The relevance of practical laboratory markers in predicting gastrointestinal and renal involvement in children with Henoch-Sch önlein Purpura.

CONCLUSIONS: This study had shown that platelet counts, neutrophil counts, NLR and PLR were increasing and lymphocyte counts, MPV and MPR were decreasing when the patients had GIS involvement. However, these parameters were not relevant in distinguishing severe and mild GIS involvement. When patients had renal involvement NLR was the unique elevated parameter.
