Özet

Objective: The inflammatory and vascular disorders have been proposed in the pathogenesis of Bell's palsy (BP). Several studies investigated the role of inflammation and ischemic in BP using white blood cell (WBC) count and its subtypes. Here, we aimed to investigate lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), mean platelet volume (MPV), and platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in BP. Methods: The study was conducted on 76 patients with BP and 60 healthy controls. The comparison of LDH, NLR, MPV, and PLR was made between groups. The relationships between LDH, NLR, MPV, and PLR were also investigated. Results: The mean LDH concentrations and NLR were significantly high in BP group than in control group (p < 0.01, p < 0.05, respectively). There was no significant difference between groups in MPV and PLR (p = 0.195, p = 0.263, respectively). Conclusion: Our results support the diagnostic value of high LDH concentrations in BP patients. Further studies are needed to investigate the relationship between LDH and the severity and prognosis of BP.
