Microalbuminuria, defined as 30–300 mg/day of albumin excretion in the urine, occurs rapidly after an acute inflammatory insult such as sepsis and persists in patients with complications.[8–13] It is a common finding in critically ill patients, where it has shown promise not only as a predictor of organ failure and vasopressor requirement but of mortality, fairing better than Acute Physiological and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II score and Sequential Organ Function Assessment (SOFA) scores.[14–19]. The gene discussed is ALB; the disease is Sepsis.
