Background: Despite evidence supporting the high correlation of the novel platelet-to-albumin ratio (PAR) with survival in diverse malignancies, its prognostic relevance in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) remains underexplored. This study aimed to examine the link between PAR and overall survival (OS) in NPC and to establish a predictive model based on this biomarker.
Methods: We retrospectively assembled a cohort consisting of 858 NPC patients who underwent concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT).
Article Synopsis
- Recent research shows that a new test called the lymphocyte-C-reactive protein ratio (LCR) might help predict how well people with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (a type of cancer) will do over time.
- The study looked at 841 patients who had treatment and created a special chart (nomogram) to help predict survival chances based on different factors like age and LCR score.
- The results suggest that the LCR test can more accurately predict survival than traditional methods, but more testing is needed to confirm this.
