Abdominal Aortic

The association of chronic inflammatory markers with the clinical outcome after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) was investigated. We included 230 patients, treated electively with EVAR. The values of neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet–lymphocyte ratio (PLR) were measured pre- and postoperatively. Any major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) and acute kidney injury (AKI) were recorded. Adverse events occurred in 12 patients (5.2%). Seven patients suffered from MACE and five from AKI. Median NLR and PLR values were significantly increased after the procedure (NLR: from 3.34 to 8.64, p < 0.001 and PLR: from 11.37 to 17.21, p < 0.001). None of the patients or procedure characteristics were associated with the occurrence of either a MACE or AKI. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that postoperative NLR and PLR were strongly associated with AKI. A threshold postoperative NLR value of 9.9 was associated with the occurrence of AKI, with a sensitivity of 80% and specificity of 81%. A threshold postoperative PLR value of 22.8 was associated with the occurrence of AKI, with a sensitivity of 80% and specificity of 83%. Postoperative NLR and PLR have been associated with the occurrence of AKI after EVAR for AAA.

Aim: To evaluate the role of biomarkers from blood samples of COVID-19 patients admitted in Index Medical College Hospital & R.C. Material & Methods: Hematological parameters such as Neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR), Platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR) & Systemic Inflammatory Index (SII) were studied in RT-PCR positive patients to evaluate the utility of these parameters for early diagnosis of COVID-19. Results: The study showed that there was statistically significant difference in test groups in reference to Neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR) & SII values (p<0.05). But no statistically significant difference was observed between test groups in reference to Platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR) values (p>0.05). Conclusion: Leukocyte, Neutrophil, NLR & SII values can be used in the early diagnosis of COVID-19. Keywords: NLR, SII, Leukocyte, Neutrophil
