Reference Intervals for Hematological Inflammatory Ratios in Healthy Dogs.

ABSTRACT: Hematological inflammatory ratios such as the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte (NLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte (MLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte (PLR), and systemic inflammatory index (SII) have recently demonstrated prognostic value in acute inflammatory diseases, neoplastic conditions, hepatic and gastrointestinal pathologies, as well as acting as biomarkers for the early detection of tumors and cardiorespiratory diseases. In addition, they can be easily calculated and have no additional cost. The purpose of this study was to establish reference ranges for these ratios in the canine population, thereby providing support for clinical practice. Data was collected from previous studies. The dogs included in the study had to have anamnesis and physical examination without abnormalities and within referenc
