Correlation Of Spot Urine Protein Creatinine Ratio With Angiographic Disease Severity In Non-Diabetic Stable Coronary Artery Disease
Abstract: Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a major cause of death and disability. Microalbuminuria, a marker of atherogenesis and early endothelial damage has been an emerging risk factor. This study aimed to correlate urine spot protein creatinine ratio with angiographic disease severity in non-diabetics with stable coronary artery disease. Methods: This was a single center prospective observational study which included 100 non-diabetic patients with stable CAD. Spot urine protein creatinine ratio was used to define Microalbuminuria (MA) (30-300mg/g creatinine), and severity of CAD was estimated using SYNTAX score and Modified Gensini score. Patients were divided into two groups: one group included patients with out MA and another group included patients with MA. Results: Out of 100 non-diabetic patients with stable coronary artery disease, 56 (56 %) were in MA negative group and 44 % were in MA positive group. The mean age of the study population was 58.65±9.7 years with majority of them being males (75 %). The prevalence of double vessel CAD and triple vessel CAD was significantly higher in MA positive group compared with the MA negative group (79.54 % vs 26.78 % p
