Prognostic Value of Lymph Node Ratio in comparison to Lymph Node Metastases in Stage III Colon Cancer
Background & Objectives: Colon cancer is currently of high incidence and mortality rate. Identifying the factors influencing its prognosis can be very beneficial to its clinical treatment. Recent studies have shown that lymph nodes ratio can be considered as an important prognostic factor. The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of this factor on the prognosis of the ...
متن کاملPrognostic role of the lymph node ratio in node positive colorectal cancer: a meta-analysis
The lymph node ratio (LNR) (i.e. the number of metastatic lymph nodes divided by the number of totally resected lymph nodes) has recently emerged as an important prognostic factor in colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the tumor node metastasis (TNM) staging system for colorectal cancer does not consider it as a prognostic parameter. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the prognos...

متن کاملThe Prognostic Significance of the Lymph Node Ratio in Axillary Lymph Node Positive Breast Cancer
PURPOSE This study evaluated the prognostic impact of the lymph node ratio (LNR; i.e., the ratio of positive to dissected lymph nodes) on recurrence and survival in breast cancer patients with positive axillary lymph nodes (LNs). METHODS The study cohort was comprised of 330 breast cancer patients with positive axillary nodes who received postoperative radiotherapy between 1987 and 2004. Ten-...
متن کاملComparison of positive lymph node ratio with an inflammation-based prognostic score in colorectal cancer.
BACKGROUND Two prognostic scoring systems have been proposed in colorectal cancer: the pathologically based positive lymph node ratio (pLNR) and the inflammation-based modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS). This study compared these two scores with the tumour node metastasis (TNM) staging system in terms of cancer survival. METHODS Between 2003 and 2005, 206 patients, of mean(s.d.) age 69·...
