PURPOSE: This study was designed to assess the prognostic value of the lymph node ratio
in patients with colon cancer treated by colorectal specialists. METHODS: Three hundred …

Background: The presence and number of nodal metastasis significantly impact colon
cancer prognosis. Similarly, the number of resected/evaluated nodes impacts staging …

Objective: We analyzed 3 previously identified cut-off values of lymph node ratios (0.17,
0.41, and 0.69) in a large population-based collective of patients with colorectal cancer for …

Abstract Background and Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic
usefulness of the lymph node ratio (LNR) in stage III colon cancer using the 7th edition of the …

Aim Recent reports show that a positive metastatic to examined lymph nodes ratio (LNR)
has prognostic value in malignancies. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of …

Background Recent literature has shown that lymph node ratio (LNR) is superior to the
number of positive lymph nodes (pLNs) in predicting the prognosis in several malignances …

AIM: The aim of this study was to evaluate and describe the lymph node ratio (LNR) as a
prognostic parameter for patients with colon cancer. As lymphatic involvement is the key …

Lymph node ratio (LNR)(positive lymph nodes/sampled lymph nodes) is predictive of
survival in colon cancer. The aim of the present study was to validate the LNR as a …

Aim This study involved a large nationwide D anish cohort to evaluate the hypothesis that a
high lymph node harvest has a positive effect on survival in curative resected Stage I–III …

Background The lymph node ratio (LNR) was proposed as a prognostic indicator in Stage III
colorectal cancer (CRC) patients in recent studies. The purpose of this study was to evaluate …
