CRP and Hypoalbuminemia: Although hypoalbuminemia may be partially explained by CRP-mediated systemic inflammation, our data showed that the correlation between albumin and NLR (p = 0.023, Pearson correlation) was more significant than that between albumin and CRP (p = 0.078, Pearson correlation), and PLR was positively associated with serum ornithine levels rather than CRP levels.
