The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio levels over time correlate to all-cause hospital mortality in sepsis

This research aims to investigate the prognosis value using the time-weighted average neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (TWA-NLR) for predicting all-cause hospital mortality among sepsis patients. Data were analyzed through the use of the eICU Collaborative Research Database (eICU-CRD 2.0) as well as Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV 2.2 (MIMIC-IV 2.2).
