Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effects of Roxadustat and recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) on novel inflammatory immune indices in anemic patients with non-dialysis type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with chronic kidney disease (CKD).Methods:A retrospective case-control study was performed in this study. Patients with non-dialysis type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with CKD admitted to Shanghai First People's Hospital from December 2015 to December 2023 were selected. Among those patients, 252 cases were treated with rHuEPO (rHuEPO group) and 103 cases were treated with Roxadustat (Roxadustat group). Both group had a course of treatment over three months. The baseline data and novel inflammatory immunity indices, systemic immuno-inflammation index (SII), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) were compared between the two groups of patients before and after 3 months of treatment.Results:The differences in gender, age, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, history of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, history of hypertension, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and use of hypoglycemic, antihypertensive, and lipid-lowering medications were not statistically significant when compared between the two groups of patients (all P>0.05). Before treatment, the differences in NLR, PLR, SII, and LMR between the two groups were not statistically significant (all P>0.05); after 3 months of treatment, NLR, PLR, SII, and LMR were lower in both groups than before treatment [rHuEPO group: (2.3±0.8)% vs. (2.8±0.8)%, (83±33)% vs. (160±49)%, (2.3±0.8)% vs. (3.1±0.7)%, (476±227)% vs. (594±243)%, with t values of 9.25, 23. 20, 26.67, and 9.62, respectively, all P<0.001; Roxadustat group: (1.7±0.6)% versus (2.9±1.0)%, (72±30)% versus (162±47)%, (2.0±0.8)% versus (3.1±0.9)%, (408±151)% versus (605±267)%, with t values of 8. 38, 14.27, 8.62, and 5.97, respectively, all P<0.001], and NLR, PLR, and SII were lower in the Roxadustat group than in the rHuEPO group ( t=5.00, P<0.001, t=2.44, P=0.015, t=2.09, P=0.040). Conclusion:In patients with anemia in non-dialysis type 2 diabetes mellitus associated with CKD,Roxadustat had similar ability of reducing the level of novel inflammatory markers compared to rHuEPO.
