Optimization of 25% Sulfosalicylic Acid Protein-to-Creatinine Ratio for Screening of Low-Grade Proteinuria

Table 3

Patient data for the calculation of performance characteristics of the 25% sulfosalicylic acid protein concentration versus pyrogallol red protein concentration.

Diseased (PGR protein value ≥20 mg/dL)Nondiseased (PGR protein value <20 mg/dL)

25% SSA (protein value ≥20 mg/dL)451
25% SSA (protein value <20 mg/dL)728

SSA: sulfosalicylic acid. PGR: pyrogallol red.
