Relationship of serum neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio with diabetic retinopathy / 中国糖尿病杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the association between serum neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and DR in T2DM patients . Methods A total of 128 T2DM patients were recruited and divided into three groups :PDR group (n=22) ,NPDR group(n= 44) ,and simple T2DM group(n=62) .The levels of FPG ,HbA1 c ,TC ,TG and NLR were measured in each group . Results Spearman correlation analysis revealed that DR was positively correlated with T 2DM duration ,SBP ,DBP ,FPG ,HbA1 c ,TC , TG ,LDL‐C ,NLR ,CKD (r= 0.524 ,0.277 ,0.279 ,0.194 ,0.271 ,0.208 ,0.223 ,0.358 ,0.621 , 0.362 ,P<0 .05 or P<0 .01) .Logistic multiple regression analysis showed that ,T2DM duration ,NLR and CKD were independent risk factors for DR . Conclusion NLR level is associated with DR .
