“…These include old age [ 14 ], comorbidity [ 14 , 15 ], poor performance status [ 13 , 14 ], low body mass index (BMI) and body weight (BW) [ 13 , 14 , 16 ], anemia [ 14 , 15 ], low total lymphocyte count [ 13 ], low prognostic nutritional index (PNI) [ 17 ], high levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) [ 18 , 19 , 20 ], and total muscle and fat mass [ 19 , 21 ]. In particular, the Glasgow prognostic score (GPS), an inflammation-based model that combines the levels of serum albumin and CRP, has demonstrated significance for predicting outcomes in patients with HNC under different clinical circumstances [ 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ]. Patients with HNC or oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma who expressed a low pretreatment modified Glasgow prognostic score (mGPS) showed better survival outcomes than those who expressed a high mGPS [ 23 , 25 ].…”
