Obesity promotes chronic kidney disease and albuminuria. Whether weight-adjusted-waist index (WWI) is correlated with albuminuria reflected by urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) in normal body mass index (BMI) population and the effect of hypertension and hyperglycemia on the association rem...
