Study Notes
Hypoproteinemia (نقص بروتينات الدم)
- Malnutrition and/or malabsorption can lead to hypoproteinemia
- Excessive loss of protein due to renal disease, GI leakage, or severe burns can cause hypoproteinemia
- Excessive bleeding and severe catabolism can also lead to hypoproteinemia
- Liver disease is another cause of hypoproteinemia
Hyperproteinemia (فرط بروتينات الدم)
- Dehydration is a cause of hyperproteinemia
- Monoclonal increases, such as in multiple myeloma, can lead to hyperproteinemia
- Only disorders affecting albumin and/or immunoglobulin levels can cause abnormal total protein levels
- Total protein measurements are used to diagnose and treat diseases involving the liver, kidney, or bone marrow, as well as metabolic or nutritional disorders
