White blood cell count and stable coronary artery disease: the role of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio.
In their recently published article, Ates et al. [1] have evaluated the relationship between total white blood cell (WBC) count and the presence, severity and extent of coronary atherosclerosis detected in 817 subjects undergoing multislice computed tomographic coronary angiography for suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). Although plaque morphology was not associated with total WBC counts, ...
متن کاملThe Associations of Anthropometric Parameters and Hepatic Steatosis
Introduction: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is an important health problem globally that characterized as a disease spectrum which includes simple steatosis, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. The prevalence of NAFLD has significantly increased recently. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between anthropometric par...
متن کاملThe diagnostic value of white blood cell, neutrophil, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio in patients with primary angle closure glaucoma
OBJECTIVE Inflammatory mechanisms may have a role in the pathogenesis of primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG). The objective of this study was to investigate the diagnostic value of white blood cell (WBC), neutrophil, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) in patients with PACG and its association with glaucoma severity. METHOD The study was retrospectiv...
متن کاملEvaluation of total and differential white blood cell counts in workers exposed to lead
Introduction: Lead is a toxic heavy metal that has adverse health effects on blood parameters. About 80% of lead produced is used in batteries, especially vehicle batteries. Therefore, the present study aimed to assess the hematological changes, including total and differential white blood cell (WBC) counts in battery workers exposed to lead, and compare with the non-exposed group. Materials a...
متن کاملThe Relation of Epicardial Fat Thickness, Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio and Circadian Rhythm of Blood Pressure
Is this issue of the journal, Kim et al. 1) aimed to explain the association between epicardial fat thickness (EFT) and neutro-phil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) as systemic inflammatory markers in hypertensive patients according to diurnal variation of blood pressure (BP). They concluded that EFT and NLR are independently associated with impaired diurnal variation of BP in hypertensive patients. R...
