Red cell distribution width to albumin ratio is associated with asthma risk: a population-based study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The red cell distribution width to albumin ratio (RAR), a newly identified biomarker of inflammation, has been linked to a variety of inflammatory diseases. Asthma, a major burden on global health, is an inflammatory airway disease that is profoundly affected by inflammation. This study primarily sought to examine the influence of RAR on the risk of developing asthma.

Methods

Data from 1999 to 2020 was gathered from the NHANES database. The impact of RAR on asthma risk and their non-linear relationship were clarified by multivariate logit and restricted cubic spline (RCS) analyses. Subgroup and interaction analyses collectively formed the sensitivity analysis for this study.

Results

This study was based on an analysis of 54,161 individuals. RAR has been ide
