Background: Microalbuminuria is an early marker of diabetic nephropathy and an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. In the Diabetes Atherosclerosis Intervention Study (DAIS), treatment of people with type 2 diabetes with micronized fenofibrate for an average of 38 months reduced the progression of angiographically evaluated coronary artery disease and improved lipoprotein level abnormalities compared with placebo. The aim of this analysis is to study the influence of the treatment on changes in urinary albumin excretion. Methods: Microalbuminuria was measured on 2 to 3 occasions by using timed overnight samples at baseline and yearly thereafter in 314 DAIS participants (77 women, 237 men; average age, 56 years); all except 3 participants had either a normal albumin excretion rate (
