Presence of serum albumin (protein) in the urine.<\/p>\n

Abnormally high amounts of the protein albumin in the urine. Excessive levels of protein in the urine usually result from damage to the glomeruli (the filtering units of the kidneys).

The presence of serum albumin, serum globulin, or other serum proteins in the urine. This may be associated with kidney or heart disease. Albuminuria is not always associated with disease: it may occur after strenuous exercise or after a long period of standing.<\/p>\n

The presence of easily detectable amounts of serum albumin in the urine. Albuminuria is a common sign of renal impairment (nephrotic syndrome and other kidney disorders); it also occurs in fever, malignant hypertension, and in healthy people after vigorous exercise (among other conditions).<\/p>\n

The occurrence of albumin, a protein, in the urine is referred to as albuminuria, a specific form of proteinuria. Under normal circumstances, the glomeruli, which serve as the filtering units of the kidneys, prevent the passage of albumin into the urine. Thus, the presence of albuminuria usually indicates impairment in the kidney’s filtration mechanisms. This impairment can stem from various kidney disorders, such as glomerulonephritis or nephrotic syndrome, or it may signify kidney damage resulting from hypertension. In the case of diabetes mellitus, even minimal amounts of albumin in the urine (referred to as microalbuminuria) serve as an early indicator of kidney damage. The detection of albuminuria can be achieved through a simple urine test.<\/p>\n
