A member asked:
Wouldn't malnutrition due to crohn's disease cause an abnormal prealbumin blood level?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pre-albumin / Crohns: Yes depending on level of inflammation in crohns disease. As a gastroenterologist I use pre-albumin in conjunction with other blood tests to see how my patients are responding to therapy. If inflammation is poorly controlled pre-albumin is usually low.
