Comparison of the severity of coronary artery disease in different tertiles of PLR.

	1-vessel		2-vessel		3-vessel
PLR	OR (95% CI)	P-value	OR (95% CI)	P-value	OR (95% CI)	P-value
PLR<101	1.000		1.000		1.000
PLR 101–171	l.437 (0.884–2.335)	0.136	1.850 (1.147–2.984)	0.012	1.998 (1.199–3.329)	0.008
PLR>171	1.773 (1. 090–2.882)	0.021	1.975 (1.188–3.285)	0.009	2.393 (1.394–4.108)	0.002

Significant differences (P<0.05) are indicated in bold. PLR, platelet to lymphocyte ratio; CI, confidence intervals; OR, odds ratio; vessel, number of major epicardial coronary vessels with angiographic evidence of one or more stenoses.
