However, analysis using Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA) showed that 28% of patients were moderately or severely malnourished before surgery [22]. Arshad et al. reported that Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) is correlated with serum albumin levels, and can be used for evaluation of malnutrition in end-stage renal disease [23]. This evidence concerns the gene ALB and malnutrition.
