To determine if the increase in the neutrophil-lymphocyte index is a predictor of renal function deterioration in patients with chronic kidney disease. Methodology: We analyzed a retrospective cohort of 316 patients with CKD subdivided into two groups: those with NLI (neutrophils/lymphocytes index) ≥ 2,09 (elevated) and those with NLI < 2,09 (not elevated). In each group, we determined whether or not they had impaired renal function defined as an annual decrease in glomerular filtration rate > 1 ml/min/ 1,73 m2 and related them to other covariates. Bivariate and multivariate analysis was performed by calculating the relative risk with 95% confidence intervals, considering the association significant if the p-value was <0,05. Results: 123 (79,7%) of patients with elevated NLI and 34 (21,5%) patients with non-elevated NLI presented deterioration of renal function (p<0,001). The RRa of renal function deterioration in patients with elevated NLI was 3,23 (95% CI: 2,32-4,49). The covariates related to renal function deterioration were stage IV CKD (RRa=1,31, 95% CI: 1,02-1,69, p=0,037) , anaemia (RRa= 1,39, 95% CI: 1,15-169, p=0,001) ,history of cardiovascular disease (RRa: 1.31, 95% CI: 1,06-1,69, p=0.017) and albuminuria ( RRa= 1,78 , 95% CI: 1,22-2,08 , p=0,021). Conclusions: Increased neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio is a predictor of renal function deterioration in patients with chronic kidney disease
