ALB and neoplasm: In the univariate analysis, advanced age (p< 0.001), male sex (p < 0.001), advanced tumor stage (p < 0.001), localization (head vs. body, p = 0.001), elevated CA19-9 values (p < 0.001), higher ECOG status (p < 0.001), decreased albumin levels (p < 0.001), active smoking (p < 0.001), lower BMI (p = 0.018), and chronic kidney disease stage (p = 0.002) correlated with a shorter overall survival.
