Content not clear!

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

These results are not clear. I suggest that you upload them as an attachment. This way, there will be no distortion.

However, values of microalbuminuria/creatinine ratio less than 30 are considered normal. More than 30, warrants review and management. This is very important in persons with diabetes and hypertension.

I do promise to get back to you with more insights and helpful recommendations as soon as the requested information gets here.

Waiting for your response.
