Association between advanced lung cancer inflammation index and chronic kidney disease: a cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the common chronic diseases, and malnutrition and inflammation play a key role in the development of CKD. The advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI) is a novel index of nutrition and inflammation, and its association with CKD has not yet been clarified. The aim of this study was to explore the potential association between ALI and CKD.

Methods

We conducted a cross-sectional survey using data extracted from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES, 2003-2018). Weighted multivariate logistic regression was used to assess the association between ALI and CKD, and smoothed curve fitting and threshold effect analyses were used to describe the nonlinear association between ALI and CKD. Subgroup analyses we
