- Abstract
Background. This study is aimed at investigating the relationship between neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and hyperhomocysteinemia (HHCY) in patients with ischemic stroke (IS). Methods. This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical data and laboratory results of 110 IS patients. According to the cut-off value of HCY = 15 μ mol / L , the included patients were divided into the normal HCY (NHCY, n = 69) and the high HCY (HHCY, n = 41) groups. The relationship between NLR, PLR, and HCY between these groups was then compared. Results. NLR and PLR levels in IS patients with HHCY were significantly higher than those in IS patients without HHCY (P < 0.05). Correlation analysis showed that NLR and PLR were positively correlated with hs-CRP, RDW, N, L, and HCY (P < 0.05). NLR and PLR were the largest predictors of IS-related HHCY, followed by WBC, hs-CRP, RDW, VLDL, and TG. Additionally, NLR and PLR were independent risk factors for IS-related HHCY. Conclusions. NLR and PLR may be fast, cheap, and easy-to-analyze biomarkers for predicting IS-related HHCY.
