Interleukin-6-to-lymphocyte ratio as a novel prognostic factor in patients with severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome: a discovery and validation study [PDF]
BackgroundSevere fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is an emerging infectious disease, characterized by cytokine storm and immune suppression. The interleukin-6-to-lymphocyte ratio (IL-6/LY) has demonstrated prognostic value in viral infections ...

Integration of SFTSV Viral Load, Age, and Double‐Negative B‐Cells as Prognostic Biomarkers for Severe Fever With Thrombocytopenia Syndrome Outcomes [PDF]
Background Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is a tick‐borne viral illness with high mortality, yet early risk stratification remains challenging. Recent evidence suggests that B‐cell dysregulation contributes to disease severity. Methods A cohort of 168 patients with confirmed SFTS was retrospectively analyzed. Flow cytometry was used
