ALB and cancer: Various inflammation-based and nutritional markers, such as neutrophil (NEU), lymphocyte (LYM), platelet count (PLT), serum ferritin (SF) and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), as well as prognostic nutritional index hemoglobin (HGB), albumin (ALB), transferrin (TRF), albumin to globulin (AGR), and prealbumin (PA), have been identified as promising clinical prognostic predictors for various cancers due to their simplicity and cost-effectiveness (23–29).
