Utility of modified Laboratory Risk Indicator for Necrotizing Fasciitis (MLRINEC) score in distinguishing necrotizing from non-necrotizing soft tissue infections

Po-Han Wu et al.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the MLRINEC score in distinguishing necrotizing fasciitis (NF) from other soft-tissue infections. The MLRINEC score showed high sensitivity and specificity in differentiating NF, with a cutoff value of 12 points. Patients with a MLRINEC score > 12 points should be highly suspected of having necrotizing fasciitis.

Differentiating Lower Extremity Necrotizing Soft Tissue Infection from Severe Cellulitis by Laboratory Parameters and Relevant History Points

Kai-Hsiang Wu et al.

Summary: Elevated lactate, subjective fever, male gender, and intravenous substance abuse were significantly associated with the diagnosis of NSTI over severe cellulitis in patients with lower extremity infections, according to multivariate statistical analysis and clinical interpretation. Further study of these factors in clinical practice can improve differential diagnosis and patient care.
