Question
During the company’s health check, the blood test results showed an abnormal albumin to globulin ratio of 2.9. What diseases might this situation indicate? Does it suggest the presence of inflammation or other serious health issues?
Answer
An elevated albumin to globulin ratio is typically an indicator of poor liver function. When the liver is damaged, globulin levels may rise while albumin levels may drop, leading to an increased albumin to globulin ratio. This phenomenon is believed to be associated with liver damage and may be caused by abnormal levels of albumin and globulin. It is advisable to visit a hospital for further examination, especially liver function tests, and consider antiviral treatment and liver protective measures to improve related symptoms.
