persistent microalbuminuria is predictive of nephropathy in patients with type i diabetes mellitus (dm) and has led to the development of screening programs and intervention studies. we report a longitudinal evaluation of urinary albumin excretion in 118 children with type i dm, attending a single clinic over a period of seven years. collected blood and urine samples were analyzed for glycated ...

Studies in the Western literature show a linear relationship between degree of microalbuminuria and body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, and duration of diabetes. This study was aimed to determine the correlation of microalbuminuria with age, sex, duration of diabetes, BMI, and creatinine clearance in type-2 diabetics in Indian population. One hundred patients (59 males and 41 females) with t...

Background Sickle cell nephropathy is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in sickle cell anaemia (SCA). Proteinuria contributes to progression of renal damage. Icroalbuminuria is an early feature of SCN and progression to advanced kidney damage is delayed if regression is achieved with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors. We aimed to ...

Microalbuminuria is a strong and independent indicator of increased cardiovascular risk among individuals with and without diabetes. Therefore, microalbuminuria can be used for stratification of risk for cardiovascular disease. Once microalbuminuria is present, cardiovascular risk factor reduction should be more "aggressive." The nature of the link between microalbuminuria and cardiovascular ri...

Microalbuminuria is associated with progression to renal disease in insulin-dependent diabetes and with increased mortality in noninsulin-dependent diabetes. In contrast, few studies have addressed the effect of microalbuminuria on cardiovascular risk in nondiabetics. We, therefore, determined the level of microalbuminuria in 316 nondiabetic subjects from the San Antonio Heart Study, a populati...

Objective: To determine frequency of microalbuminuria and relative determination glycated hemoglobin (HBA1C) in Type II diabetes mellitus patients. Study Design: Descriptive Cross Sectional. Setting: Three Different Hospitals Based Sindh Pakistan. Period: March-August 2021. Material & Methods: After selection through non-probability purposive sample technique, demographic details all patien...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Microalbuminuria, a marker of both kidney disease and endothelial dysfunction, may be associated with global vascular risk, but the nature and magnitude of the link between microalbuminuria and incident stroke has not been clearly defined. The purpose of this study was to assess the consistency and strength of the association of microalbuminuria with risk of stroke in pro...

OBJECTIVE To describe the natural history and risk factors for persistent microalbuminuria in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes followed for up to 15 years. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This study contained a longitudinal cohort of 972 patients; analysis of baseline risk factors was performed using logistic regression and predictors over time using survival analysis. Albumin excret...

INTRODUCTION The patient with a solitary kidney and free protein intake can present pathological microalbuminuria. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of Enalapril in patients with single kidney and with or without normoprotein diet. MATERIALS AND METHODS We studied 49 patients, mean age 11 years, eutrophics, with normal renal function and with approved medical consent. The exclusion criteri...
