Background: The eosinophil/neutrophil/platelet-to-lymphocyte ratios (ELR, NLR, and PLR) have been used as clinical markers of systemic inflammation. However, they have not yet been tested in various subtypes of immediate hypersensitivity to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Objectives: To assess the ELR, NLR, and PLR in various types o...

Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a heterogeneous disease group of unknown etiology with a complex immunological background. As CTCL arises from T cells that have a vital role in the antitumor response, their therapy is largely aimed at reversing the immunological mechanisms leading to or manifesting during this malignancy. Early disease stages c...
