Özet
Objective: The neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is an inexpensive, readily available and reliable inflammatory marker, which has a predictor value in different cardiovascular disorders. Functional capacity is one of the most important prognostic factors in patients with heart failure, which is usually stated as metabolic equivalents (MET). The goal of the study was to investigate the relationship between the NLR and functional capacity (FC) in patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDC).
