Article Synopsis
- - Proteinuria and albuminuria are crucial indicators of kidney health and can help assess the risk of cardiovascular issues in both diabetic and non-diabetic individuals.
- - A study analyzing 245 diabetic patients revealed a significant linear correlation between proteinuria levels between 162-300 mg/24 hours and albuminuria, with a new cutoff established at 160.5 mg/24 hours for abnormal proteinuria.
- - Findings suggest that while proteinuria below 300 mg/24 hours is important, it shouldn't be the only predictor for kidney failure, as changes in creatinine clearance were only linked to albuminuria levels.
