Microalbuminuria is defined as small elevations of urinary albumin excretion not detected by conventional tests. It is associated with elevated arterial pressure, proliferative retinopathy, lipoprotein abnormalities and left ventricular hypertrophy and is predictive of later diabetic nephropathy. Improved glycaemic control and antihypertensive treatment lower urinary albumin excretion but it is not known whether these manoeuvres affect long-term outcome.
