Comparison of characteristics between two groups classified by UACR.

IMT and distribution of carotid plaque number in non-diabetic subjects with normal kidney function.
UACR, urine albumin to urine creatinine ratio; IMT, intima-media thickness.(A) The subjects with high normal UACR had significantly greater IMT than those with low-normal UACR (p < 0.001). (B) A significant positive correlation with UACR was observed for prevalence of carotid plaque (p = 0.027).
