Hemoglobin reflects the body\u2019s oxygen-carrying capacity and nutritional status, while the red cell distribution width indicates the heterogeneity in the size of red blood cells. The ratio of these two indicators can comprehensively reflect the systemic metabolic status and inflammatory state of patients with diabetic ketoacidosis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objectives<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>To study the association between the HRR and the recurrence of diabetic ketoacidosis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A retrospective study was conducted on patients with type 2 diabetic ketoacidosis at a local medical center.
