The association between serum albumin/prealbumin level and disease severity in non-CF bronchiectasis.

In conclusion, BMI, albumin and prealbumin showed a significant correlation with the BSI, FACED, as well as patients' clinical symptoms. Among them, serum albumin was the indicator most strongly associated with the BSI and questionnaires, while prealbumin could better reflect lung function decline and radiological severity.
