Diagnostic Accuracy of Neutrophil Side Scatter Width (NE-WY) for Bloodstream Infection in Critically Ill Patients: A Prospective Observational Study
2026-07-03
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Bloodstream infection (BSI) complicates 20–50% of ICU sepsis cases and independently increases mortality. Conventional biomarkers — procalcitonin and C-reactive protein — lose discriminative power amid the high background inflammation of critical illness.
