Purpose: Identifying prognostic indicators for risk stratification in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) is crucial for optimizing treatment strategies and follow-up plans. This study aims to investigate the prognostic role of the glucose-to-lymphocyte ratio (GLR) in patients with mRCC receiving tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) as first-line therapy.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted using data from the Turkish Oncology Group Kidney Cancer Consortium Database.
To evaluate the relationship between liver metastasis volume and survival in colorectal cancer patients using the volumetric measurement method. 114 colorectal cancer patients with isolated liver metastases were included in the study. Liver tumor volume, total liver volume were calculated from the patients images at the time of diagnosis.

- - Gallbladder and biliary tract tumors are rare but often deadly, and while systemic chemotherapy is recommended for patients with stages that cannot be surgically removed, standard treatment options are still lacking due to limited studies in this area.
- - The study aims to assess the prognostic effectiveness of the prognostic nutritional index (PNI), which combines albumin and lymphocyte levels to reflect a cancer patient's health status, in patients with unresectable/metastatic gallbladder and biliary tract cancers.
- - Results showed that a PNI score below 44 was linked to shorter overall survival, particularly in patients receiving chemotherapy, with a median survival of 8.93 months for those with low PNI compared to 12.58
