dc.description.abstractOBJECTIVE: With this retrospective study, we researched the effects of mean platelet volume (MPV) and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) on the activity of Behcet's disease and susceptibility to thrombosis. PATIENTS AND METHODS: One hundred eighty- six patients with Behcet's disease, who met the inclusion criteria, were separated into two groups: 120 patients had active Behcet's disease (Group I) and 66 patients with inactive Behcet's disease (Group II). 79 healthy subjects as controls were included in the study. RESULTS: MPV was similar between all three groups. CRP (C reactive protein) was statistically higher in the active BD group when compared to the inactive BD group and the control group. CRP of the inactive BD and the healthy control group were similar. In addition, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) was found higher than the control group in both active and inactive BD groups, whereas ESR of the active BD group was higher than the inactive BD group. N/L ratio was found statistically higher in the active BD group when compared to inactive BD and healthy control groups, while the N/L ratio of inactive BD and healthy control groups were found similar to each other. While MPV, CRP, and NLR didn't statistically differ between active BD subgroups with and without thrombosis, ESR was statistically and significantly higher in the active BD group with thrombosis when compared to the active BD group without thrombosis. CONCLUSIONS: The data obtained from the present study showed that the patients with BD are exposed to chronic inflammation. And the N/L ratio may be a simple, inexpensive, and convenient diagnostic marker of active BD.en_US
