Use of full blood count parameters and haematology cell ratios in screening for sepsis in South Africa

African Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2023
Background: Sepsis is characterised by multi-organ failure due to an uncontrolled immune response to infection. Sepsis prevalence is increased in developing countries and requires prompt diagnosis and treatment.

Prognostic Significance of Pretreatment Lymphocyte–to–Monocyte Ratio in Patients with Tongue Cancer [PDF]

Anticancer Research, 2018
Low pre-operative lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) is associated with worse outcomes in several malignancies. The aim of this study was to determine the prognostic value of LMR in tongue cancer.A total of 103 patients with pathologically-proven tongue cancer were retrospectively analyzed.

Comment on: “Evaluation of Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio, Platelet to Lymphocyte Ratio, and Lymphocyte to Monocyte Ratio in Patients with Cellulitis” [PDF]

Revista da Associação Médica Brasileira, 2020
Easily accessible hemogram-derived parameters have gained the attention of physicians recently. These are simple, practical, and economical parameters that were found useful in the prediction of many clinical problems. They are often used as a sign of chronic inflammation. In chronic inflammatory conditions, their levels are elevated.

Association of urinary neopterin, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte, lymphocyte-to-monocyte and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratios with long-term survival of patients with breast cancer

Pteridines, 2016
The immune response crucially determines the survival of patients with malignant tumors including breast carcinoma. The aim of the present study was to evaluate retrospectively an association of peripheral blood cell count (PBC)-derived ratios and ...

Prognostic Value of the Lymphocyte‐to‐Monocyte Ratio in Patients with Parotid Gland Carcinoma [PDF]

The Laryngoscope, 2020
ObjectivePrevious studies have evaluated various markers as prognostic predictors in patients with many types of cancers. However, the influence of such factors on the outcomes of patients with parotid gland carcinoma (PGC) is unknown. This study investigated the roles of alternative markers in the prognoses of patients with PGC.MethodsOverall, 101 ...

The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte and monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratios are independently associated with clinical outcomes of viral encephalitis

Frontiers in Neurology, 2023
BackgroundThe neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR) are used as prognostic biomarkers for many diseases. In this study, we aimed to explore the possibility of using ratios of NLR and MLR to predict the prognosis of ...

The lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio predicts intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis plaque instability

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Background and purposeGadolinium enhancement on high-resolution vessel wall imaging (HR-VWI) is an imaging marker of intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) plaque instability. This study aimed to evaluate the relationships between hematological inflammatory indicators and the enhancement of ICAS plaques and to search for hematological indicators ...

Tumor B‐cell infiltration in platinum‐treated advanced muscle‐invasive urothelial carcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Bladder tumors with higher pretreatment memory B‐cell infiltration were linked to longer survival after cisplatin chemotherapy, but not carboplatin. These tumors also showed more organized immune structures (tertiary lymphoid structures) and a shared pro‐inflammatory B‐cell‐rich community, suggesting that memory B cells may help identify patients most ...
