Preoperative neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio can improve disease progression prediction of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer
Abstract:The purpose of this study was prospectively evaluate the ability of Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte ratio (NLR) to predict disease progression in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). This is a continuation of our previous retrospective study that indicated the significance of NLR > 2.5 criterion as a predictor of progression in patients with NMIBC. Since December 2013, all patients admitted to Bnai-Zion department for TUR-BT and agreed to participate in the study, had blood analyses for cell coun… Show more
