MPV and NLR as Predictors of SBP Diagnosis

January 20, 2023 updated by: Ahmed Abudeif Abdelaal, MD, Sohag University

Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) and Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) as Predictors of Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis in Cirrhotic Patients

The aim of the study is to investigate the clinical utility of mean platelet volume (MPV) and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) as diagnostic markers for spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP).
