OBJECTIVE: In this study, our aim was to investigate whether Monocyte/HDL ratio is a marker of the prognosis of the idiopathic sudden hearing loss (ISHL).
STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective, case-control clinical trial.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: 45 patients, who were diagnosed with idiopathic sudden hearing loss and were treated with the same therapy regime and 47 healthy volunteers, who applied to the hospital for routine controls and had audiological and laboratory examination between March 2014 and December 2015, were included in the study. Monocyte/HDL ratios of the patients in the study and control groups were calculated from the results of the blood counts and biochemical analysis. Additionally, the study group was divided into two sub-groups regarding their responses (responders and non-responders) to the treatment determined by the audiological examination, which was carried out after 3 months according to the Siegel criteria. The Monocyte/HDL ratios between the groups were statistically evaluated.
RESULTS: There was no statistically significant difference between the MHRs of the study and control groups (p=0.574). However, the MHR was significantly higher in the non-responders? group compared with the responders? group, although they were treated with the same therapy regimen (p=0.005).
CONCLUSION: There was no difference in MHRs between study and control groups. However, as MHR was higher in the patients with good prognosis compared with the patients with bad prognosis, we believe that regarding the ISHL, MHR is not a predictive value but might have prognostic marker.
