Trial summary

Neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a marker of systemic inflammation and endothelial dysfunction. In recent years, it has been reported that the individual components of the differential white cell count, specifically the neutrophil and lymphocyte counts,may have clinical utility in predicting diseases.

About this study

Official title: the Predictive Value of neutrophil-to Lymphocyte Ratio on Preeclampsia- Eclampsia

Neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a marker of systemic inflammation and endothelial dysfunction. In recent years, it has been reported that the individual components of the differential white cell count, specifically the neutrophil and lymphocyte counts,may have clinical utility in predicting diseases. An elevated NLR has been shown to be a prognostic indicator in various malignancies. İn the literature, many studies have been shown that NLR have predictive value in determining the prognosis of various diseases (cardiac or noncardiac diseases ). However, little is known about the predictive values of NLR in pregnancy complications. This study aimed to evaluate the potential predictive value of NLR in preeclampsia- eclampsia.

In recent years, have been reported that the individual components of the differential white cell count, specifically the neutrophil and lymphocyte counts, may have clinical utility in predicting diseases.

An elevated NLR has been shown to be a prognostic indicator in various malignancies. İn the literatüre have been shown that NLR have predictive value in determining the prognosis of various diseases (cardiac or noncardiac diseases.However, little is known about the predictive values of NLR and PLR in gestational DM, preeclampsia and the other pregnancy complications.

Retrospective data were collected for patients who was diagnosed with , preeclampsia- eclampsia, The NLR was defined as the absolute neutrophil count divided by the absolute lymphocyte count.

Being tested

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. the effect of neutrophil lymphocyte ratio in preeclampsia eclampsia

    during 6 months ,the patients who was recorded with preeclampsi/eclampsia at our hospital ,first trimester whole blood count was taken and neutrophil lymphocyte ratio was calculated and recorded

    Measured: up to 6 months

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Mar 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the effect of neutrophil lymphocyte ratio in preeclampsia eclampsia (time frame: up to 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Mar 2014.
