description: | Albuminuria is associated with atherothrombotic events and all-cause mortality in patients with and without diabetes. However, it is not known whether albuminuria is associated with atherosclerosis per se in the same manner. The present study included 914 consecutive white patients who had been referred for coronary angiography for the evaluation of established or suspected stable coronary artery disease (CAD). Albuminuria was defined as a urinary albumin/creatinine ratio ≥30 μg/mg. Microalbuminuria was defined as 30 to 300 μg albumin/mg creatinine, and macroalbuminuria as a urinary albumin/creatinine ratio of ≥300 μg/mg. The prevalence of stenoses of ≥50% was significantly greater in patients with albuminuria than in those with normoalbuminuria (66% vs 51%; p |
