Özet

Background: The immune system responds to many diseases by triggering an inflammatory response, which in turn produces changes in the formulation of blood elements in the circulation. Certain parameters derived from the complete blood count, mainly the neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), have been used as biomarkers in the diagnosis and prognosis of solid tumors.
