Microalbuminuria in Clinical Practice
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1991Albumin excretion rate measured by new immunoassays and semiquantitative tests is advocated as a means for early detection of diabetic nephropathy. We determined albumin excretion rate in 276 patients. Albumin excretion rate was normal in 66%, within the microalbuminuric range in 27%, and within the macroproteinuric range in 7%.

Mechanisms of microalbuminuria
Pathology, 2010There is currently a major debate on the mechanisms of albuminuria. The traditional view of albuminuria is that it is the result of damage to an essentially impermeable glomerular barrier. However, over the years, critical evidence for this traditional model has been shown to be flawed.

[Microalbuminuria in nondiabetic adults].
Giornale italiano di nefrologia : organo ufficiale della Societa italiana di nefrologia, 2002This paper deals with the clinical relevance of moderate increase in urinary albumin excretion, commonly known as microalbuminuria, in non-diabetic adults. Presently there are several definitions of microalbuminuria. When measuring excretion rates, microalbuminuria is defined by thresholds of 30 mg/day or 20 g/min with urine collections shorter than 24

Microalbuminuria and Cardiovascular Disease
1998The term microalbuminuria was first coined in 1969 by Keen and Chlouverakis in Guy’s Hospital Reports 1969 [1] when following the development of a radioimmunoassay to detect low concentrations of albumin in the urine [2], urinary albumin excretion rate (AER) was determined in a population of patients with type 2 diabetes.

Microalbuminuria in Essential Hypertension
American Journal of Hypertension, 1990Clinically apparent proteinuria in essential hypertension is associated with increased cardiovascular and total mortality and is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease. Subclinical elevation of urinary albumin excretion is seen more frequently than clinical proteinuria in essential hypertension and the levels of ...

Microalbuminuria: Accuracy or economics
American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 1998VER THE PAST several years, it has become clear that the determination of the presence of small but excessive amounts of albumin in the urine of patients with diabetes or hypertension is a harbinger of serious future renal and/or cardiovascular complications. The accurate determination of microalbuminuria gives the clinician an opportunity to intervene,
