Microalbuminuria in subclinical target organ damage and its correlation to creatinine clearance ratio in hypertension

Background: Urinary albumin excretion has been purported to be strongly linked cardiovascular events in hypertensive patients. The prevalence of microalbuminuria patients with essential hypertension and its relationship target organ damage was evaluated the present study, as correlation except not deliberated upon much past. Objectives: To evaluate between reduced creatinine clearance subclinical asymptomatic nondiabetic Methodology: 120 cases were studied from January 2019 December 2020 Dr VRK Womens Medical College, Hyderabad. Cases for microalbuminuria, clearance, left ventricular hypertrophy retinopathy. Creatinine estimated by Cockcroft-Gault formula. Left determined ECG echocardiography. Retinal vascular changes direct ophthalmoscopy. Microalbuminuria detected 24 hours urine sample immunoturbidimetric, assay. Results: There significant association (30%) (38%) i.e. [p < 0.002 & p respectively] retinopathy 0.005 0.03 respectively]. Patients microalbumin had 30 times risk [95% CI: 3.6-253, 0.001] those 5.9 1.7-19.4, 0.0035] developing damage. But when together increased 39.4 2.2-703, 0.0124]. Conclusion: Results show that a reduction and/or presence is marker primary hypertension. showed better than clearance.
