High Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio and Patients With Hemodialysis

High Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio and Platelet-to-Lymphocyte Ratio Are Associated With Poor Survival in Patients With Hemodialysis

To explore the role of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio ( NLR ) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio ( PLR ) in predicting mortality in hemodialysis (HD) patients.

Inclusion Criteria:

• All cases with age ≥ 18 years from both sexes female and male, having end-stage renal disease (ESRD), who have been on hemodialysis for at least three months and divided to 4 groups according to the median of NLR and PLR

Exclusion Criteria:

• • Patients aged < 18 years old.

  • Patient with autoimmune disease.
  • Patient with liver cirrhosis.
  • Patients with immunodeficiency.
  • Patients with malignancy.
