Neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, C-reactive protein, D-dimer, ferritin, troponin, and B-type natriuretic peptide were found to be significantly higher in patients with systolic dysfunction. Also, the cut-off value of 1700 pg/ml for B-type natriuretic peptide was significantly effective. These parameters may indicate the severity of the disease but should be supported by prospective studies.
