Abstract





Objective:
The aim of this study was to compare the complete blood count values of 40
healthy individuals and 60 patients who are using antiepileptic drugs (AEDs),
specifically to evaluate neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR),
monocyte-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and
basophil-lymphocyte ratio (BLR). This study is important because it is the
first study on hematological parameters such as NLR, MLO, PLO and BLO.


Material
and Methods: In this study, hemogram and biochemical data of 17
patients who received carbamazepine (CBZ), 21 patients with valproic acid
(VPA), 22 patients with levetiracetam (LEV) along with 40 healthy controls
were gathered and compared. The differences between the groups were evaluated
statistically.


Results:
No difference was present between the groups in terms of age or gender (p>
0.05). NLR was 2.19±1.42 for patients using CBZ, 1.64±1.34 for VPA users,
2.18±0.73 for LEV users and 2.04±0.85 for control group (p> 0.05). NLR,
MLR, PLR and BLR were not significantly different from the control group. 

Conclusion: To our knowledge, no study has targeted the haematological effects of antiepileptics on NLR, MLR, PLR and BLR. This study was important because it is the first study the effect of various antiepileptics on the hematological parameters such as NLR, MLR, PLR, and BLR. We believe that our study will articulate new studies.
