Does mean platelet volume/lymphocyte count ratio associate with frailty in type 2 diabetes mellitus?

Objectives Frailty is a common problem in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). It considered to be associated inflammation. Novel markers derived from hemogram, such as neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and mean platelet volume/lymphocyte (MPVLR), are proposed inflammatory markers. In present study, we aimed compare NLR MPVLR levels of frail T2DM non?frail diabetic subjects. Methods Diabetic subjects were grouped non-frail groups according the Edmonton Frail Scale. General characteristics laboratory data compared. Results The (3.9 [1.4-13.2] %) group was significantly higher than that (3.4 [1.5-6.9] (p = 0.02). positively correlated Scale score (r 0.21, p 0.03). A level greater 3.41 % has 71 sensitivity 51 specifity predicting frailty. Conclusion We suggest elevated could finding marks frailty Inexpensive easy?to?assess nature may useful population (Tab. 2, Fig. 1, Ref. 32).
