ALB and COVID-19: Based on the observations that oxidized shifts of serum ALB in various diseases are generally accompanied by decreases in serum ALB levels in various diseases, as well as a recent report that decreases in serum ALB level was frequently seen in many COVID-19 patients [81], Rahmani-Kukia et al. proposed the possibility that cytokine storm seen in COVID-19 patients could be attributed increased serum ALB oxidation [82], as seen in liver diseases [23].
