Detailed explanation-1: -Microalbuminuria (MAU), which is the presence of high levels of microalbumin in urine, has been linked to kidney damage or chronic kidney disease (CKD) [1, 2]. The presence of microalbumin in urine can therefore be an important marker for cardiovascular and renal risk in diabetes mellitus [3].
Detailed explanation-2: -The two key markers for CKD are urine albumin and eGFR. To screen for CKD: assess urine albumin excretion to diagnose and monitor kidney damage.
Detailed explanation-3: -A urine microalbumin test is a test to detect very small levels of a blood protein (albumin) in your urine. A microalbumin test is used to detect early signs of kidney damage in people who are at risk of developing kidney disease.
Detailed explanation-4: -Albumin can also be measured using a blood test or another urine test, called the protein urine test . In rare cases, you will have to collect all of your urine at home for 24 hours . To make the test more accurate, urine creatinine level may also be measured. More items •19-Aug-2018
