I am not sure I understand your question-- but if your kidney's are inflamed -
(such as in a condition known as "Nephrotic Syndrome"), Albumin will be passed into your urine abnormally and your plasma albumin will fall. As a result- your blood vessels become "leaky" and allow fluid to accumulate in your tissues causing swelling and edema. Hop[e this is helpful

I am not quite sure of your question but it will give it a try. Albumin is the major protein in your blood plasma and it is made by the liver. It is important with many functions including transporting fats, and other substances in the blood and maintaing osmotic pressure so fluids can get back into your circulation. Too little albumin can cause edema. It is important so it cannot be lost through the kidneys. There are kidney diseases like nephrotic and nephritic symdrome where the kidneys allow this precious protein to be lost in the urine, the kidneys normally do not pass proteins to any great extent. I hope this has helped you to understand the relationship to the kidneys.

albumin is a byproduct of the kidneys and is a marker in bloodwork to indicate when the kidneys are working properly or not. Look it up on google and it will tell you what the actual readings should be. Good luck.
