Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Objective: Acne vulgaris, an inflammatory disease, was investigated in this study with the claim that C-reactive protein (CRP) / albumin ratio and some hematological parameter ratios have the potential to be used as inflammatory markers to monitor disease severity and prognosis.

Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted with two groups of patients aged 18-65 years, 61 patients diagnosed with acne vulgaris and 35 healthy control patients, and routine hemogram and biochemical parameters were compared. The Global Acne Severity Index was used to determine the severity of acne vulgaris.
