Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 65 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study population consists of adult patients aged 18-65 years who undergo elective septorhinoplasty under general anesthesia. All participants are managed according to standard clinical practice and are admitted to the Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) postoperatively, where early pain assessments and routine clinical monitoring are performed. Eligible patients have a complete preoperative hemogram obtained within 30 days prior to surgery and comprehensive postoperative records, including pain scores and vital signs. Patients with conditions or treatments that could significantly affect inflammatory markers or pain perception are excluded to ensure a homogeneous study population

Who may be able to join

  • Adult patients aged 18-65 years
  • Patients undergoing elective septorhinoplasty
  • Surgery performed under general anesthesia
  • Complete recording of early postoperative VAS pain scores, Aldrete scores, NUDES scores, and vital signs in the Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU)
  • Preoperative complete blood count (hemogram) performed within 30 days prior to surgery
  • Clinical records and hospital information system data that are complete, accessible, and adequate for analysis

Who cannot join

  • Patients undergoing emergency surgery
  • Septorhinoplasty combined with additional major surgical procedures (e.g., advanced ENT or maxillofacial surgery)
  • Presence of known hematological disease, active infection, immunosuppressive therapy, or advanced liver or renal failure
  • Chronic opioid use or regular analgesic medication use in the preoperative period
  • History of significant clinical events between the preoperative hemogram and surgery that could alter inflammatory status (e.g., infection, hospitalization, additional surgery)
  • Incomplete or missing data regarding preoperative hemogram parameters or PACU pain scores

About this study

Official title: The Relationship Between Preoperative Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio and Hemogram Parameters and Early Postoperative Pain Scores in Patients Undergoing Septorhinoplasty

This prospective, observational study investigates the relationship between early oxygen exposure and oxidative stress in adult intensive care unit patients with sepsis or septic shock. Fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO₂) administered during the first 24 hours of ICU admission will be recorded and analyzed in relation to changes in the uric acid/albumin ratio (UAR), a biomarker reflecting oxidative burden and inflammation. Serum uric acid and albumin levels will be measured at baseline and at 24 hours, and the percentage change in UAR will be calculated. Secondary analyses will examine associations between UAR changes, oxygenation indices, and 28-day mortality. The study aims to determine whether higher FiO₂ exposure is associated with increased oxidative stress and to evaluate the potential role of UAR as a clinically accessible marker of oxygen-related oxidative injury in septic ICU patients.

Observational Study

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Observational StudyOther

    Not applicable. This is a prospective observational study. No intervention or alteration to standard treatment protocols will be performed. Clinical and laboratory data obtained during routine care, including preoperative hemogram parameters and early postoperative pain scores, will be recorded and analyzed without influencing patient management.

What is being measured

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

  1. Early Postoperative Pain Severity

    early postoperative pain severity, as measured using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). 0: no pain, 10 worst pain

    Measured: Within the first 60 minutes after admission to the Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio and Septorhinoplasty, run by Istinye University.

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 6 inclusion and 6 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jan 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact İLKE DOLĞUN (+905555485632, ilkeser2004@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Early Postoperative Pain Severity (time frame: Within the first 60 minutes after admission to the Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU).). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT07353138, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 20 Jan 2026.
