Calculate Urine Albumin/Creatinine ratio from Dipstick Urinalysis Protein

Description

Estimated urine albumin creatinine ratio by converting urine protein/creatinine measurement, or by estimation from dipstick urinalysis (negative, trace, +, ++, +++). methods described in Sumida et al. Annals Int Med. 202.

Usage

calculate_uacr_from_ua(ua_protein, gender, diabetic = NA, hypertensive = NA)

Arguments

ua_protein	Dipstick UA protein result (negative, trace, +, ++, +++)
gender	Gender (Female/Male)
diabetic	Diabetic (T/F)
hypertensive	Hypertensive (T/F) using prior cutoff of >140/90 or on meds
PCR_units	urine Protein/creatinine units ("mg/g" default)

Value

Dataframe with predicted ACR (pACR) and estimated error

Examples

# calculate_uacr_from_ua(ua_protein = "trace", gender = "female", diabetic = T, hypertensive = T)
calculate_uacr_from_ua(ua_protein = "+", gender = "female", diabetic = T, hypertensive = T)
calculate_uacr_from_ua(ua_protein = "++", gender = "female", diabetic = T, hypertensive = T)
calculate_uacr_from_ua(ua_protein = "+++", gender = "female", diabetic = T, hypertensive = T)

calculate_uacr_from_ua(ua_protein = "trace", gender = "male", diabetic = T, hypertensive = T)
calculate_uacr_from_ua(ua_protein = "+", gender = "male", diabetic = T, hypertensive = T)
calculate_uacr_from_ua(ua_protein = "++", gender = "male", diabetic = T, hypertensive = T)
calculate_uacr_from_ua(ua_protein = "+++", gender = "male", diabetic = T, hypertensive = T)
