At the univariate level, a raised urine-albumin level in school-children was found to be highly associated with micro-haematuria (OR = 138.7, P<0.0001), suffering UTPs (OR = 7.1, P<0.0001), more particularly presenting with bladder (OR = 7.6, P<0.0001) and ureteral pathologies (OR = 7.4, P = 0.022), and with being parasitologically positive for urinary schistosomiasis (OR = 26.0, P<0.0001) (see Table 4, which includes the CI95 for the odds ratios). The gene discussed is ALB; the disease is urinary schistosomiasis.
