    Fantastic. You mentioned a list of high and low SAAG associated diseases.... which of these diseases could be affected by a big meal/ alcohol/ coffee, sugar etc?

    I think the gradient should be 1.1 g/dl instead of mg/dl

    Portal vein thrombosis, as a pre-sinusoidal cause of PH, doesn’t usualy course with ascites in the absence of other predisposing factor, like hypoalbuminemia. Great lecture, tho! Thanks from 🇧🇷

    Dear doctor, how we can stop ascites,after tips procedure and replacing a stine in the liver?
    We did the tips procedure and our patien still has ascites. Doctors tell us, it is due to lack of albumin.
    Will she be OK?

    can you please tell me why saag is lower than 1.1 in nephrotic ascites

    • @RhesusMedicine
      @RhesusMedicine  4 года назад +7

      Hi! Thanks for your question. So a low SAAG tells us that the concentration of albumin in the circulation (serum) isn't so different from the concentration in the ascitic fluid. In nephrotic syndrome, the concentration of albumin in the circulation is likely to be low (hypoalbuminemia). Therefore, the difference between their Serum and Ascitic Albumin concentrations is more likely to be less than 1.1g/dL. As an example, a normal serum albumin concentration is about 3-5g/dL, If our patient has 2g/dL of serum albumin and 1.5g/dL Ascitic albumin, then they'd have a SAAG of 0.5g/dL, which is of course under 1.1. Hope that helps! 🤗

  • @nickwilliams7716

    Can somebody help me to understand. If high SAAG = high serum levels, why do we see low albumin serum levels in cirrhotic patients? Thanks in advance.

    • @alperenuzuncayr5210
      @alperenuzuncayr5210 Год назад +1

      High SAAG means high serum levels COMPARED TO ascites. Cirrhotic liver means liver is failing and can't do its normal function properly, can't produce properly normal blood proteins such as albumin, fibrinogen, complement proteins....
