Abstract

Background: Preeclampsia & its related problems have potential contribution to maternal mortality & morbidity. Early diagnosis & appropriate management of preeclampsia can prevent antenatal, intranatal & postnatal complications associated with preeclampsia. The neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) which is derived from a complete blood count & dedifferentiation, is a straightforward inflammatory index (1). Pre-existing studies have shown that NLR is indicator of Preeclampsia.

Objective of this Narrative Review: In this we summarized the evidence regarding the clinical utility of NLR in preeclampsia & its related complications.

Methods: A comprehensive systematic search from PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, VIP database for relevant literature. Sensitivity, specificity & other measures of accuracy of NLR for the diagnosis of PE were pooled.
