INCREASED
absolute serum albumin content is not
seen as a natural condition. Relative
increase
may
occur
in
hemoconcentration. Absolute increase
may occur artificially by infusion of
hyperoncotic albumin suspensions.
DECREASED
serum albumin is seen in states of
decreased synthesis (malnutrition,
malabsorption, liver disease, and
other chronic diseases), increased
loss (nephritic syndrome, many GI
conditions, thermal burns, etc.), and
increased
catabolism
(thyrotoxicosis, cancer chemotherapy,
Cushings
disease,
familial
hypoproteinemia).
INCREASED
serum alkaline phosphatase is seen in
states of increased osteoblastic
activity
(hyperparathyroidism,

Disproportionate ELEVATION
of direct (conjugated) bilirubin is seen
in cholestasis and late in the course
of chronic liver disease. Indirect
(unconjugated) bilirubin tends to
predominate
in
hemolysis
and
Gilberts disease.
DECREASED
serum total bilirubin is probably not of
clinical significance but has been
observed in iron deficiency anemia.
