ABSTRACT
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE Association between type 2 diabetes mellitus and inflammation is well-established. We aimed to study platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), a novel inflammatory index derived from hemogram, in diabetic patients in comparison to those in healthy volunteers. METHODS Medical data of type 2 diabetics that showed up in general outpatient medical clinics of our institution between February 2017 and August 2017 were recorded and analyzed. RESULTS Median PLR of type 2 diabetic patients was significantly higher than the PLR of healthy controls (p=0.001). Moreover, PLR was significantly and positively correlated with HbA1c (p<0.001, r=0.58), fasting plasma glucose (p<0.001, r=0.49), and c-reactive protein (p=0.003, r=0.30) levels. Type 2 diabetic subjects with proteinuria had significantly higher PLR levels than that of diabetic subjects without proteinuria. CONCLUSION As an inexpensive and easy to use index, PLR may be useful in predicting the development and control levels of type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, its correlation with HbA1c needs to be validated by larger prospective studies.
RESUMO
RESUMO OBJETIVO A associação entre diabetes mellitus tipo 2 e inflamação está bem estabelecida. Pretendemos estudar a relação plaquetária com linfócitos (PLR), um novo índice inflamatório derivado do hemograma, em pacientes diabéticos e comparar com aqueles em voluntários saudáveis. MÉTODOS Foram registrados e analisados dados médicos de diabéticos de tipo 2 que apareceram em clínicas ambulatoriais de medicina geral de nossa instituição entre fevereiro de 2017 e agosto de 2017. RESULTADOS A PLR mediana dos pacientes com diabetes tipo 2 foi significativamente maior que a PLR de controles saudáveis (p=0,001). Além disso, a PLR foi correlacionada de forma significativa e positiva com os níveis de glicemia de jejum (p<0,001, r=0,49) e níveis de proteína c-reativa (p=0,003, r=0,30) com HbA1c (p<0,001, r=0,58). Os indivíduos diabéticos de tipo 2 com proteinúria aumentaram significativamente os níveis de PLR do que os indivíduos diabéticos sem proteinúria. CONCLUSÃO Como um índice barato e fácil de usar, a PLR pode ser útil para prever o desenvolvimento e controle do nível de diabetes mellitus tipo 2. No entanto, sua correlação com HbA1c precisa ser validada por estudos prospectivos maiores.
