Line graph showing an increase in shunt magnitude at higher levels of
fractional clearance of albumin and albumin-to-creatinine ratio

FIGURE 10.

Graph of the Shunt Magnitude as a Function of Albuminuria.

The shunt magnitude parameter (ω0) as a function of albuminuria, as reflected by (Panel A) the fractional clearance of albumin and (Panel B) the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (A/C), for the combined moderate (○) and severe (▴) albuminuria groups (n=73). The shaded bar represents the 25th–75th percentiles of the ω0 distribution of normoalbuminuric control subjects.
