Fibrinogen and the albumin-globulin ratio in recurrent stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In following patients initially recruited for a cross-sectional study of blood viscosity in ischemic cerebrovascular disease, it was noted that those having a low albumin-globulin ratio appeared to experience the majority of subsequent vascular events. Accordingly, a prospective study in which subjects were assigned to a high or low albumin-globulin cohort was undertaken ...
متن کاملThe Albumin/Globulin Ratio in Serum
THE SEPARATION of albumin from its associated globulins in serum or plasma has exercised physiologists and biochemists for many years. Several methods are available for assessing the albumin content of serum by prior precipitation of globulins (1-9). In 1949 Martin and Morris (10) examined a series of methods (1, 2, 5-7) and concluded, by comparison with the results of “free” electrophoresis, t...
متن کاملThe Albumin/Globulin Ratio: A Technical Study.
In 1885-6 Kauder observed that globulin was precipitated from serum when the concentration of ammonium sulphate reached 24 to 29 per cent of full saturation and that its precipitation was complete when the concentration reached 36 to 46 per cent of complete saturation. Thereafter no further precipitation took place until the concentration reached 64 per cent of full saturation, when albu-min st...
متن کاملAlbumin to globulin ratio, a predictor or a misleader?
We appreciate the letter to the editor by Alkan et al. [1] in response to our recently published article [2]. Alkan et al. bring up some potentially valid points about our study. They suggest rheumatic diseases should have been excluded from the study population, as these conditions are ‘important causatives for chronic inflammation.’ They also suggest the inclusion of elderly subjects older th...
متن کاملSerum Albumin and Globulin
Hundreds of proteins are dissolved in the plasma. By measuring the concentration of these proteins, the clinician can obtain information regarding disease states in different organ systems. The measurement of protein is done on serum, which is the fluid that remains after plasma has clotted, thus removing fibrinogen and most of the clotting factors. Total protein content provides some informati...
