Hematoma evacuation modifies the relationship between early changes in neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and mortality after intracerebral hemorrhage

Background Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a prognostic indicator in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) thought to reflect systemic inflammation driving secondary brain injury. Recent evidence ...
