Fig. 2From: A novel and accurate predictor of survival for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma after surgical resection: the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) combined with the aspartate aminotransferase/platelet count ratio index (APRI)Relationship between NLR and DFS/OS of HCC patients after hepatectomy. a DFS of patients with NLR > 2 was significantly shorter than those with NLR ≤ 2 (P < 0.001, log-rank test). b OS of patients with NLR > 2 was also markedly shorter than those with NLR ≤ 2 (P < 0.001, log-rank test)Back to article page
