Blood urea nitrogen to serum albumin ratio independently predicts mortality and severity of community-acquired pneumonia

BACKGROUND: Early studies of community-acquired pneumonia showed that nonsurvivors had higher blood urea nitrogen levels and lower serum albumin levels than survivors. Therefore, elevation of the blood urea nitrogen to serum albumin (B/A) ratio may identify patients with community-acquired pneumonia...
