Micro albuminuria was found to be more prevalent in male than in female while macro albuminuria patients were higher in female than in male. Microalbuminuria (MA) is defined as a persistent elevation of albumin in the urine of >30 to <300 mg/d (>20 to <200 microg/min). The prevalence of micro albuminuria was higher in male (25.71%) than the female subjects (25%). Subjects with diabetes and albuminuria are at high risks of all-cause mortality and end stage renal disease (ESRD). The percentage of hypertensive (60%) and macro albuminuria patients (8.33%) were higher in female subjects than the male subjects (hypertensive 25.71%) and macro albuminuria patients (2.86%). Albuminuria (urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio, UACR 30 mg/g creatinine) affects about one-third of diabetic patients. The association of albuminuria with subsequent ESRD, cardiovascular morbidity and. Patients were categorized according to ACR results as norm albuminuria (ACR = 20 mg/g Cr), micro albuminuria (ACR = 30–299 mg/g Cr), or macro albuminuria (ACR ≥300 mg/ g Cr). heritage were independently associated with micro- or macroalbuminuria.
The results for micro albuminuria were expressed as ACR (Albumin creatinine ratio/gram of creatinine). Spot urine sample from each subject was quantified for micro albumin and creatinine. The study was conducted on 118 subjects (Female: 48 & 70 male) aged 45-75 years. Place and Duration of Study: This study was carried out from Jan 2017 to Feb 2017 in Khyber Teaching Hospital (KTH), Peshawar Pakistan. To determine the frequency of micro albuminuria in the middle age and older population of both genders in Peshawar city of Pakistan. Micro albuminuria, Hypertension, Creatinine Abstract Islamia College University Peshawar Pakistan blockers (ARB) with either macro or micro-albuminuria, does continuing to measure patient’s urine albumin excretion on a regular basis improve clinical outcomes (progression of renal disease, chronic kidney disease, end-stage renal disease.
