We aimed to compare the maternal and neonatal systemic inflammatory markers, platelet indices and new indices in biochemical parameters in women with preeclampsia and healthy controls. The secondary aim was to investigate whether there was a relationship between maternal hematological markers and neonatal outcomes. A retrospective case control study was conducted in a tertiary hospital. Maternal demographic and birth characteristics, complete blood count indices, derived neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (dNLR), Delta neutrophil index (DNI), uric acid-to-creatinine (Cre) ratio and uric acid-to-alanine transaminase ratio, neonatal hematological parameters were compared between the preeclamptic group and control group. The study consisted of 170 cases (84 preeclampsia and 86 control). Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), dNLR, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Cre), uric acid, LDH, aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT), uric acid-to-Cre ratio and uric acid-to-ALT ratio were higher and statistically significant in the preeclamptic group than in control ones ( p : 0.000 – BUN, Cre, uric acid, LDH,  p : 0.001 – AST,  p : 0.004 – ALT,  p : 0.000 – uric acid-to-Cre ratio,  p : 0.009 – uric acid-to-ALT ratio, respectively). NLR and platelet-to-lymphocyte (PLR) ratio were significantly higher in newborns of preeclamptic mothers ( p : 0.039;  p : 0.004, respectively). A low-moderate correlation between maternal uric acid-to-Cre ratio and neonatal PLR was detected (r: 0.193;  p : 0.013). Moreover, moderate negative correlations between maternal PLR (r:−0.231,  p : 0.002), uric acid (r: 0.332, p:0.000) and adverse neonatal outcomes were found. Uric acid and PLR, which can be easily calculated clinically may predict adverse neonatal outcomes.IMPACT STATEMENTWhat is already known about this topic?  Preeclampsia is known as a significant cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. Haematological indices have been evaluated for the prognosis of many kinds of disease.What do the results of this study add ? This study has focussed on new combined haematological–biochemical indices and its relationship with neonatal outcomes. Both higher NLR, derived NLR, DNI and lower PLR were recorded as useful markers for preeclampsia.What are the implications of these findings for clinical practice and/or further research?  Some indices that were calculated by assessing basic and simple blood parameters may help clinicians to predict clinical outcomes of preeclampsia. What is already known about this topic?
