ABSTRACT: Introduction
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is linked to immunity and inflammation. We aimed to investigate if systemic inflammatory indicators can predict mortality in DKD patients in intensive care units (ICUs) and determine potential associations between them.Methods
This study included a cohort of 840 adults with DKD in the ICU. Three systemic inflammatory indicators were evaluated by peripheral blood tests: systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR). Cox regression analysis, restricted cubic spline (RCS), and Kaplan-Meier curves were used to evaluate the associations between the inflammatory indicators and the mortality of the DKD population. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) was empl
