compared to the non-peritonitis group.
