Red Cell Distribution Width and Neutrophil Lymphocyte Ratio as A New Biomarker for Severity in Rheumatoid Arthritis and its Comparison with DAS 28 ESR Score

Red Cell Distribution Width and Neutrophil Lymphocyte Ratio as A New Biomarker for Severity in Rheumatoid Arthritis and its Comparison with DAS 28 ESR Score

Objective: To determine the association of red cell distribution width (RDW)and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR)with the severity of rheumatoid arthritis by using DAS28 ESR. Additionally, toxic granulations were assessed as an indicator of disease severity. Study Design: Cross-sectional study....
