It is well known that retention of sodium and water is a key factor in the pathogenesis of ascites. Based on this, we believe that the reflection seems interesting and the hypothesis about the influence of the sodium content of albumin preparations on the results is theoretically feasible. However, we think that the impact would not be too relevant when compared to other mentioned contributing factors such as different study populations, diuretic management or albumin treatment patterns.
