Effect of systemic isotretinoin use on neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio in acne patients: A retrospective study
Öz
Objective: Acne vulgaris (AV) describes a chronic inflammatory condition that occurs in the pilosebaceous unit, which is common in the community. Increase in sebum production, abnormal follicular keratinization, Propionibacterium acnes (P.acnes) colonization and inflammation play a role in acne development. ISO, comedolytic, is the only agent that has an effect on all four conditions that determine the pathogenesis of acne, such as a large reduction in sebaceous gland size, suppression of sebum production and reduction in inflammation. In this study, it was aimed to compare the N/L ratio values at the beginning of the treatment and at the 4th month of the treatment in acne vulgaris patients receiving systemic ISO treatment. Material and Method 50 patients with acne vulgaris who applied to the dermatology outpatient clinics of Karaman Training and Research Hospital between October 2020 and February 2021, had moderate and severe acne vulgaris and were started on oral isotretinoin were included in the study. The medical records of the patients were reviewed retrospectively. The neutrophil/lymphocyte (N/L) ratio values of the patients at the beginning of Isotretinoin treatment and after four months were recorded. Results The mean age of the patients was 23.1±6.23, 52.0% (26 persons) were male. There was a significant decrease in the N/L ratio in total and in both genders with isotretinoin use (p<0.01). A positive correlation was found between the initial and post-treatment N/L rates. Conclusion Prospective studies with larger series and control groups may show that N/L ratio may be an important parameter in the follow-up of acne vulgaris patients receiving systemic therapy.
