Leukocyte ratios in non-diabetic hypertensive Cameroonians do not predict cardiovascular risk  : preliminary results of the HYRICCA project

Prospective studies are needed to assess their usefulness in combination with conventional risk factors to improve prediction of cardiovascular events.PMID:37984238 | DOI:10.1016/j.ancard.2023.101679
