Predictive effects of advanced lung cancer inflammation index and serum vitamin D on mortality in patients with asthma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Changes in systemic inflammation, nutritional status and serum vitamin D level are important characteristics of asthma. However, role and importance of nutritional inflammatory indicators or serum vitamin D concentrations in predicting the prognosis of asthma remain unclear. The advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI), based on body mass index (BMI), serum albumin and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), is a comprehensive index to assess systemic inflammation and nutrition. This study aimed to evaluate their independent and combined predictive value of mortality in asthma patients.

Methods

This study analyzed data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2001-2018. Cox regression analysis was used to assess the independent or joint e
