Abstract:Objective To investigate the value of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) to evaluating the prognosis of patients with
stage III pancreatic cancer treated by radiotherapy. Methods A total of 41 patients with stage III pancreatic cancer were detected NLR
before radiotherapy. ROC curve was used to cut off the NLR with the highest sensitivity and specificity. The patients were divided
into high NLR group(NLR≥2.86)and low NLR group (NLR<2.86). The survival time was recorded and compared by Log-rank
method between two groups. Results The median survival time was 9 months in high NLR group and 21 months in low NLR group,
showing a significant difference by Log-rank method (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the median survival time in
the age, gender, Karnofsky score, tumor location, carbohydrate antigen 19-9 level, surgical treatment before radiotherapy, regional
lymph node metastasis and synchronous chemotherapy (P>0.05). Conclusion NLR is closely related to the prognosis of pancreatic
cancer patients. High NLR is an indicator of poor prognosis for pancreatic cancer.
