The aim of the study was to evaluate the value of mean platelet volume (MPV) and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) to predict single-dose methotrexate (MTX) treatment success in ectopic pregnancy (EP).
A total of 115 EP diagnosed and hemodynamically stable women were enrolled in the study and divided into two groups as group 1, the treatment success group (n= 78) and group 2, the treatment failure group (n = 37). The authors compared the groups in terms of MPV and NLR.
MPV and NLR levels were higher in MTX treatment successful group than in failure group.The cut-off values of MPV and NLR were determined as 10.1 fL and 1.82, respectively. These cut off values showed similar sensitivity and specificity in prediction of MTX treat- ment success.
MPV and NLR can be used as reliable markers to predict single-dose MTX treatment success however further studies are needed.
本研究旨在评估平均血小板体积(MPV)和中性粒细胞/淋巴细胞比值(NLR)对预测单剂量甲氨蝶呤(MTX)治疗异位妊娠(EP)成功的价值。
本研究共纳入115例经诊断且血流动力学稳定的异位妊娠女性,并将其分为两组,即治疗成功组(n = 78)和治疗失败组(n = 37)。作者比较了两组的MPV和NLR。
MTX治疗成功组的MPV和NLR水平高于失败组。MPV和NLR的截断值分别确定为10.1 fL和1.82。这些截断值在预测MTX治疗成功方面显示出相似的敏感性和特异性。
MPV和NLR可作为预测单剂量MTX治疗成功的可靠标志物,然而仍需要进一步研究。
