Elevated urinary N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase is associated with high glycoalbumin-to-hemoglobin A1c ratio in type 1 diabetes patients with early diabetic kidney disease

Abstract Urinary N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (uNAG) predicted the progression of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) prior to development of albuminuria in diabetes patients. We sought whether uNAG level is associated with glycoalbumin-to-hemoglobin A1c ratio (G/A ratio), a marker of postprandial hypergl...
