Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio predicted cerebral infarction and poor discharge functional outcome in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: A propensity score matching analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Neutrophil-lymphocyte-ratio (NLR) and platelet-lymphocyte-ratio (PLR) have emerged as potential biomarkers in predicting the outcomes of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Since a study was never conducted on the Southeast Asian and Indonesian population, we designed the present study to evaluate the potential of NLR and PLR in predicting cerebral infarction and functional outcomes and find the optimal cutoff value.

Methods

We retrospectively reviewed patients admitted for aSAH in our hospital between 2017 and 2021. The diagnosis was made using a computed tomography (CT) scan or magnetic resonance imaging and CT angiography. Association between admission NLR and PLR and the outcomes were analyzed using a multivariable regression model. A receiver operating
