摘要: 脓毒症是对感染的反应失调引起的危及生命的器官功能障碍。在脓毒症的免疫病理机制中,先天免疫系统和适应性免疫系统都起到了重要作用。中性粒细胞/淋巴细胞(NLR)作为一种新兴的炎症标志物,反应了先天(中性粒细胞)和适应性细胞免疫反应(淋巴细胞)之间的关系。同时与其他生物标志物相比,NLR具有容易获得、易于重复且低成本的特点。本文将会就中性粒细胞/淋巴细胞在脓毒症中的免疫病理以及其在诊断、预后等方面的价值研究进行综述。
Abstract: Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by the imbalance of response to infection. In the immunopathological mechanism of sepsis, both the innate immune system and the adaptive immune system play an important role. As a new inflammatory marker, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) reflects the relationship between congenital (neutrophil) and adaptive cellular immune response (lymphocyte). At the same time, compared with other biomarkers, NLR is easy to obtain, easy to repeat and low cost. This article will review the immunopathology of neutrophils/ lympho-cytes in sepsis and its value in diagnosis and prognosis.
