| Core Tip |
This retrospective study revealed that over half of malignant melanoma patients experienced depressive symptoms, which were closely associated with suppressed cellular immunity and elevated inflammatory markers such as interleukin-6 (IL-6) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio. CD4+ T cell count and serum albumin were found to be protective factors, while IL-6 and advanced tumor-node-metastasis stage were risk predictors. A multi-indicator model combining IL-6, CD4+, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio achieved good predictive performance (area under the curve = 0.834). These findings highlight the need for integrated psychosocial and immunological assessment in melanoma patients to improve mental health and potentially affect prognosis. |
