Abstract
Based on χ2, Spearman's rho test and multiple linear regression, NEU is related with intimal thickness (P < 0.05). Furthermore, NEU can predict the intimal thickness through the ROC curve. What's more, N/L is a risk factor of carotid media thickness (P < 0.05) by the Spearman's rho test, and is also correlated with poor NDT (P < 0.05) based on univariate Cox proportional regression analysis. Through ROC curve, N/L can predict the carotid media thickness. The carotid atherosclerotic endarterium is richest in macrophagocytes, and the arrangement of endotheliocytes is disordered. In summary, the increased NEU and N/L respectively have a strong correlation and precise predictability for carotid intimal and media thickness of atherosclerosis.
