Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Lower than normal albumin levels may be a sign of: Liver disease, including severe cirrhosis, hepatitis, and fatty liver disease.
Detailed explanation-2: -The administration of albumin to patients with cirrhosis and ascites causes an increase in total blood volume, followed by a moderate reduction, but not normalization, of the activity of vasoconstrictor and anti-natriuretic systems. These circulatory changes are associated with favorable effects on renal function.
Detailed explanation-3: -Hypoalbuminemia occurs when albumin levels in the blood are very low. In adults, albumin concentration is typically between 35–50 grams per liter (g/L) . Albumin levels below 35 g/L indicate hypoalbuminemia.
