Abstract

 

Coronary artery disease is a progressive inflammatory disease
with atherosclerosis playing pivotal role in its etiology. Neutrophil
lymphocyte ratio(NLR) is increased in inflammatory disease and an
independant predictor of adverse cardiac events. Large platelets are
metabolically and enzymatically more active with great prothrombotic
potential and thus resulting in adverse cardiovascular events. The purpose of this study was to find whether NLR and MPV can be used as biomarkers for predicting CAD in normal individuals without any known comorbidities. Hence a cross-sectional study which includes 80 normal healthy volunteers was conducted in the Department of Pathology and
Department of Biochemistry in our institution.
Keywords: NLR; MPV; CAD.
