The association between hemogram parameters and the development of contrast-induced nephropathy in patients presenting with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction

Abstract

Hemogram parameters such as mean platelet volume (MPV), neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLr), red cell distribution width and platelet distribution width are widely used inflammatory indicators to assess prognosis in various cardiovascular diseases. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of hemogram parameters to predict the development of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in patients presenting with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (non-STEMI) and treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
