Joint association of estimated glucose disposal rate and systemic inflammation response index with mortality in cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome stage 0–3: a nationwide prospective cohort study

Cardiovasc DiabetolPublished Prospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

In CKM syndrome stages 0-3, eGDR and SIRI have joint effect on mortality. Combining these markers can help identify high-risk individuals early, enabling timely monitoring and intervention to improve outcomes.
