Description

Reynes et al listed criteria for tubular and glomerular proteinuria based on studies performed on a spot urine. The authors are from Montpellier University in France.


 

Patient population: HIV-positive with eGFR >= 60 mL/min per 1.73 square meter

 

Specimen: spot urine

 

Parameters:

(1) urine protein in mg/L

(2) urine albumin in mg/L

(3) urine creatinine in g/L

 

urine protein to creatinine ratio in mg protein per g creatinine =

= (urine protein) / (urine creatinine)

 

urine albumin to creatinine ratio in mg albumin per g creatinine =

= (urine albumin) / (urine creatinine)

 

urine albumin to protein ratio =

= (urine albumin) / (urine protein)

 

Urine Protein to Creatinine Ratio

Urine Albumin to Creatinine Ratio

Urine Albumin to Protein Ratio

Proteinuria

>= 200 mg/g

NA

>= 0.4

glomerular

NA

>= 30 mg/g

>= 0.4

glomerular

>= 200 mg/g

NA

< 0.4

tubular

 

where:

• Creatinine in g/L is equal to (mg/dL) divided by 100.
