About this trial

the aim of this study is to: evaluate the association between serum ferritin levels and the clinical presentation and short-term prognosis of patients with DKA. Specifically, the correlation between its level and the severity of DKA at presentation and determine its prognostic value in predicting short-term outcomes.
