Correlation of blood uric acid with urinary albumin creatinine ratio in hypertension and diabetic nephropathy

Future studies with huge sample size are necessary to evaluate UA and ACR as the genuine markers, which help clinicians to assess the kidney failure in diabetes with these routine biochemical markers.
