| Abstract | Background: Hematological alterations have been observed in diabetes, with some studies showing controversial associations between specific hematologic parameters and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Objectives: This study aims to determine the association between hematological indices, specifically white blood cell (WBC) count, red cell distribution width (RDW), and platelet distribution width (PDW), and the presence of T2DM in an Iranian population, using data from the Bandare-Kong non-communicable diseases (BKNCD) cohort. Methods: Data from the BKNCD cohort, which includes 4063 individuals aged 35 - 70 years, was used in this study. After excluding participants with conditions that could interfere with the analysis, 2318 subjects remained for final evaluation. Results: Among the 2318 individuals, T2DM was present in 530 (22.9%). Binary logistic regression analysis revealed that the odds of T2DM increased by approximately 7% for every 109/L increase in WBC count, after adjusting for variables such as occupation, age, body mass index, sex, place of residence, education, smoking, marital status, systolic and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and physical activity (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 1.066, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.003; 1.133, P = 0.039). Additionally, elevated PDW was associated with a 63% increase in the odds of T2DM (aOR = 1.625, 95% CI 1.159; 2.279, P = 0.005), while increased RDW was associated with decreased odds of T2DM (aOR = 0.801, 95% CI 0.716; 0.895, P < 0.001). Conclusions: Elevated PDW and WBC counts in T2DM patients in this study suggest an inflammatory state and hypercoagulability. However, the paradoxically decreased RDW may be linked to poor glycemic control in these patients. | en |
