The Impact of Creatinine Clearance Rate, Daily Urinary Albumin, and Their Joint Effect on Predicting Death in Diabetic Inpatients After Discharge: An Observational Study

Renal clearance function and urinary albumin excretion are important markers for diabetic nephropathy. We assessed whether the creatinine clearance rate (CCR) and daily urinary albumin (DUA) excretion, which both require 24-hour urine data, are better predictors of mortality in diabetic inpatients c...
