Abstract

Authors’ conclusions: the neutrophils to lymphocytes ratio can be used as a marker of gastrointestinal involvement in patients with Henoch-Schönlein purpura.

Reviewers’ commentary: despite being based on case-control studies, the results of this systematic review provide evidence for the use of the ratio between neutrophils and lymphocytes as a marker of gastrointestinal involvement in patients with Henoch-Schönlein purpura, it should be added its accessibility and easy determination.
