PLATELET LYMPHOCYTE AND NEUTROPHIL-LYMPHOCYTE RATIO WITH MORTALITY AND PROGNOSIS IN RAPIDLY PROGRESSIVE GLOMERULONEPHRITIS

Abstract

Background: Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis, or RPGN, is a clinical illness that manifests as a rapid loss
of renal function and the symptoms of nephritic syndrome.
Aim: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between prognostic markers, platelet-tolymphocyte
ratio (PLR) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in individuals with RPGN (rapidly progressing
glomerulonephritis) and the pathological results of renal biopsy.
Methods: The individuals in this retrospective analysis with a minimum of six months' worth of data were
evaluated and had just been diagnosed with RPGN (rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis). All research
participants had their eGFR (estimated glomerular filtration rate), albumin levels, CRP (C-reactive protein) levels,
and CRP/albumin ratio assessed.
