Serial Changes in Blood-Cell-Count-Derived and CRP-Derived Inflammatory Indices of COVID-19 Patients.

ABSTRACT: The aim of the study was to investigate the serial changes in inflammatory indices derived from blood cell counts and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in COVID-19 patients with good and poor outcomes. We retrospectively analyzed the serial changes in the inflammatory indices in 169 COVID-19 patients. Comparative analyses were performed on the first and last days of a hospital stay or death and serially from day 1 to day 30 from the symptom onset. On admission, non-survivors had higher CRP to lymphocytes ratio (CLR) and multi-inflammatory index (MII) values than survivors, while at the time of discharge/death, the largest differences were found for the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), and MII. A significant decrease in NLR, CLR, and MII by th
