Urinary Angiopoietin-2 Is Associated with Albuminuria in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Figure 2

Correlation analysis for serum Ang-2 and urinary Ang-2 with urinary VEGF, UAER, and serum creatinine. Serum Ang-2 level correlated positively with urinary VEGF (a), UAER (b), and serum creatinine (c). Similarly, Urinary Ang-2 correlated positively with urinary VEGF (d), UAER (e), and serum creatinine (f). Ang-2: angiopoietin 2; VEGF: vascular endothelial growth factor; UAER: urinary albumin excretion rate; Cr: creatinine.
