May mark early vascular dysfunction in low-risk patients; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation before any clinical role.
Li et al. (2012) conducted a cross-sectional in Low cardiovascular risk (n=357). Highest quintile of neutrophil count vs. Lower quintiles of neutrophil count was evaluated on Peripheral vascular dysfunction (reactive hyperemia index ≤ 1.67) (OR 2.36, 95% CI 1.35-4.12, p=0.003). The highest quintile of neutrophil count was independently associated with peripheral vascular dysfunction in individuals with low cardiovascular risk (OR 2.36).
