Dear colleagues,
In relation to discriminator values and reference values of the
albumin/creat ratio in urine, I would like to mention the article:
Bakker AJ, Detection of microalbuminuria, Receiver operating
characteristic curve analysis favors albumin-to-creatinine ratio over
albumin concentration, Diabetes Care, 22:307-313. This article
contains sex and age related reference values and cut-off values
with their corresponding sensitivity and specificity.
Best regards,
Christian
