Lymph node ratio (LNR) has been shown to be an independent prognostic factor for oral
squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) in various centre-based studies recently. A range of cut …

Background Lymph node ratio (LNR) is increasingly reported as a potential prognostic tool.
The purpose of this review was to analyze the available literature on the prognostic …

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

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

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

Background Lymph node status is one prognostic factor in head and neck cancer. The
purpose of this study is to investigate the prognostic value of lymph node ratio (LNR) in head …

Pathological lymph node metastases (pN+) are an established prognostic factor in oral
cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). We retrospectively examined the prognostic …

Objectives The 8th edition of the AJCC has introduced a new nodal staging system for head
and neck cancers. Alternate nodal staging systems exist, however they have not been …

Importance Lymph node metastases are common in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), yet the
impact of nodal metastases on survival remains unclear. Lymph node density (LND) is the …

Background The prognostic significance of lymph node density in oral squamous cell
carcinoma (OSCC) has been well recognized. However, its use in a specific subsite of the …
