Predictive value of the C-reactive protein/albumin ratio in severity and prognosis of acute pancreatitis

Abstract

The CRP/ALB ratio may be a novel but promising, easily measurable, reproducible, non-invasive prognostic score that can be used to predict SAP, death, pancreatic necrosis, and organ failure in AP patients, which can be a supplement of Ranson, MCTSI, and BISAP scores.
