Fig. 1 Investigation of Log (urinary [angiotensinogen:creatinine]) (Log(UAGT/Ucre)) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus without nephropathy. Age, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) correlated significantly and positively with Log (UAGT/Ucre) ((A)–(C), respectively).

Fig. 2 Investigation of Log(urinary [angiotensinogen:creatinine]) (Log(UAGT/Ucre)) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease. Systolic blood pressure (SBP), serum creatinine, and urinary [albumin:creatinine] (UACR) correlated significantly and positively with Log (UAGT/Ucre) ((A)–(C), respectively). Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) correlated significantly and inversely with the Log (UAGT/Ucre) (D).
