Albumin-to-creatinine ratio strip

Albumin-to-creatinine ratio strip increases sensitivity for detecting UACR > 300 mg/g in humans (95% (95% CI 90–100%) versus 79% (95% CI 70–88%)).

“UACR > 300 mg/g (95% [95%CI: 90-100%] vs. 79% [95%CI: 70-88%], p = 0.001)”

HumansAt least one CKD risk factor; compared with total protein stripurinen = 410

Albumin-to-creatinine ratio strip increases sensitivity for detecting UACR 30-300 mg/g in humans (56% (95% CI 47–65%) versus 36% (95% CI 27–45%)).

“UACR 30-300 mg/g (56% [95%CI: 47-65%] vs. 36% [95%CI: 27-45%], p = 0.009)”

HumansAt least one CKD risk factor; compared with total protein stripurinen = 410

Albumin-to-creatinine ratio strip increases sensitivity for detecting UACR ≥ 30 mg/g in humans (95% (95% CI 92–98%) versus 64% (95% CI 57–71%)).

“S12 showed greater sensitivity than S10 for detecting UACR ≥ 30 mg/g (95% [95%CI: 92-98%] vs. 64% [95%CI: 57-71%], p < 0.001)”
