ALB and chronic kidney disease: For illustration, a CKD patient on a LPD, energy consumption = 15 kcal/kg/day (12.5 points), age = 65years (75 points), anemia = ‘Yes’ (16 points), serum albumin = 30 g/L (52.5 points), diabetes = ‘Yes’ (7.5 points), BMI = 40 kg/m2 (12.5 points), eGFR = 40 ml/min/1.73m2 (12.5 points), and cumulative total score 188.5 points which corresponded to the 3, and 5-year renal survival likelihood of approximately 65%, and 50%.
