Predictive role of red blood cell distribution width and hemoglobin-to-red blood cell distribution width ratio for mortality in patients with COPD: evidence from NHANES 1999–2018
Higher RDW levels were positively associated with an increased risk of mortality in patients with COPD. HRR levels were negatively correlated with the risk of all-cause and CVD mortality. The predictive value of HRR for mortality in these patients is lower than that of RDW.
