Prediabetes and Risk of Glomerular Hyperfiltration and Albuminuria in the General Nondiabetic Population: A Prospective Cohort Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-12-29)
Background: The role of prediabetes as a risk factor for hyperfiltration and albuminuria in persons who do
not develop diabetes is unclear. The lack of evidence is mainly due to the difficulty of accurately assessing the
glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in the near-normal range of GFR. We investigated whether prediabetes is an
independent risk factor for glomerular hyperfiltration and high-normal ...
N-Acetyl-β-D-Glucosaminidase Does Not Enhance Prediction of Cardiovascular or All-Cause Mortality by Albuminuria in a Low-Risk Population
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-06-05)
Albuminuria is a well known risk factor for cardiovascular disease and mortality, but focus on renal tubular dysfunction as a potential risk factor is growing also. The association between the urinary activity of N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) and cardiovascular risk has been assessed mostly in cross-sectional studies. We studied the cross-sectional associations between urinary NAG and cardiovascular ...
