The adjunctive role of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio in risk stratification for clinical chorioamnionitis in term pregnancies with meconium-stained amniotic fluid
NLR at admission was independently associated with clinical chorioamnionitis in term pregnancies complicated by MSAF. Incorporating NLR into a predictive model enhanced risk stratification, suggesting that NLR could be a practical biomarker for early identification of increased risk of infection among women with MSAF.
