Sažetak

Aim: To assess Red blood cell Distribution Width (RDW) and platelet indices values in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and to verify its association with kidney dysfunction (KD). Patients and Methods: A cross-sectional study included 149 T2DM subjects divided into two groups with (T2DM – KD; n=52) and without (T2DM-nKD; n=97) presence of kidney dysfunction and 30 healthy subjects. White Blood Cells (WBC) count, C-reactive protein (CRP), fibrinogen, RDW, platelet indices, urea, and creatinine, were measured in all participants. Kidney function was evaluated by the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) calculated using the simplified Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula. Results: T2DM-KD subjects showed statistically significantly higher values of the parameters RDW (p<0.01), Mean Platelet Volume - MPV (p<0.01), Platelet Distribution Width-PDW (p<0.01), Platelecrit-PCT (p<0.01), and Platelet Mass Index-PMI (p<0.01) compared to T2DM-nKD subjects, and statistically significantly lower values of the WBC count in T2DM-KD subjects compared to subjects suffering from T2DM without kidney dysfunction (p<0.01). ROC curve analysis revealed that RDW (sensitivity of 80.8%, specificity of 78.3%), MPV (sensitivity of 75%, specificity of 78.4 %), and PDW (sensitivity of 80.8%, specificity of 83.5%) could be used as markers in distinguishing between T2DM subjects with and without kidney dysfunction. Conclusion: This study confirms the reliability of the RDW,MPV, and PDW as simple, low cost and useful markers in distinguishing between T2DM subjects with and without kidney dysfunction.
