“…Surgery is mainly recommended in symptomatic cases with 70% or more stenosis or in asymptomatic cases with 60% or more stenosis combined with other risk factors for plaque embolization. 4,5 The maximum benefit in preventing a future cerebrovascular ischemic event has been shown in the first 2 weeks after the initial ischemic event. 1,5 Endarterectomy is an effective long-term stroke prevention strategy in symptomatic patients.…”

“… 19 Indications for carotid endarterectomy in symptomatic patients began to be studied in the 1990s, demonstrating good results for patients with severe stenoses compared to clinical treatment. 2 , 4 For medical indications, in addition to the patient’s symptoms and comorbidities, the severity of the stenosis and the anatomical and psychological characteristics of the plaque are also taken into account. Surgery is mainly recommended in symptomatic cases with 70% or more stenosis or in asymptomatic cases with 60% or more stenosis combined with other risk factors for plaque embolization.…”

“…Approximately 30% of cases result from carotid stenosis. [1][2][3][4][5] Similar to coronary heart disease, inflammatory activity plays a significant role in the development and progression of atherosclerotic carotid disease. 3 Blood counts can provide valuable information in patients with carotid disease.…”

Background Approximately 30% of stroke cases result from carotid disease. Although several risk factors for complications after carotid endarterectomy have been identified, the existence of a biomarker that can estimate postoperative risk in these patients has not yet been proven. Objectives This study aimed to investigate correlations between the platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and postoperative clinical outcomes in patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy. Methods A retrospective study was conducted, including 374 patients who underwent carotid endarterectomy between 2002 and 2019 due to moderate to high extracranial internal carotid artery stenosis. Their platelet-lymphocyte ratio and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratios were obtained from the same blood samples. Results There was a statistically significant correlation between the PLR and the occurrence of restenosis (p < 0.01) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after endarterectomy (p = 0.03). Additionally, there was a statistically significant correlation between the PLR and the combined outcomes stroke and/or AMI and/or death (p = 0.03) and stroke and/or AMI and/or death and/or restenosis (p < 0.01). However, there were no significant correlations between NLR and these outcomes (p = 0.05, p = 0.16). Conclusions The platelet-lymphocyte ratio proved to be a useful test for predicting occurrence of strokes, acute myocardial infarctions, and deaths during the postoperative period after carotid endarterectomy. It was also associated with the risk of postoperative restenosis.

“…NLR and PLR are involved in different immunological pathways and activate the nonspeci c in ammatory response by increasing the neutrophil or platelet count 22,23 PLR and NLR are markers that combine information on hemostasis and in ammation, with high sensitivity for demonstrating the in ammatory process 24,25 . Several studies suggest that NLR and PLR can be markers of in ammatory activity in various diseases 26,27 .…”

There is still a lack of effective non-invasive diagnosis of atherosclerotic renal stenosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) with atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS). Data of a total of 1062 patients (362 ARAS, 664 non-ARAS) were collected. Logistic regression analysis and receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was used to analyze the collected patient data. NLR and PLR levels were significantly increased in ARAS group compared with non-ARAS group (p < 0.05). Correlation analysis showed that both NLR and PLR were positively correlated with ARAS (r = 0.199, r = 0.251, p < 0.05), and only NLR was positively correlated with the degree of stenosis of ARAS (r = 0.152, p < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression showed that NLR (OR = 1.203, 95%CI = 1.023 ~ 1.046, P = 0.025) and PLR (OR = 1.011, 95%CI = 1.003 ~ 1.019, P = 0.004) were independent risk factors for ARAS. The ROC curve indicated that the diagnostic value of NLR and PLR were (AUC = 0.653, P < 0.001; AUC = 0.62, P < 0.001). In conclusion, elevated levels of NLR and PLR are associated with an increased risk of developing ARAS. NLR and PLR have the potential to be a means of diagnosing ARSA.
