Abstract
This study aimed to develop and validate distinct nomogram models for assessing CVD risk in individuals with prediabetes and diabetes. In a cross-sectional study design, we examined data from 2294 prediabetes and 1037 diabetics who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, which was conducted in the United States of America between 2007 and 2018. The dataset was randomly divided into training and validation cohorts at a ratio of 0.75-0.25. The Boruta feature selection method was used in the training cohort to identify optimal predictors for CVD diagnosis. A web-based dynamic nomogram was developed using the selected features, which were validated in the validation cohort. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test was performed to assess the nomogram's stability and performance. Receiver operating characteristics and calibration curves were used to assess the effectiveness of the nomogram. The clinical applicability of the nomogram was evaluated using decision curve analysis and clinical impact curves. In the prediabetes cohort, the CVD risk prediction nomogram included nine risk factors: age, smoking status, platelet/lymphocyte ratio, platelet count, white blood cell count, red cell distribution width, lactate dehydrogenase level, sleep disorder, and hypertension. In the diabetes cohort, the CVD risk prediction nomogram included eleven risk factors: age, material status, smoking status, systemic inflammatory response index, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, red cell distribution width, lactate dehydrogenase, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, sleep disorder, hypertension, and physical activity. The nomogram models developed in this study have good predictive and discriminant utility for predicting CVD risk in patients with prediabetes and diabetes.

Ann Med Surg (Lond) 2024; 86:3865-3872.

Abstract
Background Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is the most serious metabolic complication of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Insulin deficiency and inflammation play a role in the pathogenesis of DKA. The authors aimed to assess the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) as a marker of severity among T1DM patients with DKA and without infection. Methods The authors included T1DM patients older than or equal to 12 years hospitalized because of DKA. The authors excluded patients with infection or any condition that can change SII parameters or cause metabolic acidosis. The authors compared SII, neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) between severe and non-severe DKA groups. The authors also assessed the need for an ICU, length of stay, and 90-day readmission rate between the groups. Results The study included 241 patients with a median age of 17 (14, 24) years, and 44.8% were males. More patients with severe DKA (45%) required ICU admission (P<0.001). Median SII increased with DKA severity, and the difference was significant (P=0.033). No significant difference was observed as regards median NLR or PLR (P=0.380 and 0.852, respectively). SII, but not NLR or PLR, had a significant negative correlation with PH (r=-0.197, P=0.002) and HCO3 level (r=-0.144, P=0.026). Also, being in the highest SII quartile was an independent risk factor for DKA severity (OR, 2.522; 95% CI, 1.063-6.08; P=0.037). The authors estimated an SII cut-off value of 2524.24 to predict DKA severity with high specificity. Conclusion Elevated SII is a risk factor for DKA severity in T1DM. It is better than NLR and PLR in prognosticating DKA patients. These findings highlight the role of inflammation in DKA. SII can help as a valuable and simple tool to assess DKA severity.

Abstract
Background Inflammation is integral to diabetes pathogenesis. The novel hematological inflammatory biomarker, platelet to white blood cell ratio (PWR), is linked with various conditions such as chronic kidney disease and stroke. However, the association of this novel clinical indicator with diabetes still remains unclear, which is investigated in this study. Materials and Methods A total of 10,973 Chinese participants were included and grouped according to the tertiles of PWR (T1, T2, and T3 groups). Diagnosis of prediabetes and diabetes adhered to American Diabetes Association criteria. Binary logistic regression was adopted to assess the relationship between PWR and both diabetes and prediabetes. The dose-response relationship of PWR and diabetes was examined using restricted cubic spline regression. Subgroup and interaction analyses were conducted to investigate potential covariate interactions. Results Individuals with higher PWR had better lifestyles and lipid profiles (all P < 0.05). After adjusting for all the covariates, the T2 group had a 0.83-fold (95% CI: 0.73-0.93, P < 0.01) risk of diabetes and that for the T3 group was 0.68-fold (95% CI: 0.60-0.78. P < 0.001). Dose-response analysis identified non-linear PWR-diabetes associations in the general population and females (both P < 0.05), but absent in males. Participants with prediabetes in the T2 and T3 groups had lower risks of diabetes (OR = 0.80 for the T2 group, P < 0.001 and 0.68 for the T3 group, P < 0.001) in the full models. All the sensitivity analysis support consistent conclusions. Conclusions An increase in PWR significantly correlates with reduced diabetes risks. A non-linear PWR-diabetes relationship exists in the general population and females, but not in males. The correlation between PWR and diabetes indicates that PWR holds potentials in early identification and prevention of diabetes.

Abstract
Introduction Neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet/ lymphocyte ratio (PLR) are readily available and inexpensive biomarkers that have received great attention for diagnosing type 2 diabetes(T2DM) complications. The objective of the present cross-sectional study was to compare diagnostic values of these biomarkers with C-reactive protein(CRP) in detecting diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) and osteomyelitis (OS) and discriminating between the degree of DFU according to Wagner's classification. Methods A total of 217 individuals (42 healthy controls, 40 T2DM patients without DFU, and 135 patients with DFU) were enrolled. The DFU patients were classified according to Wagner's classification into grade 1, grade 2, and grade 3. Blood samples were obtained and various biochemical and hematological parameters including creatine, CRP, HbA1c, NLR, and PLR were measured. Results The levels of CRP, PLR, and NLR were significantly higher in the patients with DFU and OS compared to healthy controls and T2DM patients without DFU. The median values of CRP were correlated with the severity of DFU and increased with DFU grades. The highest values of CRP, NLR, and PLR were observed in the DFU patients with OS which were significantly higher than those of DFU patients with grades 1 and 2 as well as T2DM patients without DFU. The PLR and NLR had no significant performance in diagnosing DFU patients with grades 1 and 2 from the patients without DFU. Conclusion NLR and PLR could be useful for diagnosing OS but cannot be used for detecting lower grades of DFU. CRP showed higher performance in detecting OS compared to PLR and NLR.

Abstract
Background The primary aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between diabetic retinopathy (DR) and the HALP score (hemoglobin, albumin, lymphocyte, and platelet) in individuals with diabetes within the United States population. Methods This cross-sectional investigation was based on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database from 2003-2018. The following module calculated the HALP score: HALP score = [lymphocytes (/L) × hemoglobin (g/L) × albumin (g/L)]/platelets (/L). By performing the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, the optimal cutoff value of HALP was ascertained. Restricted cubic splines (RCS), multivariable logistic regression analysis, sensitivity analysis, and subgroup analysis were conducted to evaluate the effect of the HALP score on DR patients. Finally, the decision curve analysis (DCA) and clinical impact curve (CIC) were conducted to estimate the predictive power and clinical utility of the HALP score with clinical indicators. Results According to the cutoff value (42.9) determined by the ROC curve, the participants were stratified into a lower HALP group (HALPlow) and a higher HALP group (HALPhigh). An L-shaped relationship between HALP score and DR risk was presented in the RCS model (P for nonlinearity <0.001). The DR risk sharply decreased with the increase of HALP, and the decline reached a plateau when HALP was more than 42.9. After fully adjustment, the multivariate logistic regression analysis found that HALPlow was an independent risk factor for DR (OR = 1.363, 95% CI: 1.111-1.671, P < 0.001). Besides, sensitivity analysis showed consistent results. Furthermore, the combination of HALP score and clinical indicators demonstrated predictive power and clinical utility, as shown by the ROC curve, DCA, and CIC. Conclusion The HALP score has an L-shaped correlation with the risk of DR, and thus, the HALP score may contribute to the timely intervention of diabetes patients.

Diagnostics (Basel) 2024; 14:992. [PMID: 38786290 PMCID: PMC11120272 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics14100992] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2024] [Revised: 05/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/08/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to establish whether multiple blood parameters might predict an early treatment response to intravitreal bevacizumab injections in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME). Seventy-eight patients with non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) and DME were included. The treatment response was evaluated with central macular thickness decrease and best corrected visual acuity increase one month after the last bevacizumab injection. Parameters of interest were the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), vitamin D, and apolipoprotein B to A-I ratio (ApoB/ApoA-I). The NLR (2.03 ± 0.70 vs. 2.80 ± 1.08; p < 0.001), MLR (0.23 ± 0.06 vs. 0.28 ± 0.10; p = 0.011), PLR (107.4 ± 37.3 vs. 135.8 ± 58.0; p = 0.013), and SII (445.3 ± 166.3 vs. 675.3 ± 334.0; p < 0.001) were significantly different between responder and non-responder groups. Receiver operator characteristics analysis showed the NLR (AUC 0.778; 95% CI 0.669-0.864), PLR (AUC 0.628; 95% CI 0.511-0.735), MLR (AUC 0.653; 95% CI 0.536-0.757), and SII (AUC 0.709; 95% CI 0.595-0.806) could be predictors of response to bevacizumab in patients with DME and NPDR. Patients with severe NPDR had a significantly higher ApoB/ApoA-I ratio (0.70 (0.57-0.87) vs. 0.61 (0.49-0.72), p = 0.049) and lower vitamin D (52.45 (43.10-70.60) ng/mL vs. 40.05 (25.95-55.30) ng/mL, p = 0.025). Alterations in the NLR, PLR, MLR, and SII seem to provide prognostic information regarding the response to bevacizumab in patients with DME, whilst vitamin D deficiency and the ApoB/ApoA-I ratio could contribute to better staging.

BMC Endocr Disord 2024; 24:42. [PMID: 38528483 PMCID: PMC10962197 DOI: 10.1186/s12902-024-01564-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2023] [Accepted: 02/29/2024] [Indexed: 03/27/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Insulin resistance (IR) was a prominent feature commonly observed in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). T2DM Individuals often exhibited a concomitant presence of low-grade chronic inflammation. In this study conducted retrospectively, the aim was to investigate the connection between neutrophils-lymphocytes rate (NLR), monocytes-lymphocytes rate (MLR), platelets-lymphocytes rate (PLR) and IR, specifically among individuals with T2DM. METHOD This study encompassed a cohort of 405 individuals diagnosed with T2DM, comprising cases from January 2021 to November 2022. On the basis of whether there was IR or not, these sufferers were categorized into two cohorts, namely T2DM with IR group (292 cases) and T2DM without IR group (113 cases), as determined by a homeostasis model assessment-IR (HOMA-IR) value exceeding 2.0. RESULTS The findings of this study demonstrated compelling evidence of distinct biomarker profiles between individuals with T2DM who had IR and those without IR. Specifically, the IR individuals displayed notably raise NLR, MLR, PLR, C reactive protein (CRP) and serum amyloid A (SAA). Additionally, there was a noticeable decrease in superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels. Furthermore, IR was negatively correlated with SOD values, while positive associations were found between IR and NLR, CRP, and SAA levels (p < 0.05). Moreover, a rise in NLR and PLR levels demonstrated an identical relationship with the prevalence of IR (p = 0.007, p = 0.025, separately). The Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve demonstrated that the areas under the curve (AUC) for NLR, MLR, PLR, CRP, SAA and SOD in predicting occurrence of IR in T2DM patients were 0.603, 0.575, 0.581, 0.644, 0.594 and 0.632 respectively, with sensitivity of 79.5%, 95.2%, 46.9%,54.1% (or 51.4), 47.6% (or 45.7%) and 98.6% and specificity of 37.2%, 19.5%, 69.9%, 69% (or 71.7%), 71.6% (or 73.5%) and 23% respectively. CONCLUSION Our findings support the notion that higher magnitude of NLR, PLR, MLR, CRP, and SAA values, corresponded to lower SOD levels, indicating a more severe degree of IR in T2DM patients. Additionally, NLR, PLR, MLR, CRP, SAA, and SOD demonstrated predictive potential for assessing IR. Regrettably, due to the retrospective nature of this study, it was not feasible to take a measurement the majority of inflammatory factors and reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to examine independent association between inflammatory biomarkers and all-cause mortality as well as cardio-cerebrovascular disease (CCD) mortality among U.S. adults with diabetes. METHODS A cohort of 6412 U.S. adults aged 20 or older was followed from the start until December 31, 2019. Statistical models such as Cox proportional hazards model (Cox) and Kaplan-Meier (K-M) survival curves were employed to investigate the associations between the inflammatory biomarkers and all-cause mortality and CCD mortality. RESULTS After adjusting for confounding factors, the highest quartile of inflammatory biomarkers (NLR HR = 1.99; 95 % CI:1.54-2.57, MLR HR = 1.93; 95 % CI:1.46-2.54, SII HR = 1.49; 95 % CI:1.18-1.87, SIRI HR = 2.32; 95 % CI:1.81-2.96, nLPR HR = 2.05; 95 % CI:1.61-2.60, dNLR HR = 1.94; 95 % CI:1.51-2.49, AISI HR = 1.73; 95 % CI:1.4 1-2.12)) were positively associated with all-cause mortality compared to those in the lowest quartile. K-M survival curves indicated that participants with an inflammatory biomarker above a certain threshold had a higher risk of both all-cause mortality and CCD mortality (Log rank P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Some biomarkers such as NLR, MLR, SII, AISI, SIRI, and dNLR, are significantly associated with all-cause mortality and CCD mortality among U.S. adults with diabetes. The risk of both outcomes increased when the biomarkers surpassed a specific threshold.

[PMID: 37746907 PMCID: PMC10809301 DOI: 10.1111/1753-0407.13476] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2023] [Revised: 08/23/2023] [Accepted: 09/03/2023] [Indexed: 09/26/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of our investigation is to evaluate the level of relationship between lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and the occurrence of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in adults with diabetes mellitus (DM). METHODS The investigation involved an analysis of five sectional data cycles acquired from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2009 to 2018. The present study involved the selection of DM samples from a complex multistage probability sample. These samples were subsequently classified into two distinct groups, namely the No DR (NDR) and DR groups. The present study comprehensively investigated the biological and social risk factors associated with DR. The biological factors examined in this investigation included blood pressure, blood routine, hemoglobin A1c, blood glucose, and comorbidities. The social dimensions encompass education and sex. RESULTS After considering all factors, multivariate regression models indicated a significant relationship between DR and increased LDH (adjusted odds ratio = 1.007, 95% confidence interval: 1.003-1.011). The subgroup analysis revealed that the effect size of LDH on the existence of DR in the subgroups remained consistent, as indicated by all p values greater than .05. A statistically significant relationship was identified between elevated LDH levels > 134 U/L and a raised risk of DR in people with DM. CONCLUSION LDH concentrations were connected with an increased prevalence of DR in participants with DM. Our study highlights that patients with LDH > 134 U/L are distinguishably related to DM complicated by DR. DR is more common in diabetic individuals with coronary heart disease.

Abstract
Background Diabetes is a chronic metabolic syndrome that is a global public health problem. Studies have used hematological parameters and hemogram-derived markers as predictors of poor glycemic and microvascular complications status in diabetics. However, the tendency to use these parameters is not fully evaluated in our context, and the evidence is inadequate. This study aimed to assess the hematological profiles and prognostic role of hemogram-derived novel markers in diabetes mellitus and its complications among DM patients at Bishoftu General Hospital, Ethiopia. Methods A comparative cross-sectional study was conducted among 261 participants from June 15 to August 12, 2022. A systematic random sampling technique was used to select participants. Data were collected using structured questionnaires, physical measurements, checklists, and laboratory tests. Hematological parameters and fasting blood glucose levels were determined from blood using Sysmex-XN550 and Cobas C311 analyzers, respectively. Blood smear was used to check Hematology analyzer output, and to screen participants for malaria parasites. Collected data were entered into Epi-data 3.1 and exported to SPSS-25. Data were analyzed by Chi-square, Mann-Whitney U-test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Post hoc test, and ROC curve. A P-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results Total WBC, neutrophils, Monocyte, NLR, MLR, MPVLR, and PLR were significantly higher in poor glycemic and complicated T2DM; meanwhile, measured RBC parameters, RBC indices values were significantly lower in poor glycemic and complicated T2DM. The NLR, MLR, MPVLR, PLR, and NLR, MLR, MPVLR, RPR values were identified as predictors of poor glycemic and complication status in diabetic patients, respectively. Conclusion Significant increment of some hematological parameters and hemogram-derived markers, and their role in predicting poor glycemic and microvascular complications were identified in diabetic patients. Routine screening of hematological parameters and use of hemogram-derived markers for monitoring of altered health status in DM is very important in the improvement of patient quality of life.

Sci Rep 2023; 13:13136. [PMID: 37573470 PMCID: PMC10423199 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-40429-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2023] [Accepted: 08/10/2023] [Indexed: 08/14/2023] Open
Abstract
The role of inflammation and the correlation between inflammatory markers and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) have been studied. In clinical work, a large number of T2DM patients complicated with CKD, but the cause of CKD was not clear. Our study aimed to evaluate the relationship between monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR) and mortality in T2DM patients with CKD. The data from Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care III was analyzed. The primary outcome was 90-day all-cause mortality; the secondary outcomes were the length of ICU stay, hospital mortality and 30-day all-cause mortality. Cox regression was used to evaluate the association between MLR and 90-day mortality. We performed subgroup analyses to determine the consistency of this association, and used Kaplan-Meier survival curve to analysis the survival of different levels of MLR. A total of 1830 patients were included in study retrospectively. The length of ICU stay, 30-day all-cause mortality, and 90-day all-cause mortality in the MLR > 0.71 group were significantly higher than those in the MLR < 0.28 and 0.28 ≤ MLR ≤ 0.71 group. In Cox regression analysis, high MLR level was significantly associated with increased greater risk of 90-day all-cause mortality. The adjusted HR (95%CIs) for the model 1, model 2, and model 3 were 2.429 (1.905-3.098), 2.070 (1.619-2.647), and 1.898 (1.478-2.437), respectively. Subgroup analyses also showed the consistency of association between MLR and 90-day all-cause mortality. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis revealed that MLR > 0.71 had worst prognosis. In T2DM patients with CKD in the intensive care unit, high MLR was significantly associated with increased risk 90-day all-cause mortality.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy is still challenging, with recent evidence proving the key role of inflammation in the damage of the retinal neurovascular unit. This study aims to investigate the predictive value of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), and systemic inflammation index (SII) for diabetic retinopathy (DR) and its severity. We performed a retrospective study on 129 T2DM patients, divided into three groups: without retinopathy (NDR), non-proliferative DR (NPDR), and proliferative DR (PDR). NLR, MLR, and SII were significantly higher in the PDR group when compared to NDR and NPDR (3.2 ± 1.6 vs. 2.4 ± 0.9 and 2.4 ± 1.1; p = 0.005; 0.376 ± 0.216 vs. 0.269 ± 0.083 and 0.275 ± 0.111, p = 0.001; 754.4 ± 514.4 vs. 551.5 ± 215.1 and 560.3 ± 248.6, p = 0.013, respectively). PDR was correlated with serum creatinine (OR: 2.551), NLR (OR: 1.645), MPV (OR: 1.41), and duration of diabetes (OR: 1.301). Logistic regression analysis identified three predictive models with very good discrimination power for PDR (AUC ROC of 0.803, 0.809, and 0.830, respectively): combining duration of diabetes with NLR, MLR, and, respectively, PLR, MPV, and serum creatinine. NLR, MPV, SII, and LMR were associated with PDR and could be useful when integrated into comprehensive risk prediction models.

Characterization of peripheral blood inflammatory indicators and OCT imaging biological markers in diabetic retinopathy with or without nephropathy. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 14:1160615. [PMID: 37465123 PMCID: PMC10351984 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1160615] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2023] [Accepted: 06/13/2023] [Indexed: 07/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective To observe the distribution characteristics of peripheral blood inflammatory indexes and retinal macular area optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging biomarkers in patients with diabetic retinopathy (DR) with or without diabetic nephropathy (DN), in order to seek clinical biomarkers that can predict the development of DR and DN. Methods A total of 169 inpatients with DR who visited the ophthalmology department of the Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from October 2020 to June 2022 and had complete clinical data were collected, and the patients with DR were divided into two major groups, DR and DR/DN, according to whether they had DN, and then further divided into four subgroups, Non-proliferative DR(NPDR), proliferative DR(PDR), NPDR/DN and PDR/DN, according to the stage of DR. The distribution characteristics of peripheral blood inflammatory indexes [Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio(NLR) and Platelet to neutrophil ratio(PLR)], renal function indexes [Cystatin-C(CYS-C), Creatinine(Crea), Uric acid(UA)and Urinary albumin to creatinine ratio(UACR)] and OCT imaging indexes [Hyperreflective foci(HRF), Disorgnization of retinal inner layers(DRIL), Outer retinal tubulations(ORTs), Central retinal thickness(CRT), Retinal nerve fiber layer(RNFL) and Ganglion cell layer(GCL)] were analyzed between the above subgroups. Results There was no difference between DR and DR/DN groups in terms of gender, family history of diabetes, duration of diabetes and Body mass index(BMI) (P>0.05), the mean age of the DR/DN group was significantly lower than that of the DR group (P<0.05), and the proportion of the DR/DN group with a history of hypertension was significantly higher than that of the DR group (P<0.05); there was no significant difference in hemoglobin A1C(HbA1c) between DR and DR/DN groups (P>0.05). (P>0.05), Hemoglobin(HGB) was significantly higher in the DR group than in the DR/DN group (P <0.05), NLR, PLR, Crea, UA and CYS-C were significantly higher in the DR/DN group than in the DR group (P<0.05); there was no significant difference in the comparison of HRF, DRIL, ORTs positive rate and CRT between the DR and DR/DN groups (P>0.05). RNFL and GCL thickness were significantly lower in the DR/DN group than in the DR group (P<0.05); history of hypertension (OR=2.759), NLR (OR=1.316), PLR (OR=1.009), Crea (OR=1.018), UA (OR=1.004), CYS-C (OR=3.742) were the independent (OR=0.951), age (OR=0.951), HGB (OR=0.976), RNFL (OR=0.909) and GCL (OR=0.945) were independent protective factors for DR/DN; RNFL (OR=0.899) and GCL (OR=0.935) were independent protective factors for NPDR/DN, RNFL (OR=0.852) and GCL (OR=0.928) were independent protective factors for PDR/DN. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) for CYS-C, PLR, Crea, UA and the combination of the four indicators to predict DR/DN were 0.717, 0.625, 0.647, 0.616 and 0.717, respectively. Conclusions (1) Low age combined with hypertension HGB, NLR, PLR, CYS-C, Crea and UA may be serum biological markers for predicting DN in DR; meanwhile, PLR, CYS-C, Crea, UA and the combination of the four indicators can be used for risk assessment and adjunctive diagnosis of DN in DR combined with hypertension. (2) The RNFL and GCL thickness in the temporal aspect of the central macular sulcus may be imaging biological markers for predicting DN in DR; meanwhile, GCL thickness may have important value for risk prediction and diagnosis of DN in combination with DR.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is characterized by hyperglycemia and abnormalities in insulin secretion and activity. There are numerous hematological parameters; however, this review article only focuses on red blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, red blood cell indices, platelet count, white blood cells, lymphocytes, neutrophils, monocytes, eosinophils, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio, and monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio, which play an essential role in the pathogenesis of DM. Also, this review article aims to report the relationship between these hematological parameters and the development of DM. In con-clusion, this article shows that increased levels of platelets, red blood cells, hematocrit, lymphocytes, eosinophils, neutrophils, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio, and monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio and decreased levels of hemoglobin are involved in the pathogenesis of DM. However, the role of basophils in DM is unknown yet.
