Implication

Cross-sectional descriptive study reveals that higher neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio indicates worse survival and more complications in children with acute pancreatitis.

Key Points

Elevated neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio indicates increased complications and mortality in pediatric patients.
In this study, 41.9% of children developed complications, most commonly ascites, linked to higher NLR.
Cross-sectional descriptive study conducted at Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition department over two years.
Findings suggest that NLR could be a prognostic indicator, warranting further multicenter research with larger samples.
