Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The most commonly used parameters for the early diagnosis of bacterial infections, despite their limited use, are C-reactive protein, white blood cell count, and neutrophil count . Superior parameters include procalcitonin, pro-adrenomedullin, interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-8, but their use is limited by their lack of availability in some centers and their higher costs. Recently, the ratio of neutrophil count to lymphocyte count (NLR) has been proposed as an effective, simple, and useful biomarker for the early diagnosis of bacterial infections. However, these tests are used after the emergence of fever. As yet, no single parameter has been proposed for predicting postoperative fever in the absence of preoperative factors known to cause fever.
The aim of this study was to investigate whether neutrophil count, lymphocyte count, and NLR obtained from routine preoperative blood tests could be used in predicting fever following PNL in patients with no risk factors for infection.
