ABSTRACT Aim To determine the correlation of Helicobacter pylori infection with peripheral blood neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and mean platelet volume (MPV). Materials and methods The NLR, MPV, platelets, leukocytes, neutrophils, and lymphocytes were calculated and the differences between groups were investigated. Results A total of 199 patients were included in the study. Neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio was statistically lower in H. pylori-positive patients than in H. pylori-negative patients (1.94 ± 0.79 vs 2.67 ± 2.35 respectively, p = 0.04). There was no significant difference between H. pylori-negative patients and H. pylori-positive patients of severe intensity in terms of MPV. However, peripheral blood lymphocytes and platelets were statistically significantly higher in H. pylori-positive patients of severe intensity (lymphocytes 2150 ± 826 vs 2954 ± 2436 respectively, p = 0.000 and platelets 258247 ± 69494 vs 265611 ± 113397 respectively, p = 0.02) compared with H. pylori-negative patients. Conclusion A moderate increase in the intensity of H. pylori does not lead to a significant change in MPV as measured by hemogram; however, it gives rise to a statistically significant fall in NLR. Presence of severe H. pylori-positive intensity leads to a statistically significant increase in peripheral blood lymphocytes and platelets compared with H. pylori-negative patients.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh ekstrak MO terhadap MVP dan NLR pada pasien autoimun. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah eksperimental yang dilakukan pada 30 pasien autoimun yang terdiri dari 28 pasien lupus dan 2 pasien rheumatoid arthritis di Poliklinik Reumatologi RSUD Moewardi pada Januari-Juli 2020. Pasien dikelompokkan menjadi dua, yaitu kelompok perlakuan dan kontrol. Pasien kelompok perlakuan mendapat 2gram ekstrak MO per hari, sedangkan pada kelompok kontrol mendapat plasebo. Perlakuan dilakukan selama 4 minggu, Pemeriksaan MPV dan NLR menggunakan haemositometer. Analisis statistik dilakukan dengan menggunakan uji-T berpasangan dan uji-T independen. Nilai p dianggap signifikan ketika p <0,05. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa MO menurunkan MPV (delta MPV = 4.141; r = 0.656; p = 0.02) dan NLR (delta NLR = 4.1391; r 0.489; p-value = 0.04). dapat disimpulkan MO menurunkan MPV dan NLR pada pasien autoimun.

Objectives: To investigate if preoperative neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), or mean platelet volume (MPV) could be used to predict 1-year mortality in patients undergoing open abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 382 patients who underwent open AAA repair between January 2008 and July 2019. We divided the patients into two groups based on 1-year mortality and compared the preoperative NLR, PLR, and MPV. The patients were then classified into tertiles based on their preoperative NLR (first tertile: < 2.41 (n = 111); second tertile: 2.41 ≤ NLR ≤6.07 (n = 111); and third tertile: > 6.07 (n = 112)). We compared the incidence of mortality and morbidity across the aforementioned tertiles. We performed a stepwise logistic regression analysis to evaluate the predictors for mortality. An additional subgroup analysis was performed by dividing the cases into non-ruptured and ruptured cases. Results: The preoperative NLR was significantly higher in the non-survivor group than in the survivor group (10.53 ± 7.60 vs. 5.76 ± 6.44, respectively, p = 0.003). The PLR and MPV were similar between the groups (145.35 ± 91.11 vs. 154.20 ± 113.19, p = 0.626, 9.38 ± 1.20 vs. 9.11 ± 1.39, p = 0.267, respectively). The incidence of 1-year mortality was 2.7%, 9.0%, and 14.3% in the first, second, and third NLR tertiles, respectively (p = 0.009). Higher NLR (odds ratio 1.085, 95% confidence interval 1.016–1.159, p = 0.015) and ruptured AAA (odds ratio 2.706, 95% confidence interval 1.097–6.673, p = 0.031) were the independent predictors of 1-year mortality in all patients. Moreover, the preoperative NLR was significantly higher in the ruptured AAA than in the non-ruptured AAA group (11.17 ± 7.90 vs. 4.10 ± 4.75, p < 0.001). In subgroup analysis, preoperative NLR (odds ratio 1.144, 95% confidence interval 1.031–1.271, p = 0.012) and PLR (odds ratio 0.986, 95% confidence interval 16 0.975–0.998, p = 0.017) was an independent predictor for 1-year mortality in ruptured cases. Conclusions: We demonstrated an independent relationship between the preoperative NLR and 1-year mortality in patients undergoing open AAA repair, besides PLR and MPV. Furthermore, the NLR and PLR had predictive power for 1-year mortality in ruptured cases.
