Key result
Abnormal urinary albumin excretion was significantly associated with renal insufficiency in patients with essential hypertension (OR 1.86; 95% CI 1.60-2.17).
Cross-Sectional (n=6,227)
Yes
Odds Ratio: 1.86 (95% CI 1.6–2.17)
In patients with essential hypertension, worsening glucose metabolism abnormalities are associated with a stepwise increase in abnormal urinary albumin excretion and renal insufficiency.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Higher UAE prevalence with impaired glucose in hypertension signals monitoring need; leaves open causal links and outcome impact.
Redón et al. (2006) conducted a cross-sectional in Essential hypertension (n=6,227). Abnormal urinary albumin excretion (≥3.4 mg/mmol) vs. Normal urinary albumin excretion was evaluated on Renal insufficiency (GFR <60 ml/min per 1.73 m2) (OR 1.86, 95% CI 1.60 to 2.17). Abnormal urinary albumin excretion was significantly associated with renal insufficiency in patients with essential hypertension (OR 1.86; 95% CI 1.60-2.17).
