Aims To examine the relationships between baseline characteristics and urinary albumin excretion in the extensively phe-notyped patients in the ALiskiren Observation of heart Failure Treatment (ALOFT) study. Methods and results Urinary albumin creatinine ratio (UACR) was available in 190 of 302 (63%) patients randomized in ALOFT. Of these, 107 (56%) had normal albumin excretion, 63 (33%) microalbuminuria, and 20 (11%) macroalbuminuria. Compared with patients with normoalbuminuria, those with microalbuminuria had a greater prevalence of diabetes (48 vs. 26%, P 0.005) and a lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (60.7 vs. 68.3 mL/min/1.73 m2, P 0.01)
