Abstract

We read with great interest the article titled “Evaluation and Diagnostic Effectiveness of Hemogram, Biochemistry and Inflammatory Markers (Immature Granulocyte, Procalcitonin, CRP, NLR, PLR) in Patients with Sepsis” prepared by Gedik and Çiftçioğlu and published in the second issue of your journal in 2023. We would like to thank the authors and the editorial board for this descriptive study sharing data from a tertiary hospital in Kahramanmaraş province. However, we would like to touch upon a few points that may contribute to the discussion of the study.

Keywords

sepsis, septic shock, emergency services, intencive care units, mortality
