Zusammenfassung: | Background:
Lipid abnormalities in albuminuria in patients with Type 2 diabetes differ by race.
Aim:
To perform a biochemical investigation of association between dyslipidemia and albuminuria in Type 2 diabetes in Taiwan.
Materials/subjects and methods:
We recruited a total of 2349 Chinese patients with Type 2 diabetes from two medical centers in Taiwan over a 1-yr period. Patients were categorized into those with normoalbuminuria, microalbuminuria, and macro-albuminuria defined as albumin-to-creatinine ratio of |
