Efficacy of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio for cancer prognosis in elderly patients with colon cancer: A single center propensity score-matched analysis

2022-05-09

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> The prognostic value of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been studied for several cancers, including colon cancer. Elderly patients in general tend to have comorbidities, poor performance status, and decreased organ function that potentially influence the NLR score. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between NLR and cancer prognosis in elderly patients with colo...
