PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to determine whether the C-reactive protein to albumin ratio was associated with the prognosis in patients with Bell's palsy.
METHODS: Reviewing records of 79 patients diagnosed with Bell's palsy, 3 groups were constituted: recovered group (with a House Brackman grade of 1 or 2 after treatment, 56 patients), unrecovered group (23 patients) and control group (60 healthy individuals). Age, hemoglobin, C-reactive protein to albumin ratio, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, platelet to lymphocyte ratio, white blood cell and hemoglobin values were compared among the groups.
RESULTS: Age, hemoglobin and platelet to lymphocyte ratio were not significantly different between the groups (p = 0.12, p = 0.31, p = 0.86 and p = 0.87, respectively). Median C-reactive protein to albumin ratio, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio and white blood cell were significantly greater both in non-recovery group (p < 0.001) and recovery group (p = 0.001 and p < 0.001, respectively) compared to the control group. Additionally, median C-reactive protein to albumin ratio and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio were significantly greater in the non-recovery group, compared to the recovery group (p = 0.002, and p < 0.001, respectively). However, median white blood cell did not significantly differ between the non-recovery and the recovery groups (p = 0.89).
CONCLUSION: Higher C-reactive protein to albumin ratio and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio were associated with poor prognosis in patients with Bell's palsy. C-reactive protein to albumin ratio might be the most significant indicator of poor prognosis in patients with Bell's palsy.
