“…The term microalbuminuria is defined by a urinary albumin excretion (UAE) rate higher than normal but lower than 200 μg/min, the lowest detection limit of proteinuria as measured by standard laboratory methods in the absence of urinary tract infection and acute illness including myocardial infarction [5]. A diagnosis of microalbuminuria can be made by measuring its excretion rate during 24 hours or in an overnight urine collection, or by measuring albumin/creatinine ratio or albumin concentration in the morning or a random urine sample [6]. Determination of UAE in the morning urine sample constitutes the ideal test for screening, and overnight urine collection might be the best choice for monitoring microalbuminuria.…”

“…8 ACE inhibitors competitively block RAAS system, decrease glomerular capillary pressure and slow progression from microalbuminuria to gross proteinuria. 9 . Recently, a number of studies have also indicated ACE inhibitors also decrease levels of advanced glycation endproducts (AGE) 10 , a major factor in development of diabetic nephropathy.…”
