| Core Tip |
This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluate the prognostic value of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis (HD). Elevated NLR was significantly associated with increased all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in this population. By pooling adjusted hazard ratios and assessing heterogeneity and diagnostic performance via the area under the curve, the study highlights NLR as a potentially valuable and accessible biomarker for risk stratification in HD patients. Findings support its clinical use, while emphasizing the need for standardized cutoffs and prospective validation. |
