The clinical value of lymphocyte percentages and the monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio in differentiating immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy from dermatomyositis
RDW and the MLR in IMNM and the NLR, MLR, and PLR in DM represent accessible and cost-effective biomarkers for assessing inflammation. Lymphocyte percentages and the MLR may serve as inexpensive and readily available supplementary markers for distinguishing IMNM from DM.
