The prognostic role of preoperative circulating neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio in primary bladder cancer patients undergoing radical cystectomy: a meta-analysis
2018
Background
Systemic inflammatory response (SIR) plays important roles in initiation, promotion and progression of tumor. However, the prognostic role of preoperative circulating neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio (NLR) (known as a marker of SIR) in human primary bladder cancer (BC) undergoing radical cystectomy (RC) remains controversial. Hence, we performed this meta-analysis to better understand the role of preoperative circulating NLR in prognosis prediction for primary BC patients undergoing RC.
