Low-grade albuminuria has been proposed as a cardiovascular risk factor that is below the conventional cut-off point for microalbuminuria, which has been previously identified as a marker for cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Metabolic syndrome has also been shown to be related with microalbuminuria and CKD. We assessed the relationship among low-grade albuminuria, CKD and metabolic syndrome among 5998 non-diabetic subjects. The subjects were divided into six groups: subjects with urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR)
