Popis: | Aim Recent studies showed a compare complete blood count (CBC) with its related measurements, including neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte to lymphocyte ratio (MLR), and platelet to lymphocyte ratio, are a simple and affordable test for inflammatory markers. The aim of this controlled study is to compare CBC inflammatory markers in substance-induced psychosis (SIP) and substance-free acute psychotic disorder (SF-APD) and to evaluate whether these CBC inflammation values can be used in diagnosis. Methods This retrospective study was conducted with the data of 76 SF-APD patients (including 60 cases of first-episode psychosis [FEP]), 98 SIP patients (including 48 cases of FEP), and 32 controls. Results Patients with SF-APD and SIP had higher white blood cell counts, neutrophil and monocyte counts, and MLR than controls. An increased NLR was more distinct in SF-APD, while an increased MLR was observed in APD (both SF and SI) and FEP groups more than in the controls. A receiver operating characteristic analysis showed that the NLR could contribute to the identification of SF-APD (52.6% sensitivity and 12.5% specificity, area under curve [AUC] = 0.704, 2.47 cutoff value) while an MLR could contribute to the identification of APD (70.1% sensitivity and 12.5% specificity, AUC = 0.842) as well as FEP (71.3% sensitivity and 12.5% specificity AUC = 0.831) with 0.26 cutoff value. Conclusions An NLR and MLR might be of interest for inflammatory processes involved in acute and first-episode psychotic events, regardless of substance involvement. |
