Urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio have predictive values for hypertension, diabetes mellitus, renal dysfunction etc. Albumin-to-creatinine ratio represents the severity of proteinuria, indicates high probability of damage to glomerular filtration capacity of the kidney and is of great diagnostic relevance. Emerging data suggested that reduction of albuminuria leads to reduced risk of adverse renal and cardiovascular events but also steps should be taken to suppress albuminuria to prevent future renal and cardiovascular adverse events. This review discusses the association between albuminuria and adverse cardiovascular and renal outcomes in type 2 diabetes and hypertension. This study aimed to review the association between normal ranges of urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio to cardiovascular and all-cause mortality.
