A total of 32 samples were obtained by purposive sampling Results: The patient's mean glucose level was 48.95 ± 11.5 mg/dL and the patient's mean albumin level was 2.4 ± 0.6 g/dL. Bivariate analysis using Pearson's correlation test showed a correlation between albumin levels and glucose levels (p = 0.045 <0.05; r = 0.356). Conclusion: The conclusion is that there is a significant correlation between albumin levels and blood glucose levels, the direction of the positive correlation with the strength of the weak correlation in the endocrine internal medicine ward of the Ratu Zalecha Martapura Hospital.]]>
