Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio as a predictor of prognosis in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To evaluate the predictive value of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) for prognosis spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients.

Methods

PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science were used for screening literature on NLR predicting ICH prognosis from database up to January 2024. Case-control or cohort studies that provided statistical analysis data on NLR predicting ICH prognosis were included. Data were combined using odds ratio (OR) and standard mean differences (SMD) for categorical variables and continuous variables, respectively. Meta-analysis, subgroup analyses, and sensitivity analyses were performed by Review Manager 5.4 and Stata 15.0.

Results

Meta-analysis of 21 studies with a total of 7,176 patients confirmed that NLR has a s
