Patients were divided into three groups according to the level of SF. The following outcomes were measured: cumulative incidence of chronic kidney disease [i.e. estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 mL/min per 1.73 m 2 and/or urinary albumin/creatine ratio (ACR) ≥ 30 mg/g] and RFD (i.e. decrease in eGFR of ≥ 25% from baseline or a decline rate of ≥ 3 mL/min per 1.73 m 2 annually).Results: In total, over a median follow-up period of 23 months, 30 (15.7%) and 89 patients (46.6%) developed CKD and RFD. In multivariable Cox models, a 100 ng/mL increment in SF was associated with a 1.12-fold (95% CI: 1.02– 1.24) higher adjusted risk for incidence of CKD. The adjusted-HR of CKD was 1.31 (95% CI: 0.38– 4.53) and 2.92 (95% CI: 0.87– 9.77) for those in tertile 2 and tertile 3, respectively, compared with the patients in tertile 1. However, SF was not significantly associated with RFD (adjusted-HR: 1.06, 95% CI: 0.99– 1.14).Conclusion: Serum ferritin independently predicts the incidence of CKD in male Tibetan patients with T2DM. High levels of serum ferritin may play a role in the pathogenesis leading to the development of CKD in T2DM.Keywords: serum ferritin, chronic kidney disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus
