Abstract:

Objective

To investigate the value of platelet lymphocyte ratio(PLR),neutrophilic lymphocyte ratio(NLR)and albumin to globulin ratio(AGR)in evaluating the prognosis of breast cancer patients.

Methods

1184 female patients with invasive breast cancer admitted from January 2013 to December 2017 were selected as the invasive breast cancer group,279 patients with breast fibroadenoma were randomly selected as breast fibroadenoma group. General data,postoperative pathological data,blood type,preoperative peripheral blood platelets,neutrophils,lymphocytes,serum albumin and globulin levels were collected. PLR,NLR and AGR were calculated. The area under the receiver functional characteristic curve was used to evaluate the prognostic ability of the three groups. I SPSS 20.0 and MedCalc software were used for statistical analysis and plotting,and P<0.05 indicated statistically significant differences.

Results

The preoperative PLR and NLR of the invasive breast cancer patients were significantly higher than those of the breast fibroadenoma patients(P<0.05),while the AGR was lower than those in patients with breast fibroadenoma(P<0.05).Cox proportional regression risk analysis showed that age at PLR,NLR,AGR,tumor diameter,histological grade,number of positive lymph nodes and molecular type were all prognostic risk factors for breast cancer(P<0.05). ROC curve analysis shouwed that the optimal diagnostic thresholds for PLR,NLR and AGR were 147.4,2.9 and 1.7.Preoperative PLR(AUC=0.796,P<0.001),NLR(AUC=0.716,P<0.001)and AGR(AUC=0.748,P<0.001)were all valuable in predicting the prognosis of breast cancer patients,and the value of PLR is higher.

Conclusion

Preoperative PLR,NLR and AGR are all valuable for the prognosis of breast cancer patients. Compared with the three ratios,PLR has higher value and is expected to be a supplementary indicator for the prognosis of breast cancer patients.
