Objective:To evaluate the predictive value of systemic inflammatory markers derived from com-plete blood counts in patients with diabetic vitreous hemorrhage(DVH).Methods:This retrospective case-control study included 41 DVH patients and 41 age-and sex-matched diabetic patients without di-abetic retinopathy(control group).Venous blood samples were collected from all participants for counts,and differences in inflammatory markers were recorded and compared.Results:In this study,neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)and the ratio of neutrophils and hemoglobin to lymphocytes(NHL)values were significantly higher in the DVH group as compared with the control group(P<0.05),whereas there were no statistically significant differences in the platelet-to-lymphocyte ra-tio(PLR)and systemic immune-inflammation index(SII)(P>0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that NLR(OR=29.756,95%CI:3.504-252.670,P=0.002)was a risk factor for DVH and NHL(OR=0.981,95%CI:0.967-0.995,P=0.007)was a protective factor.The receiver operat-ing characteristic(ROC)curve was used to predict DVH.The area under the curve(AUC)was 0.70 for NLR and 0.63 for NHL.Conclusion:NLR and NHL were simple and inexpensive inflammatory biomarkers for predicting DVH.NLR was superior to other inflammatory biomarkers.
