Specificity, Sensitivity and Usefulness Of Neutrophil Lymphocyte Ratio In The Follow-Up Of Patients After Helicobacter Pylori Eradication Treatment

Öz

Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the sensitivity and specificity of the NLR ratio in order to assess treatment effectiveness in the follow-up of patients who are endoscopic H. pylori-positive and administered eradication therapy. Materials and Methods: The Endoscopy Unit at Istanbul Medipol University Pendik Hospital evaluated 386 individuals who underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Neutrophil and lymphocyte counts, as well as neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratios (NLR), were compared in HP positive and negative patients. H. pylori eradication was performed on 205 HP-positive patients using a 2-week triple therapy. All patients had a complete blood count done at the same time, and NLR was computed and compared between the eradicated and non-eradicated groups. Results: H. pylori eradication was accomplished in 100 (48.7%) of the patients, whereas the stool antigen test was positive in 105 (51.3%) of the patients. There was a statistically significant difference in neutrophil counts (P<0.0001), lymphocyte counts (P<0.0001), and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (P<0.0001). The sensitivity and specificity in identifying Helicobacter pylori eradication were determined to be 90.5% and 85%, respectively when the cutoff value for the Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte ratio was set at 2.058. Conclusion: The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio was shown to be greater in HP (+) cases based on the parameters discovered in the complete blood count in our study. We believe that this measure might be used to monitor patients during and after therapy, but additional research with larger sample sizes is needed to assess changes in neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio as a follow-up indicator following successful HP eradication therapy.
