Identification of genetic risk factors for albuminuria may alter strategies for early prevention
of CKD progression, particularly among patients with diabetes. Little is known about the
influence of common genetic variants on albuminuria in both general and diabetic
populations. We performed a meta-analysis of data from 63,153 individuals of European
ancestry with genotype information from genome-wide association studies (CKDGen
Consortium) and from a large candidate gene study (CARe Consortium) to identify …
