Leukocytic dysregulation in children with type 1 diabetes: relation to diabetic vascular complications

ConclusionChildren with T1D had significantly higher NLR and lower PLR compared to controls. These changes were more evident in those with diabetic microvascular complications than those without. Furthermore, NLR was positively correlated and PLR was negatively correlated to HbA1C, diabetes duration and hyperlipidemia. Hence, NLR and PLR can be a potential indicator for the risk of development of diabetic microvascular complications in children with T1D.
