Regression to normal albuminuria occurred more often with ACE inhibitors than with placebo (OR = 3.07 95% CI, 2.14 to 4.44). Nine of the 10 trials demonstrated a significantly lower risk of progression to macroalbuminuria with ACE inhibitors compared with placebo (odds ratio = 0.38 95% confidence interval, 0.25 to 0.57).

Two-year follow-up data were available for 646 patients. 1 Several definitions of normotension were allowed microalbuminuria was defined as a urinary albumin excretion rate of 20 to 200 mcg per minute, whereas a rate greater than 200 mcg per minute was considered macroalbuminuria. placebo on progression to macro-albuminuria in normotensive patients with microalbuminuria and type 1 diabetes.

A 2001 meta-analysis of 10 small RCTs (N = 698) described the effect of ACE inhibitors vs.
