Visual prognostic value of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio in behÇet uveitis

This study comprised 114 eyes from 114 patients diagnosed with Behçet uveitis. Ophthalmologic evaluations and biochemical measurements including NLR and PLR values were consecutively obtained at each visit. Patients were divided into good and poor visual outcome groups, based on the visual acuity of 0.5 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution in the worse-seeing eyes at the last visit. Factors associated with poor visual outcomes were analyzed, and optimal cutoff values of NLR and PLR were also evaluated.

Results:

Sixty-six eyes (57.9%) were included in the good visual outcome group. Multivariate regression analysis showed that younger age of onset (odds ratio = 0.939; P = 0.010), longer disease duration (odds ratio = 1.164; P
