The Glasgow Prognostic Score (GPS; calculated based on serum C-reactive protein (CRP) and albumin levels), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI; calculated based on albumin and lymphocyte counts), and the Prognostic Index (PI; calculated based on serum CRP and white blood cell counts) are inflammation-based prognostic scores which are useful prognostic biomarkers for many types of cancer [10]. Here, ALB is linked to cancer.
