Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in H. pylori-associated gastritis

Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio calculated from complete blood count in patients with confirmed H. pylori-associated gastritis compared with patients without H. pylori infection.

Time frame
Baseline

Secondary outcomes

1

Platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR)

Platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio calculated from complete blood count in patients with and without H. pylori infection.

Time frame
Baseline
2

Diagnostic performance of NLR

Sensitivity, specificity, and optimal cutoff value of NLR for predicting H. pylori infection using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.

Time frame
Baseline
3

Diagnostic performance of PLR

Sensitivity, specificity, and optimal cutoff value of PLR for predicting H. pylori infection using ROC curve analysis.

Time frame
Baseline
4

Correlation of NLR and PLR with severity of gastritis

Correlation coefficient between neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) values and the severity grade of gastritis based on endoscopic and/or histopathological findings, using Spearman or Pearson correlation as appropriate.
