Abstract:
Objective To explore the value of diagnostic and differential diagnostic with the Neutrophil‐lymphocyte count ratio (NLCR) and C‐reactive protein cmmunity‐acquired pneumonia(CAP) .Methods The NLCR ,as well as white blood cell counts , neutrophil count ,lymphocyte count and the concentration of CRP were measured in 40 patients with bacterial pneumonia ,40 pa‐tients with mycoplasma pneumonia ,40 patients with viral pneumonia and 40 healthy subjects ,and the results was analyzed by statis‐tical methods .Results In bacterial group ,the NLCR and the concentration of CRP were significantly higher than those in myco‐plasma group ,viral group and normal controls(P<0 .05) .According to the results of ROC curve analysis in the diagnosis of bacte‐rial CAP ,the areas of NLCR and CRP under ROC curve are 0 .911 and 0 .896 ,respectively ,which have good diagnostic sensitivity and specificity .Conclusion The NLCR and CRP in peripheral blood have great significance in diagnosis and differential diagnosis of bacterial community‐acquired pneumonia .
