The Neutrophil-To-Lymphocyte Ratio as an Associated Biomarker of Diabetic Nephropathy in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Article C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

This study looked at blood tests in people with type 2 diabetes. It found a link between a specific blood marker and kidney damage. This shows a connection, but it does not prove that the marker causes the damage. It is an observational study, not a test of a new treatment.
