Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio: an accurate method for diagnosing infection in cirrhosis

Rui De Sousa Magalhaes et al.

Summary: NLR levels at admission are associated with higher risk of infection in cirrhotic patients admitted with first decompensation. High NLR values are linked to increased infection odds.

Predictors of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis in Romanian adults with liver cirrhosis: Focus on the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio

Roxana-Emanuela Popoiag et al.

Summary: This study aimed to analyze the risk factors for spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) in patients with liver cirrhosis, with the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) being a predictive factor. Serum white blood cells, total platelet count, total bilirubin, and other factors were also observed to be associated with the occurrence of SBP.

Neutrophils in liver diseases: pathogenesis and therapeutic targets

Kai Liu et al.

Summary: Previously considered a homogeneous population, recent data have shown that neutrophils are diverse and involved in tissue damage and immune regulation. Their phenotypic and functional plasticity has been identified in various diseases, including cancer, inflammatory disorders, and infections. Neutrophils play a role in liver diseases through their autocrine, paracrine, and immune modulation functions.
