Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) combined with chemotherapy have improved overall survival in patients with small-cell lung cancer, but have also led to an increase in adverse effects.

However, it is associated with high mortality and disability rates.

Methods: This investigation involved 92 HD patients and 92 matched healthy controls (HCs). We quantified various peripheral inflammatory markers and calculated their derived metrics including neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII).
