The aim of this study is to investigate the diagnostic efficacy of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), neutrophil-to-monocyte ratio (NMR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and non-CD controls. These ratios were all derived from complete blood counts. Two hundred and six participants including CD inpatients and non-CD controls were retrospectively enrolled. We found statistically higher NLR and PLR and lower LMR in CD patients than in non-CD controls (all < 0.01). However, NMR was not different between the two groups ( = 0.18). In addition, NLR, PLR, and LMR were associated with CRP and ESR. Optimal cutoffs for NLR and PLR were 2.72 (sensitivity: 68.3%, specificity: 75.9%, and overall accuracy: 70.1%) and 132.88 (sensitivity: 76.7%, specificity: 84.8%, and overall accuracy: 80.8%), respectively. In conclusion, the NLR and PLR might be effective, readily available, and low-cost biomarkers for differentiating CD patients from non-CD controls.
本研究旨在探讨中性粒细胞与淋巴细胞比值(NLR)、中性粒细胞与单核细胞比值(NMR)、淋巴细胞与单核细胞比值(LMR)及血小板与淋巴细胞比值(PLR)在克罗恩病(CD)患者及非CD对照中的诊断效能。这些比值均来自全血细胞计数。回顾性纳入了206名参与者,包括CD住院患者及非CD对照。我们发现,CD患者的NLR和PLR在统计学上高于非CD对照,而LMR低于非CD对照(均P<0.01)。然而,两组间NMR无差异(P = 0.18)。此外,NLR、PLR和LMR与CRP及ESR相关。NLR和PLR的最佳截断值分别为2.72(敏感性:68.3%,特异性:75.9%,总体准确率:70.1%)和132.88(敏感性:76.7%,特异性:84.8%,总体准确率:80.8%)。总之,NLR和PLR可能是区分CD患者与非CD对照的有效、易于获得且低成本的生物标志物。
