The association between CysC and organ dysfunction and all-cause death in diabetes population classified by sex. (A) The association between CysC and organ dysfunction and all-cause death in the male diabetes population. (B) The association between CysC and in the female diabetes population. Severe inflammation was defined as the highest NLR >6.11 during hospitalization; liver injury was defined as a level of ALT >40 U/L at any time during hospitalization; and heart failure was defined as the highest level of NT-proBNP>300 pg/mL during hospitalization. Adjusted by age, severe pneumonia, serum albumin, blood glucose, log NT-proBNP baseline. T2DM, type 2 diabetes mellitus; CysC, cystatin C; NLR, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; AST, aspartate aminotransferase; NT-proBNP, N terminal pro B type natriuretic peptide.
