Abstract

Microalbuminuria (MA) has been shown to be an early biomarker of renal damage. It is postulated that MA is the early result of hyperfiltration, which could evolve into glomerular sclerosis and renal failure if hyperfiltration is left untreated. We hypothesized that MA is a good indicator of hyperfiltration in children with kidney disorders, obviating the need to calculate the filtration fraction (FF).
