Abstract: | Twenty-four hour urinary albumin excretion (UAE) is considered as gold standard method for albuminuria measurement, but collection
of 24-h urine is inconvenient. The aim of present study was to evaluate whether albumin: creatinine ratio (ACR) and urinary
albumin concentration (UAC) in different spot urine samples correlate or not with 24-h UAE for screening of microalbuminuria
in type 2 diabetic patients. We collected first morning void (FMV), random urine sample (RUS) and 24-h urine, separately on
consecutive days from 104 type 2 diabetic patients. ACR and UAC in each spot urine sample compared with 24-h UAE with regard
to Pearson correlation coefficient. Pearson’s correlation of albumin: creatinine ratio (ACR) with 24-h UAE was (r = 0.802 and 0.623) in first morning void (FMV) and random urine sample (RUS), respectively. Pearson’s correlation coefficient
of urinary albumin concentration (UAC) compared with 24-h UAE was (r = 0.943 and 0.920), in FMV and RUS, respectively, P < 0.01. Results revealed that values in first morning void (FMV) were better correlated with 24-h urinary albumin excretion
(UAE), than the values in random urine sample (RUS). We conclude that the first morning void (FMV) may be able to replace
24-h urine collection, preferably urinary albumin concentration (UAC) in the initial screening of microalbuminuria in diabetic
patients. |
