Predictive value of platelet to lymphocyte ratio for in-hospital outcome of patients admitted with diagnosis of exacerbation of COPD with type II respiratory failure
Our study shows that the mean P/L at the time of admission was significantly higher in COPD patients with type II respiratory failure who died during hospitalization compared to those who were discharged. These findings suggest that the P/L could serve as potential prognostic biomarker for in-hospital mortality risk in COPD exacerbations.
