Association of platelet to lymphocyte ratio and risk of in-hospital mortality in patients with type B acute aortic dissection

Association of Platelet to Lymphocyte Ratio and Risk of 30-Day Postoperative Complications in Patients Undergoing Abdominal Aortic Surgical Repair

“…13 One study addressed the significance of the PLR in the context of aortic disease. 14 The authors observed a U-shaped association between PLR at admission and in-hospital death in patients with type B acute aortic dissection, meaning that decreased or elevated PLR was significantly associated with a worse prognosis, which is similar to our findings.…”

“…13 At last, one study investigated its significance in patients with type B acute aortic dissection and revealed an association with in-hospital mortality. 14 Inflammation represents a main pathophysiological feature contributing to aneurysm development. 15 Neutrophils play a critical role through secretion of cytokines and inflammatory mediators that contribute to recruit or activate other immune cells and platelet count impacts on the risk of progression and rupture of AAA.…”

<p>Barthel Index as a Predictor of Mortality in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome: Better Activities of Daily Living, Better Prognosis</p>

“…13,30 And our previous studies demonstrated that indicators associated with multiple pathophysiological states involved in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease might provide more prognostic information. [31][32][33] The BI score as a validated assessment tool for ADL is highly likely to predict prognosis of ACS patients, which well explains our findings.…”

Predictive Value of White Blood Cells, Neutrophils, Platelets, Platelet to Lymphocyte and Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratios in Patients with Acute Aortic Dissection

“…It is known that the inflammation pathways involved in both Stanford type A and type B AAD and biomarkers based on inflammation could be potential risk stratification factors, including white blood cells, neutrophils and C-reactive protein. In the same way as the study by Selvi et al, our previous study also indicated that PLR was associated with in-hospital mortality in type B AAD [ 3 ] . However, there were no researches to compare the predictive values among the biomarkers.…”
