Association of hemoglobin-to-red cell distribution width ratio with diabetic retinopathy risk and severity by Bin Wang, Hui Li, Lin Wang, Zaihong Chen

“…This study aimed to investigated the association of HRR with DR risk and severity.MethodsData from the 2005–2008 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were analyzed using weighted logistic regression, subgroup analysis, restricted cubic splines, mediation analysis, and other methods.ResultsAmong 1,260 diabetic patients, HRR was inversely associated with DR development (OR = 0.85, P = 0.008), remaining significant post-propensity score matching. A non-linear relationship was identified, with an inflection point at HRR = 10.81 (P for non-linearity < 0.001), above which the protective effect strengthened with increasing HRR. …”
