Özet
ObjectiveIn recent years, an increasing number of evidences suggests that inflammation plays a significant role in the pathophysiology of pulmonary embolism. Although the association between inflammatory markers and pulmonary embolism prognosis has been previously reported, no studies have investigated the ability of the C-reactive protein/albumin ratio, defined as an inflammation-based prognostic score, to predict death in patients experiencing a pulmonary embolism.Materials and methodsThis retrospective study included 223 patients experiencing a pulmonary embolism. The study population was divided into two groups according to their C-reactive protein/albumin ratio values and analyzed whether the C-reactive protein/albumin ratio was an independent predictor of late-term mortality. Then, the performance of the C-reactive protein/albumin ratio in predicting patients’ outcomes was further compared …
