Patients were divided into two groups according to their CAL: aKD patients without CAL (n = 134) and those with CAL (n = 81) . We compared the differences in age at diagnosis, sex, and laboratory and echocardiography data between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the risk factors for predicting CALs in patients with aKD. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to detect the sensitivity and specificity of the NLR, LDH, and the combination of the two values in patients with CAL with aKD.  \nResults PLT, ALB, LDH, CK, and CK-MB in aKD patients without CAL were significantly greater than those inpatients with CAL, whereas hs-CRP andTBIL were significantly lower than those in patients with CAL (P \u003C 0. 05) . Echocardiography data showed that LCAd, RCAd, LVDd, IVSd, and LVPWd were significantly greater in aKD patients with CAL than in those without CAL (P \u003C 0. 05) . After adjusting for age at diagnosis, sex, LDH, CK, IVSd, LVPWd, LVDd, and LVEF, NLH remained an independent risk indicator related to CAL (OR: 1. 210, 95% CI: 1.0221.432, P = 0 . 027) . ROC analysis revealed that LDH demonstrated excellent sensitivity (90 . 28%), whereas the NLR showed excellent specificity (91 . 79%) . The combined evaluation exhibited good sensitivity (52 . 78%), specificity (80 . 30%), and AUC (0 . 727, 95% CI: 0.660 to 0 . 787); these findings indicate that the combined assessment is superior to the single-index assessment using the NLR (P Combination vs. NLR = 0.007) .  \n*Correspondence: Yu Wan[drwanyu@163.com](drwanyu@163.com)  \nFull list of author information is available at the end of the article  \n© The Author(s) 2025.

When the NLR is > 4.06 and/or LDH is \u003C 370.4 U/L, aKD patients are more likely to develop CAL. The combination of NLR and LDH level has good predictive value for CAL in aKD patients.  \nClinical trial number Not applicable.  \nKeywords Acute Kawasaki disease, Coro","cbCaiteLtfXIhoMP","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiteLtfXIhoMP","pdf",1403655,"English","# Abstract\n## Objective\n## Methods\n## Results\n## Conclusion\n# Introduction","[{\"question\":\"What is the study’s main objective regarding NLR and LDH?\",\"answer\":\"To evaluate the predictive value of combining the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) for coronary artery lesions in acute Kawasaki disease patients.\"},{\"question\":\"How were patients grouped for analysis?\",\"answer\":\"A total of 215 acute Kawasaki disease patients were divided into two groups based on coronary artery lesions: without CAL (n=134) and with CAL (n=81).\"},{\"question\":\"Which markers were reported to be associated with coronary artery lesions?\",\"answer\":\"The study reports differences in several laboratory markers and echocardiography measures between groups, and concludes that NLH is an independent risk indicator for CAL.\"}]","Predictive value of the combined evaluation of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and lactate dehydrogenase level for coronary artery lesions in patients with acute Kawasaki disease | PDF",1790699857]
