This study's goal was to investigate the diagnostic value of neutrophil/lymphocyte (N/L) ratio in childhood appendicitis.

متن کاملNeutrophil-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...
