Prognostic significance of neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio in multiple myeloma patients

Background: null Increased neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been proposed to predict poor prognosis in many cancer types. However, the prognostic value of NLR in multiple myeloma (MM) remains largely unknown. This study aimed to investigate whether NLR is an independent predictor of MM. null Methods: null Data were collected retrospectively from 136 patients who were diagnosed with MM and subjected to bortezomib-thalidomide-dexamethasone...
