Year: 2024
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: Background: The ratio of red blood cell distribution width (RDW) to platelet ratio (RPR) may have prognostic value in several inflammation-related diseases. However, few studies have been conducted on the value of RPR for predicting the severity of pyogenic liver abscess (PLA).
