Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio predicting poor outcome after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: A retrospective study and updated meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The relationship between neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and poor outcome of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is controversial. We aim to evaluate the relationship between NLR on admission and the poor outcome after aSAH.

Method

Part I: Retrospective analysis of aSAH patients in our center. Baseline characteristics of patients were collected and compared. Multivariate analysis was used to evaluate parameters independently related to poor outcome. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to determine the best cut-off value of NLR. Part II: Systematic review and meta-analysis of relevant literature. Related literature was selected through the database. The pooled odds ratio (OR) and corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) were
