Abstract:
Neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a inflammatory indicator, which can be easily calculated from the results of complete blood cell count. More and more studies have shown that NLR has its unique value in the diagnosis, and evaluation of severity, complications, treatment efficacy and prognosis of skin diseases. This article reviews the recent progress on the application of NLR in clinical management of skin diseases, such as psoriasis, systemic lupus erythematosus and Behcet disease.
