AIM The role of neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and derived neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (d-NLR) in outcome prediction is assessed in patients with advanced gastric cancer receiving preoperative chemotherapy in a 5-year follow-up cohort. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients undergoing preoperative chemotherapy and sequential R0 resection for advanced gastric cancer were enrolled from July 2004 to N...

Background: For identification of the coronary artery diseases neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio is considered as a well-known marker. Objective: To evaluate relationship (NLR) with CAD severity and determine reference value NLR for prediction CAD. Study design: It was cross-sectional study statistical approach, Peshawar institute cardiology Punjab Institute Lahore from May 2021 October 2021. Mate...

PURPOSE The peripheral hematologic parameters of patients can be prognostic for many malignant tumors, including breast cancer, although their value has not been investigated among the different molecular subtypes of breast cancer. The purpose of this study was to examine the prognostic significance of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) in differ...

No clinical studies have investigated the effect of radioiodine (131I)-targeted therapy on neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte (PLR) as inflammatory response markers in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) associated type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) obesity. This study aimed to assess relationship between blood radioactivity, body mass index (BMI), periph...

Background Central immunity components especially microglia in dementia have been well studied and corresponding immunotherapy gradually caught the attention. However, few studies focused on peripheral dementia. Method To address issue, we examined longitudinal association between incident markers encompassing immune cell counts, their derived ratios including neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NL...

BACKGROUND In this study, we aimed to determine whether neutrophil / lymphocyte ratio (NLR), obtained by dividing the number of neutrophils lymphocytes, and uric acid (UA) levels in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients vary compared with healthy controls establish correlations among these changes themselves as well between such MS subtypes, immunomodulatory drug use, duration disease prognosis. MET...

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a malignancy that originates from the epithelial tissues lining nasopharynx and considered one of most common malignant cancers which cause mortality in Indonesia. Neutrophils lymphocytes are first lines to provide body immunity against foreign substances. Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) prognostic factor various malignancies. Objective: To investigated correlat...

INTRODUCTION Several studies reported the negative impact of elevated neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) on outcomes in many surgical and medical conditions. Previous studies used arbitrary NLR cut-off points according to the average of the populations under study. There is no data on the average NLR in the general population. The aim of this study is to explore the average values of NLR and acc...

Objective: Investigate the expression of procalcitonin (PCT) in children infected with Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), and its correlation to number white blood cells (WBC), neutrophil/ lymphocyte count ratio (NLR). The current study included sixty (60) patient suffering from acquired community aged range between one year larger than 6 years, gander (30) female male Childs Al Zahara Teachin...

PURPOSE To investigate the prognostic relevance of preoperative peripheral neutrophil- to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS We enrolled 129 consecutive GIST patients who underwent initial curative surgical resection with or without adjuvant/palliative imatinib treatment in our study. Blood NLR was calculated as neutrophil count (nu...
