Popis: Objective: A retrospective study was conducted to explore the immune-inflammatory responses in sudden sensorineural hearing Loss (SSNHL) patients with different audiogram shapes. Methods: One hundred and ten inpatients with SSNHL were assigned to 4 subgroups according to the audiogram shape and treated with systemic methylprednisolone. The numbers of white blood cells, neutrophils, lymphocytes, platelets, and monocytes were counted. The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and the monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR) were calculated and statistically analyzed. Results: Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, MLR, and systemic immune index (SII) of SSNHL patients were significantly higher than the control group, while PLR was not statistically significant. There were no statistical differences in NLR, PLR, MLR, and SII among the 4 subgroups. Conclusion: Immune-inflammatory response may be a common pathogenesis in all SSNHL patients with different audiogram shapes. The predictive value of these hematologic markers needs further research in the future.
