White blood cell ratio and diabetic ketoacidosis severity
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at a simple blood test, the leukocyte glucose index, to see if it can help doctors judge how severe diabetic ketoacidosis (a serious diabetes complication) is. It aims to find a reliable way to predict recovery and guide treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- 18 years or older
- You have diabetes (or are newly diagnosed) and are currently in diabetic ketoacidosis
- You are not pregnant
- You do not have an active infection, blood cancer, or other condition that affects white blood cell counts
- You have not recently had chemotherapy or other treatments that change white blood cell counts

This study looks at a simple, non-invasive measurement called the perfusion index, which shows how well blood is flowing to your tissues, to help doctors quickly determine how severe diabetic ketoacidosis (a serious diabetes complication) is. The goal is to see if this measurement can guide treatment and improve outcomes.
This study looks at whether the level of a protein called ferritin in your blood can help predict how well you recover from diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). If you have DKA and are over 18, you may be able to join.
This study looks at whether two simple blood tests (a measure of insulin resistance and certain inflammation markers) can help predict how diabetic kidney disease will progress. If you have diabetes and early kidney problems, this might help your doctor better understand your condition.
This study checks whether a set of blood and urine tests can predict “acute kidney injury” (a sudden worsening of kidney function) earlier in people with diabetes who are undergoing a heart procedure. If the tests work, they may help doctors spot kidney trouble sooner and protect your kidneys.
This study tests a real-time glucose monitor (RT-CGM) to help young adults with insulin-treated diabetes recognize dangerously high or fast-changing blood sugars. It may help lower the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a serious complication that can lead to urgent care or hospital stays.
This study looks at whether a simple blood test ratio can help predict how well critically ill patients do in the intensive care unit (ICU). It aims to understand if stress-related high blood sugar affects recovery.
