Inflammatory responses are indispensable for pathogen control and tissue repair, but they also cause collateral damage. A chronically activated immune system and the resultant immune dysregulation mediated inflammatory surge may cause multiple negative effects, requiring tight regulation and dampening of the immune response to minimize host injury.\u00a0 While chronic diseases are characterized by systemic inflammation, the mechanistic relationship of neutrophils and lymphocytes to inflammation and its correlation with the clinical outcomes is yet to be elucidated. The neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is an easy-to-measure laboratory marker used to assess systemic inflammation. Understanding the mechanisms of NLR perturbations in chronic diseases is crucial for risk stratification, early intervention, and finding novel therapeutic targets.\u00a0We investigated the correlation between NLR and prevalent chronic conditions as a measure of systemic inflammation. In addition to predicting the risk of impending chronic conditions, NLR may also provide insight into their progression. This review summarizes the mechanisms of NLR perturbations at cellular and molecular levels, and the key inflammatory signaling pathways involved in the progression of chronic diseases. We have also explored preclinical studies investigating these pathways and the effect of quelling inflammation in chronic disease as reported by a few\n                    <ns3:italic>in vitro<\/ns3:italic>\n                    ,\n                    <ns3:italic>in vivo<\/ns3:italic>\n                    studies, and clinical trials.\n                  <\/ns3:p>","DOI":"10.12688\/f1000research.123245.1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,19]],"date-time":"2022-08-19T05:30:07Z","timestamp":1660887007000},"page":"960","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.12688\/f1000research.crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":32,"title":["The mechanistic role of neutrophil lymphocyte ratio perturbations in the leading non communicable lifestyle diseases"],"prefix":"10.12688","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1186-3907","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Monalisa","family":"Biswas","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Renuka","family":"Suvarna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0100-2396","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vimal","family":"Krishnan S","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tom","family":"Devasia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3319-9661","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vijetha","family":"Shenoy Belle","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3479-9597","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Krishnananda","family":"Prabhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2560","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"23-28","DOI":"10.1016\/j.coi.2014.03.007","article-title":"Inflammation, ageing and chronic disease.","volume":"29","author":"G Pawelec","year":"2014","journal-title":"Curr.
