Background The immune system plays an important role in cancer pathogenesis. A low
lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), as a simple biomarker of host immune system, has …

Inflammation influences cancer development and progression, and a low lymphocyte to
monocyte ratio (LMR) has been reported to be a poor prognostic indicator in several …

Purpose To review the currently available literature reporting the patterns of recurrence and
their predictive factors after open radical cystectomy (RC) for bladder cancer. Methods A …

The outcome of bladder cancer after radical cystectomy is heterogeneous. We aim to
evaluate the prognostic value of HALP (hemoglobin, albumin, lymphocyte and platelet) and …

Although pretreatment neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lymphocyte–monocyte ratio
(LMR), and platelet–lymphocyte ratio (PLR) are reportedly associated with clinical outcomes …

AIM: To evaluate the prognostic significance of the lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) in
patients with unresectable metastatic colorectal cancer who received palliative …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the evidence regarding the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte
ratio (NLR) as a factor predictive of survival in bladder cancer patients. A search of PubMed …

Introduction: The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been found to be an indicator of
poor prognosis in many tumour types. However, little is known about the relationship …

Background To explore the prognostic significance of preoperative prognostic nutritional
index (PNI) in bladder cancer after radical cystectomy and compare the prognostic ability of …

Abstracts Objectives Chronic inflammation plays a key role in the pathogenesis of malignant
pleural mesothelioma (MPM) as a result of asbestos exposure. Several inflammation-based …
