Abstract

Background: HbA1c is used as a parameter for diagnosis and monitoring of diabetes mellitus (DM). Apart from that, HbA1c, red blood cells also experience changes which result in changes in erythrocyte structure and hemodynamic characteristics. The parameter that changes in this case is red cell distribution width (RDW). This study aimed to analyze correlation between HbA1c levels and RDW in type 2 DM patients. Subjects and Method: This a cross sectional study conducted at H. Adam Malik General Central Hospital, Medan, North Sumatera, Indonesia, from December 2022-April 2023. Total sample of 75 type 2 DM patients was selected consecutively. The dependent variable was RDW. The independent variable was HbA1c. Data of RDW and HbA1c were collected from complete blood count test. Data were analyzed using the Spearman correlation. Results: HbA1c was negatively associated with RDW, but it was statistically non-significant (r= -0.08; p= 0.508). Conclusion: HbA1c is negatively associated with RDW, but it is statistically non-significant.   Keywords: diabetes melitus, HbA1c, red cell distribution width

Abstract

Background: Diabetic nephropathy is a serious complication of diabetes mellitus (DM). The neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio is the result of the relative count of neutrophils divided by the relative number of lymphocytes in diabetic nephropathy patients in % units obtained from routine hematology results using EDTA blood samples and measured by flow cytometry with Sysmex XN-1000, glomerular filtration rate was measured according to the Cockroft-Gault formula. This study aimed to determine the relationship between neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and glomerular filtration rate in diabetic nephropathy patients. Subjects and Method:  This was a cross sectional study conducted at H. Adam Malik Hospital, Medan, North Sumatera, Indonesia, from November 2022 – January 2023. 30 diabetic nephropathy patients were selected for this study consecutively. The dependent variable was the glomerular filtration rate. The independent variable was the NLR. Blood sample was taken for a complete blood count and creatinine examination. Data were analyzed using the Spearman test. Results: NLR was negatively associated with eGFR in patients with diabetic nephropathy, but it was statistically non significant (r= -0.25; p= 0.186). Conclusion: NLR is negatively associated with eGFR in patients with diabetic nephropathy, but it is statistically non significant.  Keywords: neutrophil lymphocyte ratio, glomerular filtration rate, diabetic nephropathy

Abstract

Introduction. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is the leading metabolic disease in Indonesia. Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), a major complication of T2DM, was associated with insulin resistance and adipose dysfunction. Visceral adiposity index (VAI) is a tool to measure visceral fat as the indicator of adipose dysfunction and insulin sensitivity. The association between VAI and DPN has not been widely researched, especially in Indonesia. This study aims to assess the association between them. Methods. This was a cross-sectional study conducted on adult patients (aged ≥18 years) with T2DM at H. Adam Malik General Hospital, Medan, from December 2024 to March 2025. DPN was assessed using the Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI), consisting of a questionnaire (MNSI A) and physical examination (MNSI B). VAI was calculated using waist circumference, body mass index (BMI), triglyceride level, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol level. A bivariate analysis was conducted to compare mean VAI values between patients with and without DPN and to assess correlations between VAI and MNSI scores. Results. From a total of 80 subjects, the average age was 56 years (SD 9), and the majority were female (56.3%). The median VAI value in the DPN group was 2.863 (0.401–11.665), slightly higher than in the non-DPN group, which was 2.549 (0.781–17.414), but the difference was not statistically significant (p=0.34). No statistically significant correlation was found between VAI and MNSI A score (r=0.092; p=0.42) or MNSI B score (r=0.12; p=0.31). Conclusion. There was no significant association between VAI and DPN in patients with T2DM.

Abstract

Diabetic nephropathy is a complication that often occurs in diabetics. In this disease, there is damage to the kidney filter, known as the glomerulus. Due to glomerular damage, diabetic nephropathy is closely related to the mechanism of inflammation. The Monocyte-Lymphocyte Ratio is a relatively new marker of inflammation. This study aims to explore the significance of the prediction of the Monocyte-Lymphocyte Ratio as a predictor of the severity of diabetic nephropathy in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DMT2) patients at H. Adam Malik Hospital, Medan. The research was conducted using the cross-section method. This study took blood samples from 44 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with diabetic nephropathy, 22 patients with macroalbuminuria, and 22 patients with microalbuminuria. Then blood was drawn from the vein, and the Monocyte-Lymphocyte Ratio was assessed in all patients. In this study, the average MLR for all patients was 0.41±0.037. There was a significant difference between MLR values ​​in diabetic nephropathy patients with macroalbuminuria compared to diabetic nephropathy patients with microalbuminuria (p<0.001). The optimal cut-off value of MLR in predicting diabetic nephropathy with macroalbuminuria and microalbuminuria was 0.37 with a specificity of 81.8% and a sensitivity of 81.8%. The MLR value in type 2 diabetic patients with diabetic nephropathy can be used as a prognostic factor for the incidence of microalbuminuria and macroalbuminuria.
