Univariate logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the association ofeach variable with PDPH occurrence. NLR – neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio; PLR – platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio; MLR – monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio; SIRI – systemicinflammation response index; BMI – body mass index; OR – odds ratio; CI – confidence interval.
