Abstract

ObjectivesTo evaluate the ability for pre-treatment NLR and MLR to predict overall survival (OS) and modified Rankin Scale (mRS) and to explore their relationship with clinicopathological parameters. MethodsRetrospective analysis of pretreatment NLR and MLR from 64 glioma patients. ResultsHigher pretreatment NLR (>4.7) predicted higher mean admission mRS (p < 0.001) and 6-month mRS (p = 0.02). Higher pretreatment MLR (>0.35) was a risk factor for poorer OS in glioma patients (p = 0.024). Higher pretreatment NLR was significantly associated with larger tumor diameter (p = 0.02). ConclusionNLR and MLR can serve as prognostic markers to predict functional outcomes and OS in glioma patients
