Albumin-Adjusted Anion Gap

Lower values go with lower risk of death. Not measured in our NHANES panel. The curve is drawn from the published study (source below).

Albumin-Adjusted Anion Gap by age and sex

Each bar runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile, the darker part from the 25th to the 75th, and the tick is the median. Not a reference range or a target.

The percentiles as a table

Each row is one sex and age band: the values below which 5%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 95% of people fall (mEq/L), from the survey named in the row. Not a reference range or a target.
