Low circulating albumin closely predicts mortality in end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. The cause(s) of hypoalbuminemia (hALB) in ESRD patients remains to be elucidated. The aim of the present study was to determine the role of plasma volume (PV) withdrawal in the reduction of total circulating albumin and essential blood solutes induced by hemodialysis (HD).
