In this study, we sought to evaluate the potential utility of three ratios, namely neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), low-density lipoprotein (LDL)/albumin ratio (LAR), and red blood cell distribution width (RDW)/albumin ratio (RAR), as cheap, easily accessible, noninvasive markers for proteinuria in uncontrolled diabetic patients to detect diabetic nephropathy-related proteinuria at an early stage. Here, ALB is linked to diabetic kidney disease.
