Evaluation of inflammation in obesity and chronic kidney disease with hemogram parameters
(2021) Bozacı, İlter; Tatar, Erhan
Aim: Chronic inflammation is involved in the pathogenesis of both obesity and chronic kidney disease (CKD). We aimed to evaluate the parameters derived from complete blood count (CBC) as inflammatory markers in obese patients and obese CKD patients. Methods: Individuals enrolled in the study were divided into three groups. Group-1 was composed of obese patients; group-2 was composed of obese CKD patients and group-3 was composed of healthy individuals as the control group. This study was conducted at a training and research hospital over 6 months period. Results: Forty-one patients were in group-1; 41 patients were in group-2 and 22 individuals were in group-3. White blood cell count (WBC) was significantly higher in group-1 and group-2 compared with group-3 (7,5±1,4 x103/µL vs 8,4±2,4 x103/µL vs 6,5±1,3 x103/µL, respectively, p<0.001) and neutrophile to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) was significantly higher in group-1 and group-2 compared with group-3 (1,9±0,7 vs 2,5±1,5 vs 1,7±0,4, respectively, p<0.001). NLR and WBC was found positively correlated with systolic blood pressure, urea, creatinine, uric acid, whereas negatively correlated with estimated glomerular filtration rate. Conclusion: It is important to determine significant results in CBC derived markers that are widely used in routine clinical practice as inflammatory markers.
