The relationship between disease activity with pan-immune-inflammatory value and systemic immune-inflammation index in rheumatoid arthritis.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, systemic inflammatory disease. Immune system cells have an important role in RA. Our aim was to investigate the relationship between disease activity, systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), and pan-immune-inflammation value (PIV) levels in RA patients. We planned to investigate whether these 2 measurements have an advantage over each other. About 67 patients diagnosed with RA and 49 healthy controls included in this study. RA was diagnosed based on 2010 ACR classification criteria. In this cross-sectional study, peripheral blood tests, C-reactive protein (CRP), hemogram, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate levels were noted after the physical examination of all participants. PIV was calculated with the formula: (neutrophil count × platelet count × monocyte count) / lymphocyte count. SII was calculated as follows: (neutrophil count × monocytes count) / lymphocyte count. The disease activity score 28 (DAS28) were noted in patients with RA. CRP values of active RA group were significantly higher than remission RA and control groups (P < .001), control and remission RA groups were similar (P = .86). PIV and SII are significantly higher in active RA than remission RA and control (P < .001, P < .001) higher in remission RA than control (P < .001, P < .001). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis in predicting remission compared to the control group, CRP was not significant, PIV and SII was significant and PIV has higher sensitivity and sensitivity, a PIV value of > 217.31 have sensitivity 75.0% and specificity 85.7%. CRP, PIV, and SII are statistically significant in predicting active RA compared to the remission RA and control group. Our findings show that PIV, and SII are easy, inexpensive and reliable markers predicting remission in RA patients. CRP was not significant compared to remission RA and control group, PIV and SII was significant and PIV has higher sensitivity and specificity than SII in the remission group in RA. Patients with high disease activity, PIV, SII, and CRP levels were effective in showing disease activity compared to RA remission group and healthy controls.
