In consideration of the role that preoperative inflammatory indicators, such WBC count, play in diagnosing AL, we then examined WBC and other inflammatory indexes, including neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) [5], platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) [6], lymphocyte-monocyte ratio (LMR) [7] and platelet count × C-reactive protein level multiplier (P-CRP) value [8] with respect to AL, using ROC analyses. Here, CRP is linked to axial length measurement.
