Neutrophil ratio and infection in hospitalized patients
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial looks at whether a simple blood test measuring the ratio of two types of white blood cells (neutrophils and lymphocytes) can help tell how serious an infection is in people who are in the hospital with a confirmed microbial infection (like bacteria or a virus). It might help doctors better understand the body's response to infection.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are older than 18 years.
- You are currently in the hospital with a confirmed microbial infection (like from bacteria, virus, or fungus).
- You do not have a condition that weakens your immune system (like certain diseases or treatments).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study compares two blood test measurements (neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio and lactate/albumin ratio) to see which better predicts how severe an infection is in ICU patients with sepsis. It aims to find a simpler way to track inflammation.
This study looks at simple blood tests (like levels of certain white blood cells and a protein called procalcitonin) to see if they can predict how well people with sepsis will do in the intensive care unit. It may help doctors understand your infection better.
This trial checks if certain blood markers (CRP, CRP/albumin ratio, and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio) can predict how well sepsis patients with normal blood pressure will do. It aims to help doctors better manage infections and survival.
This study looks at blood test “markers” to tell the difference between infection and non-infectious illness. It may help doctors recognize infection earlier and avoid confusion with other conditions.
This study tests a new blood test (Microbio InfectID-BSI) to see how well it detects bacteria and yeast in patients with a possible bloodstream infection. If you are already having a blood culture done, the study will collect extra blood samples at the same time to compare the new test's results.
This study looks at specific immune cells and how fats are transported in the blood to predict which people will have a severe bacterial infection (like pneumonia or sepsis). Your results may help doctors identify higher-risk patients earlier.
