Association of Preoperative Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio with Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury and Mortality Following Major Noncardiac Surgeries

ConclusionsOur results indicated that preoperative NLR is associated with the prevalence of postoperative AKI and in-hospital mortality that occur after major noncardiac surgery. These findings suggest that NLR has the potential to be a significant correlation biomarker associated with perioperative risk assessment of patients undergoing noncardiac surgeries.
