The Impact of Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte and Platelet-to-Lymphocyte Ratios in Epithelial Ovarian Cancer by Samet Kirat, Utku Akgor

“…It was determined that neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio >2.45 (HR 0.714, CI 0.622-0.794, p<0.0001) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio >179.4 (HR 0.736, CI 0.646-0.814, p<0.0001) could predict the presence of recurrence with a certain sensitivity and specificity, and for predicting the death, a neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio of >2.45 had a sensitivity of 78.26% (95% CI: 56.3 to 92.5%) and a specificity of 54.84% (95%CI: 44.2 - 65.2) (p=0.03). …”
