- Alopecia Areata (AA) is an autoimmune disease that influences white blood cell activity, but previous research hasn't linked blood ratios to the condition's severity.
- A study comparing various blood cell ratios in over 147,000 AA patients and 141,000 healthy controls found higher Neutrophils-to-Lymphocytes Ratio (NLR) and Eosinophils-to-Lymphocytes Ratio (ELR) in AA patients, especially in those with moderate-severe cases.
- The findings suggest that these blood ratios could be useful for predicting and managing AA, contrary to earlier studies, making them a cost-effective tool for disease assessment.
Objective: Patients with chronic idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) commonly experience a high level of disability and low satisfaction with medical treatment. We aim to evaluate long-term functional improvement and patient satisfaction in IIH patients with similar symptoms by comparing venous sinus stenting (VSS) to standard medical therapy.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional questionnaire study of 111 IIH patients, comparing 37 adult female patients who underwent venous sinus stenting with 74 patients treated medically.
