Abstract
Abstract
Objects
This study aimed to explore the association between the Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index (SII) and diabetes mellitus (DM) and to assess its influence on the prognosis of the DM and no-DM groups.
Methods
The study used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey; 9643 participants were included. Logistic regression analysis was employed to evaluate connections between SII and DM. We used the Cox proportional hazards model, restricted cubic spline, and Kaplan–Meier curve to analyze the relationship between SII and mortality.
Results
The logistic regression analysis indicated that a significant increase in the likelihood of developing DM with higher SII levels (odds ratio, 1.31; 95% CI, 1.09-1.57, P = .003). The Cox model showed that there is a positive association between increased SII and higher all-cause mortality. The hazard ratios for SII were 1.53 (1.31, 1.78), 1.61 (1.31, 1.98), and 1.41 (1.12, 1.78) in the total, DM and non-DM groups, respectively. We observed a linear correlation between SII and all-cause mortality in DM participants, whereas non-DM participants and the total population showed a nonlinear correlation.
Conclusion
Elevated SII levels are linked to an augmented risk of DM. Those with DM and higher SII levels demonstrated an elevated risk of mortality.
