Description:

A paper appearing in the October 2019 issue of Clinical Chemistry found that fragments of proCNP could be measured in urine from subjects with diabetes mellitus.  The urinary NT-proCNP to creatinine ratio was also more reproduceable than the now commonly used albumin to creatinine ratio and strongly associated with the presence of chronic kidney disease.
