Background
Inflammation and immune surveillance evasion are cancer hallmarks. Peripheral blood leukocytes (PBLs) represent both. The aim of the current study was to examine PBLs as predictors of outcomes in oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), and to find specific cutoffs with the goal of including PBLs as host factor in patients' preoperative risk assessment.
Methods
Previously established...
Background
Inflammation and immune evasion are associated with carcinogenesis. Systemic Inflammation Response Index (SIRI) has been proposed as a pretreatment peripheral blood biomarker. The aim of this study is to analyze its prognostic capacity in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC).
Methods
We performed a retrospective study in 824 patients with HNSCC. SIRI was calculated by neutrophils*monocytes/lymphocytes...
