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/lymphocyte ratio in the diagnosis of childhood appendicitis.
Total leukocyte count (TLC) and neutrophil count are not reliable parameters in the diagnosis of appendicitis in children, necessitating a search for more sensitive criteria. This study's goal was to investigate the diagnostic value of neutrophil/lymphocyte (N/L) ratio in childhood appendicitis. The patients admitted for acute abdominal symptoms were reviewed retrospectively. Data collected inc...
متن کاملPretreatment Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio
The pretreatment neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is reportedly associated with the clinical outcomes of many cancers. However, it has not been widely investigated whether the pretreatment NLR is associated with the pathological characteristics of prostate cancer (PCa) and biochemical recurrence in PCa patients receiving radical prostatectomy (RP).In this cohort study, a total of 1688 PCa p...
متن کاملIncreased IL-17A in Atrial Fibrillation Correlates with Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio
Background: Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia and an independent risk factor for stroke among the elderly. A role for inflammation in the atrial remodeling as well as development and recurrence of AF is known. Objective: To compare IL-17A between patients with different types of AF and healthy individuals. Methods: IL-17A was measured in sera of 112 patients and 107...
