Associations between CBC-derived inflammatory biomarkers and gallstones were assessed using multivariable logistic regression models, with results presented as odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Restricted cubic splines (RCS) were employed to examine potential non-linear relationships. Subgroup analyses were also conducted to explore differences across population subgroups.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study comprised 4,977 participants, among whom 398 were diagnosed with gallstones. After adjusting for confounding variables, the highest quartile of systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) [OR (95%CI): 1.65(1.12,2.43)], systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) [OR (95%CI): 1.53(1.05,2.25)], monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR) [OR (95%CI): 1.66(1.16,2.37)], and pan immune inflammatory value (PIV) [OR (95%CI): 1.82(1.23,2.71)] were associated with a significantly increased risk of gallstones compared to the lowest quartiles. RCS plots indicated a nonlinear relationship between several inflammatory biomarkers and gallstones.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n
