The Effect of General and Spinal Anesthesia on Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte Ratio

The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of anesthetic techniques (general and spinal anesthesia) on umbilical cord neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and mean platelet volume (MPV) in patients undergoing cesarean section.

About this study

This study was designed to evaluate the effects of anesthetic techniques (general and spinal anesthesia) on umbilical cord NLR, PLR and MPV in patients undergoing cesarean section.

The primary endpoint was to compare the effects of general and spinal anesthesia on umbilical cord NLR. Secondary endpoints were determined the general and spinal anesthesia on routine umbilical cord PLR, MPV and newborn Apgar scores at 1st and 5th min.
