Journal Article
Anyanwagu, U., Donnelly, R., & Idris, I. (2019). Albuminuria regression and all-cause mortality among insulin-treated patients with Type 2 diabetes: analysis of a large UK Primary Care cohort. American Journal of Nephrology, 49(2), 146-155. https://doi.org/10.1159/000496276

Background: Overt albuminuria (urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR) >300mg/g) is an established risk factor for progression of nephropathy and total mortality. However, whether, a reduction in ACR translates into a reduction in mortality and/or car...
