Does neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio be Significantly Decreased in Preemptive Renal Transplant Patients?
We showed that all ESRD patients had an increased inflammation rate according to CRP and NLR when compared with healthy controls. We also found that improvement of inflammatory state in preemptive patients is significantly better than nonpreemptive patients at the end of first year evaluation.
These observations provide evidence that NO and/or ONOO- are responsible for initiating cell damage, which leads to apoptosis in sickle cell mouse kidneys.
