Abstract

Abstract It remains uncertain whether albuminuria can identify elderly patients with diabetes at a high risk of incident end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) or mortality. 3065 patients (aged ≥ 65 years) with type 2 diabetes were included. We examined the association between albuminuria stages (normoalbuminuria, A1; microalbuminuria, A2; and macroalbuminuria, A3) and the risk of incident ESKD and all-cause mortality for each age group (65–69, 70–74, and ≥ 75 years). A2 and A3 were observed in 25.5% and 9.4% of the subjects, respectively. For A1, A2, and A3, the probabilities of ESKD at 8 years were 1.0%, 6.3%, and 29.7% (P
