متن کاملUrine albumin to creatinine ratio-response to exercise in diabetes.
Albuminuria was studied in 40 diabetic children before and after a standardised exercise test, and also in 21 normal children; the results are expressed as geometric mean (95% range) of urine albumin:urine creatinine ratio (mg/mg). There was no significant difference between the mean resting albumin:creatinine ratio in the two groups, or between these ratios before and after exercise in the nor...
متن کاملInfluence of urine creatinine on the relationship between the albumin-to-creatinine ratio and cardiovascular events.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES In the albumin-to-creatinine ratio (spot-ACR), urine creatinine corrects for tonicity but also reflects muscle mass. Low muscle mass is associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD). We hypothesized that the spot-ACR would be higher in women, lower-weight persons, and older individuals, independent of timed urine albumin excretion (24hr-UAE), and accordingly, that spot-...

متن کاملAn effective indicator in predicting cardiovascular events: urine albumin to creatinine ratio.
OBJECTIVE To study elderly hypertensive patients with trace albuminuria (urine albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR)) and the relationship between the occurrence of new cardiovascular events, to provide a basis for early prevention in elderly patients with high blood pressure. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 3564 elderly patients with high blood pressure were enrolled in the study. Based on UACR...
