Research Article: Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio associated with symptomatic saccular unruptured intracranial aneurysm
Introduction:
Unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) are pathologically confined dilations of the intracranial artery walls with a population prevalence of approximately 3.2%. They are the main cause of spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) [1]. Once an aneurysm ruptures, the disability and mortality rates are very high. Inflammation is thought to play an important role in the development, progression, and rupture of the intracranial aneurysm [2,3,4,5]. A large number of macrophages, white blood cells (WBCs), and…
