Is blood preoperative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio correlated with TNM stage in patients with papillary thyroid cancer?
The preoperative Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio was closely related to the stage of papillary thyroid carcinoma. The increase in the preoperative Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio contributed to the advanced tumor-node-metastasis stage of papillary thyroid carcinoma patients ≥45 years of age.
The initial changes in Gc-globulin can be explained by increased release of actin from injured muscle tissue. Subsequently Gc-globulin displays characteristics of a so-called positive acute phase reactant, supporting previous in vitro studies, and clinical studies after minor surgery. In spite of genetic linkage and structural homology Gc-globulin and albumin are regulated differently after surgical trauma.
