As markers of inflammation, the monocyte to high-density lipoprotein ratio (MHR), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and red cell distribution width to platelet ratio (RPR) have been proven to be associated with a large variety of diseases. The aim of this study was to explore the association between inflammatory markers (MHR, NLR, and RPR) and MSA, and the difference between MSA and Parkinson\u2019s disease (PD) was further compared by these inflammatory markers.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Materials and methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study was divided into three groups: 47 patients with MSA, 125 patients with PD, and 124 healthy controls.

Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that MHR*10 (corrected OR = 1.312, 95% CI 1.093\u20131.575) and RPR*100 (corrected OR = 1.262, 95% CI 1.055\u20131.509) were positively correlated with the risk of MSA. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve indicated that the areas under the curve (AUCs) of the MHR, NLR, and RPR for predicting MSA were 0.651 (95% CI 0.562\u20130.74;\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &amp;lt; 0.05), 0.6 (95% CI 0.501\u20130.699;\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &amp;lt; 0.05), and 0.612 (95% CI 0.516\u20130.708;\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &amp;lt; 0.05), respectively. The AUC of MSA and PD predicted by the MHR was 0.727 (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &amp;lt; 0.001).
