Article Synopsis
- High neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) significantly impacts mortality rates in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), particularly those with diabetes.
- The study, conducted in a cardiology unit in Peshawar, included 185 patients aged 40-70, finding an in-hospital mortality rate of 14.6%, with diabetes being a significant risk factor.
- Other factors like age, gender, BMI, hypertension, and smoking did not show a considerable correlation with mortality rates, prompting the need for further research to confirm these findings.
