In a nationally representative sample of relatively healthy community-dwelling adults, higher levels of albuminuria in the conventionally "normal" range <30 mg/g in healthy individuals are associated with greater mortality. Overall, our findings contribute to the growing body of evidence on the existence of a risk gradient across all levels of albuminuria, even in the so-called normal range.
