Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of monocyte to lymphocyte ratio(MLR)and neutrophil percentage to albumin ratio(NPAR)in predicting diabetic macular edema(DME).Methods One hundred and one diabetic retinopathy patients admitted to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from January 2018 to February 2023 were selected as the research subjects,and they were divided into DME group(n=56)and non-DME group(n=45)based on fun-dus examination results.The general data such as gender,age,course of diabetes and laboratory indicators were collected by consulting medical records.Fasting elbow venous blood was collected early in the morning of the next day after the diagnosis of DME in both groups,the monocytes(MONO)count,lymphocyte(LYM)count,white blood cell(WBC)count,percentage of neutrophils(NEUT),plasma albumin(ALB),glycosylated haemoglobin(HbA1c)were measured by full automatic blood routine analyzer,and MLR,NPAR were calculated.General information and laboratory indexes of patients in the two groups were compared,and risk factors for DME were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression,and receiver operator characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to evaluate the predictive value of MLR and NPAR for DME.Results The course of diabetes,MONO count,NEUT,MLR,NPAR,WBC count,and HbA1c level of patients between the DME group were significantly higher than those in the non-DME group(P<0.05);there was no statistically significant difference in gender,age,LYM count,and ALB level of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that increased levels of WBC,MLR,and NPAR were independent risk factors for the occurrence of DME(P<0.05).The ROC curve showed that the best cut-off value of MLR was 0.192,and the area under the curve(AUC)for the prediction of DME was 0.729(95%confidence interval:0.631-0.826),with a sensitivity of 58.9%and a specificity of 82.2%;while the best cut-off value of NPAR was 1.404,and the AUC for predicting DME occurrence was 0.884(95%confidence interval:0.820-0.949),with a sensitivity of 75.0%and a specificity of 91.1%;the AUC of MLR and NPAP for predicting the occurrence of DME was 0.906(95%confidence interval:0.851-0.906),with a sensitivity of 69.6%and a specificity of 93.3%.With MLR>0.192 as positive and NPAR>1.404 as positive,the parallel test of MLR and NPAR predicted the occurrence of DME with a sensitivity of 87.5%,a specificity of 71.1%,and an accuracy of 80.2%;while the tandem test of MLR and NPAR predicted the occurrence of DME with a sensitivity of 46.4%,a specificity of 97.8%,and an accuracy of 69.3%.Conclusion Increased levels of MLR and NPAR are independent risk factors for the occurrence of DME and have certain predictive value for DME.The predictive value of combined MLR and NPAR test for DME is higher than that of separate test,and parallel experiment is more helpful for the early prediction of DME.
