Predictive value of pretreatment peripheral blood N/CD4 and N/CD8 ratios for the efficacy of radiotherapy for esophageal cancer
N/CD4 and N/CD8 have emerged as viable prognostic predictors for patients undergoing radiotherapy for EC, offering valuable insights for clinicians to strategize further treatment options. However, the retrospective nature of this study introduces potential bias in assessment, underscoring the necessity for large-scale, prospective, randomized controlled trials to substantiate and validate these findings.
