The Neutrophil‐to‐Lymphocyte Ratio Is an Independent Inflammatory Biomarker for Adverse Events in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation: Insights From the Murcia AF Project II (MAFP‐II) Cohort Study
In this prospective AF cohort receiving VKAs, elevated NLR was significantly associated with an increased risk of adverse clinical outcomes. NLR has independent prognostic value beyond other classical risk factors.
