Binary logistic regression analysis showed that elevated ANGPTL8 levels were associated with greater risk ratios (RRs) of death (RR in quartile 4 vs. quartile 1, 3.54; 95% CI 1.32–9.50) and renal dysfunction (RR in quartile 4 vs. quartile 1, 12.43; 95% CI 1.48–104.81) only in diabetic patients. Here, ANGPTL8 is linked to Abnormal renal physiology.
