Kwashiorkor is primarily diagnosed through clinical evaluations, but lab tests can support the diagnosis. Key laboratory findings often include low serum albumin levels (typically below 2.8 g/dL), which indicate protein deficiency, and hypoalbuminemia can lead to edema. Other tests may reveal low levels of total protein, anemia, and electrolyte imbalances. Additionally, elevated liver enzymes may be present due to liver dysfunction associated with malnutrition.
