Background: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the impact of D-dimer-to-albumin ratio (DAR) on outcomes in patients with hepatitis B virus-associated decompensated cirrhosis (HBV-DeCi).
Methods: A total of 172 HBV-DeCi patients were enrolled. Logistic regression was used to explore the association between DAR and 30-day mortality. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used to evaluate the performance of DAR for predicting mortality.
Results: The 30-day mortality was 19.8%. DAR was clearly higher in the nonsurvivors compared with the survivors, and increasing DAR was associated with an increasing risk of death. DAR was independently associated with mortality and its AUC for mortality was equivalent to that for Model for End-Stage Liver Disease score.
Conclusions: DAR may be a potential prognostic marker for mortality in HBV-DeCi patients.

Background: The prognostic value of Albumin and D-dimer has been established for multiple tumor types, indicating their potential for predicting tumor development. Nevertheless, the predictive capability of the DDI-to-albumin ratio (DAR) in locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) remains uncertain.
Purpose: The objective of this study was to investigate the prognostic significance of the DAR in LARC.

Purpose: To explore the association of D-dimer-to-albumin ratio (DAR) with hospital readmission within one year in patients with acute exacerbation chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD).
Patients And Methods: From January 2019 to October 2022, 509 patients with COPD were enrolled in Baise People's Hospital for this retrospective cohort study. Baseline data and blood samples were collected, and patients were followed up for one year after inclusion.

We aimed to investigate the correlation between the serum D-dimer (D-D) to albumin (ALB) ratio (DAR) and 28-day all-cause mortality in patients with sepsis. Data from sepsis patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of Wuhan Fourth Hospital from October 2021 to January 2024 were collected. Univariate cox analysis was performed for mortality factors in sepsis patients, and multiple cox regression models were used to analyze independent mortality risk factors.

Elevated circulating D-dimer levels have been shown to be a predictor of in-hospital mortality in a variety of diseases; however, the relationship between D-dimer and the in-hospital prognosis of non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) remains unclear. This retrospective study included 662 non-diabetic patients with NSTEMI. Independent risk factors were identified by multivariate analyses, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses were performed to compare the predictive value of D-dimer, albumin (ALB), and D-dimer to albumin ratio (DAR) for in-hospital death in NSTEMI.

Objective: Although the impact of the variants of COVID-19 on the general population is diminishing, there is still a certain mortality rate for severe and critically ill patients, especially for the elderly with comorbidities. The present study investigated whether the D-dimer to albumin ratio (DAR) can predict the severity of illness and mortality in COVID-19 patients.
Methods: A total of 1,993 patients with COVID-19 were retrospectively reviewed and the association of DAR with severe or critical illness or death during hospitalization was analyzed.
