Article Synopsis
  • - The study explores the role of platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) as a potential serum biomarker for assessing prognosis in rectal cancer patients, highlighting its link to tumor inflammation and growth.
  • - A literature review analyzed 23 studies with 7,577 patients, finding a significant correlation between high PLR and worse overall survival (OS), but no strong link to disease-free survival (DFS).
  • - The results suggest that PLR can be a useful clinical predictor for OS in rectal cancer patients post-surgery, aiding in personalized treatment planning, while its effectiveness for DFS remains uncertain.
