Correlation between Body Mass Index (BMI) and Waist Circumference (W.C) With Urine Albumin Excretion in NonDiabetic Obese Subjects - A Cross Sectional Study

Abstract

.They had mean UACR 8.49 mg/gm+/-9.42 estimated by UACR in mg / g = Urine albumin (mg / dl) ----------------------------------Urine creatinine (g / dl). Calculated value is obtained from Beckman coulter Olympus AU 2700.Pearson correlation coefficient analysis revealed significant correlation between UACR and W.C (r=0.302(P < 0.001) and between UACR and BMI r = 0.23 (P =0.006
