| Description |
The blood neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has recently been identified as a potential predictor of systemic inflammation in several diseases. In optic neuritis (ON) and multiple sclerosis (MS) the NLR has been found significantly higher than in healthy controls (HC). Also, the NLR is found to be higher in relapses over remitting phases and in recurrent ON. This study evaluates the significance of NLR in ON and MS patients. The NLR is also measured in relation to relapse and remission. Monosymptomatic ON may be considered as a model of a first attack of MS. |
