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
