Contribution of neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio to the diagnostic efficiency of computed tomography and polymerase chain reaction in COVID-19 patients.

Many studies are undoubtedly required to determine the efficiency of the neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio in COVID-19 diagnosis. However, we postulate that evaluating the neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio along with computed tomography and polymerase chain reaction can assist in the diagnosis of patients.
