The Cox proportional hazards model for multivariate analyses revealed that patients with a CRP/Alb ratio >0.03 had worse OS than patients with a CRP/Alb ratio ≤0.03 (Hazard ratio (HR) = 2.093; 95% Confidence interval (CI): 1.222–3.587; p = 0.007), and PLR > 146.2 had worse OS than patients with a PLR ≤ 146.2 (HR: 2.003; 95% CI: 1.177–3.410; p = 0.010), whereas GPS, mGPS, and NLR were not independent prognostic factors for OS in NPC (Table 2). The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
