| Core Tip |
We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the relationship between the peripheral blood neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and outcome of patients with pancreatic cancer. The results showed that high NLR was a poor prognostic marker and high NLR was associated with poor overall survival in patients with mixed treatment, chemotherapy, or surgical resection. Furthermore, high NLR was significantly correlated with tumor metastasis, poor tumor differentiation, poor performance status, high carbohydrate antigen 199, high C-reactive protein, and low albumin. This is the first comprehensive and detailed analysis for evaluating the prognostic value of the NLR and its association with the clinicopathological features for pancreatic cancer patients. NLR might be a novel marker of the survival evaluation for pancreatic cancer patients. |
