Likelihood of DKD based on UACR and GFR [3].

		Albuminuria
GFR*	CKD Stage†	None‡	UACR 30-299 mg/g	UACR ≥300 mg/g
>60	1+2	At risk	Possible DKD	DKD
30–60	3	Unlikely DKD	Possible DKD	DKD
<30	4+5	Unlikely DKD	Unlikely DKD	DKD

*GFR expressed in mL/min.

^†The NKF recommends using albuminuria data before initiation of RAAS inhibitor therapy to determine the staging.

^‡UACR <30 mg/g.

CKD, chronic kidney disease; DKD, diabetic kidney disease; GFR, glomerular filtration rate; UACR, urine albumin to creatinine ratio.
