Abstract:Inflammation Index (SII) (p ¼ 0.036) as well as decreased levels of MCV (p ¼ 0.025) and total protein (p ¼ 0.049) were significantly associated with reduced overall survival (OS). Furthermore, the higher the Glasgow Prognostic Score (GPS) (p <0.001) or the Lung Prognostic Index (PI-lung) (p <0.001) were the worse was the OS. Failure of first line treatment was significantly predicted by low albumin (p¼0.006), lymphocytes (p ¼ 0.032) and PNI (p ¼ 0.001) levels, whereas low values of CRP (p <0.001), LDH (p ¼ 0.0… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
