Fig. 2: Serum albumin and weight loss.

Linear regression analysis of trends in weight change predicted by serum albumin in patients with BC who provided muscle biopsies and at least one serum albumin measurement. Gray dots represent individual patients; gray shading represents 95% confidence interval of the black regression line, with marginal kernel density plots provided for both variables (a n = 51). Linear regression analysis of trends in weight change predicted by serum albumin in a retrospective chart review of patients with BC. Gray dots represent individual patients; gray shading represents 95% confidence interval of the black regression line, with marginal kernel density plots provided for both variables (b n = 3001). Histogram representing individualized rate of weight change in a retrospective chart review of patients with BC, with patients grouped by serum albumin level (c nlow = 442, nnormal = 2557).
