Popis: Background: The roles of neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet–lymphocyte ratio (PLR) as novel surrogate markers of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) are promising. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate whether NLR and PLR can predict DKD in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Subjects and Methods: This cross‑sectional study was conducted from July 2018 to June 2019, among 312 patients with T2DM recruited from eight tertiary hospitals throughout Bangladesh. Complete blood count (CBC) was performed in fully automated hematology analyzers, and NLR and PLR were calculated. The urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) was measured in a random single-voided urine sample. The diagnosis of DKD was made based on the presence of albuminuria (ACR ≥30 mg/g) and/or reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR
