Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio as a predictor of acute appendicitis.
BACKGROUND Accurately diagnosing appendicitis can be difficult. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the ability of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) to predict acute appendicitis pre-operatively and to differentiate between simple and complicated appendicitis. METHODS A database of 1067 patients who underwent surgery was evaluated. Based on postoperative histopathological examin...
متن کاملThe Change of Neutrophil Lymphocyte Ratio in Acute Appendicitis
Acute appendicitis is the most common indication for emergency abdominal surgery, although it remains difficult to diagnose. Aim of this study is to investigate the supporting role of neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio in diagnosis of acute appendicitis. The medical records of 241 patients who had undergone appendectomy between June 2013 and March 2014 were investigated retrospectively. Sixty patients...
متن کاملNeutrophil-to-Albumin Ratio as A Novel Predictor of Mortality in Patients with Sepsis
Background and Objective: Sepsis is a syndrome involving physiological, pathological, and biochemical abnormalities caused by infection. Very few studies have been performed to evaluate the prognostic value of the neutrophil-to-albumin ratio. The present study aimed to evaluate the neutrophil-to-albumin ratio in patients with sepsis admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Materials and Meth...
متن کاملDelta neutrophil index as an early predictor of acute appendicitis and acute complicated appendicitis in adults
BACKGROUND This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the ability of the delta neutrophil index (DNI) to predict histologically normal appendicitis preoperatively and to differentiate between simple and complicated appendicitis. METHODS The data from 650 patients were divided into positive and negative appendectomy groups (histologically normal appendicitis). The patients in the acute appendi...
متن کاملInvestigating Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio as a Predictive Marker of Disease Activity in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background and purpose: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease characterized by synovitis, inflammation, and joint destruction that if not well controlled can destroy cartilage, bone, ligaments and tendons, and in some cases cause disability. The aim of this study was to evaluate the possible role of the ratio of neutrophil-lymphocyte (NLR) as an inflammatory mar...
