Purpose: To evaluate the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) levels, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in patients with dry eye disease (DED) and to compare with control subjects.
Methods: This prospective study included 47 DED patients and 47 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. Ophthalmological examination, diagnostic DED tests, and routine complete blood cell count parameters were analyzed. The SII value was calculated as follows: platelet count × (neutrophil/lymphocyte).
Results: The mean SII, NLR, and PLR levels were significantly higher in DED patients compared to controls ( < .001, < .001 and = .009, respectively). Using the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve analysis to predict patients with DED, the highest area under the curve (AUC) was determined SII (0.761 for SII, 0.727 for NLR, and 0.653 for PLR).
Conclusions: As a novel tool superior to other inflammatory markers, SII may be a cheap and reliable indicator of inflammatory status in DED patients.

Prognostic value of systemic immune-inflammation index in older patients with acute coronary syndrome.
Coron Artery Dis
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, University of Health Sciences, Şişli Hamidiye Etfal Education and Research Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey.
Objectives: Contemporary studies assessing the importance of the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) in older patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are scarce. This study investigated the impact and prognostic value of the SII regarding long-term mortality in older patients with ACS.
Methods: The study included 401 older patients aged 75 years and above admitted with ACS between May 2015 and December 2022.
Newly defined biomarker for the no reflow phenomenon in patients with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome; uric acid to creatinine ratio.

Cardiology Department, Bakırköy Dr. Sadi Konuk Training and Research Hospital, University of Health Sciences Turkey, Istanbul, Turkey.
Background: The present study aimed to investigate whether newly defined serum uric acid (SUA) to serum creatinine ratio (SUA/SCr) predicts no-reflow phenomenon (NRP) development in patients with non-ST-elevated acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS).
Methods: The study group was divided into two groups: those who developed NRP and those who did not. Complete blood counts, SUA, serum creatinine, C-reactive protein (CRP) and albumin were obtained at admission.

Background: This study aims to evaluate the prognostic value of the inflammatory indices i.e. Platelet Lymphocyte Ratio (PLR), Neutrophil Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR), and Systemic Immune Inflammation Index (SII) as potential predictors of Major Adverse Cardiovascular Event (MACE) in patients undergoing Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PPCI) on Saphenous Vein Graft (SVG) with a history of Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG).

Background: Esophagojejunal anastomotic fistula (EJF) following radical total gastrectomy is a severe perioperative complication in patients with gastric cancer, particularly as delayed fistula healing increases hospitalization costs and leads to poor prognosis. Numerous factors influence the occurrence and progression of EJF, with inflammation and nutritional status being significant contributors to perioperative complications. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the prediction of delayed EJF healing based on postoperative clinical and imaging-related inflammation-nutrition status.

Objectives: To investigate the roles of the systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) and other biochemical markers obtained from maternal blood in determining the diagnosis and severity of pregnancy cholestasis.
Material And Methods: In this retrospective case-control study, a total of 815 pregnant women including 546 healthy pregnant women [serum total bile acid (TBA) level < 10 μmol/L, control group], 185 patients with mild cholestasis [serum TBA level < 40 μmol/L, mild intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) group] and 84 patients with severe cholestasis (serum TBA level ≥ 40 μmol/L, severe ICP group) were evaluated. The groups were compared regarding demographic data, clinical characteristics, SIRI (neutrophilcount*monocytecount/lymphocyte count), and other laboratory data.
