Low muscular mass and overestimation of microalbuminuria by urinary albumin/creatinine ratio.

Microalbuminuria is a mild urinary albumin elevation and is associated with cardiovascular disease. Urinary albumin/creatinine ratio is recommended for microalbuminuria assessment, because it reflects urinary albumin excretion. Muscular mass could affect albumin/creatinine ratio, because urinary creatinine reflects muscular mass. The study investigated high albumin/creatinine ratio attributed t...

Evaluation of a rapid screening test for microalbuminuria with a spot measurement of urine albumin-creatinine ratio.

INTRODUCTION Microalbuminuria has been established as a marker of incipient diabetic nephropathy, and a regular screening programme has been advocated in patients with diabetes mellitus. We investigated if urine albumin levels normalised by creatinine give results comparable to the urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER) with a timed 24-h urine for detecting microalbuminuria. MATERIALS AND METH...

Association of the Type and Amount of Dietary Proteins with Microalbuminuria: Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study

Introduction: Microalbuminuria is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease and is associated with all-cause mortality. The present study aimed to investigate the possible association between different types and amounts of dietary protein and microalbuminuria among Iranian adults participating in the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study (TLGS). Materials and Methods: Adults (1192 men and ...

Physical activity alters urinary albumin/ creatinine ratio in type 1 diabetic patient.

While the best way to identify microalbuminuria is to determine albumin excretion rate (AER) in a 24 h urine sample. Published data have shown that calculation of an albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR) in a spot urine sample has reasonable rate of sensitivity and specificity. We aimed to evaluate the effect of daily exercise on ACR and estimate the best time for the examination of the ACR in a spot ...

Microalbuminuria in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

OBJECTIVES To assess (a) the prevalence of microalbuminuria in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, (b) the association between urinary albumin excretion and disease activity as estimated by the erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C reactive protein (CRP), and (c) the association between urinary albumin excretion and treatment with antirheumatic drugs. METHODS Sixty five patients with rheumatoi...
