Abstract

A recent study conducted by the National University of Medical Sciences (NUMS) compared the diagnostic accuracy of high neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio levels with leukocytosis in detecting acute cholecystitis. The study included 118 patients with a clinical diagnosis of acute cholecystitis, and the diagnosis was confirmed using contrast-enhanced computed tomography. The results showed that both the total leukocyte count and the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio were equally effective in diagnosing acute cholecystitis in clinically diagnosed patients. This research provides valuable insights into the diagnostic methods for acute cholecystitis. [Extracted from the article]
