Elevated pre-treatment Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte-platelet ratios are associated with a high risk of in-hospital death among patients with prostate cancer in Nigeria

2023-08-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction</h4> In the last decade, there is an increasing mortality rate among patients diagnosed with prostate cancer (PCa) in West Africa. To identify the causes of the high mortality rate, this study analyzed the occurrence of high-grade tumours and the presence of BRCA2 mutation. It also assessed the systemic inflammatory indices as prognostic tools in low-resource settings. <h4>Methods</h4> This study...
