comparison of prediction potential of blood cell subtype ratios nlr and plr with existing potential predictors beta hcg and pregnancy associated plasma proteina pappa in preeclampsia

Abstract

To correlate the association between simple complete blood newlinecount parameters (CBC) and the occurrence of preeclampsia, newlinethereby enabling early prediction and management of the condition. newlineOBJECTIVES: newline1. To compare the prediction potential of blood cell subtype ratios newline(NLR and PLR) with the existing potential predictors beta HCG newlineand pregnancy associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A). newline2. To determine the specificity, sensitivity, positive and negative newlinepredictive values for NLR and PLR as first trimester tests for newlineprediction of preeclampsia. newline
