Background We aimed to validate the lymph node ratio (LNR) as an independent prognostic
factor in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and compare its utility with the current nodal …

Objectives To evaluate the prognostic role of the lymph node ratio (LNR; ratio of total
positive nodes to total dissected nodes) in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) as …

Objectives Recently, multiple studies addressed the importance of lymph node ratio (LNR) in
specifying patients' risk of disease recurrence in various malignancies. The present study …

Objective This study aimed to evaluate the utility of lymph node ratio (LNR) as a potential
prognostic predictor in selected patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Study …

Background: Lymph node density (LND) has previously been reported to reliably predict
recurrence risk and survival in oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). This …

Importance Oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC) is associated with often-delayed
clinical diagnosis, poor prognosis, and expensive therapeutic approaches. Prognostic …

BACKGROUND: The impact of lymph node metastases on prognosis in patients with oral
cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) has been well recognized. However, accurate …

Background The prognostic significance of various histopathologic lymph node‐based
biomarkers in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) needs further evaluation. Methods …

Background Lymph node density (LND) has been described as a prognostic factor for
survival in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, particularly of the oral …

Background Lymph node density (LND) is superior to TNM nodal status in predicting
survival after surgery for bladder and other cancers. Little is known, however, about whether …
