Association Between Body Mass Index and Hematotoxicity in Gynecological Cancer Patients Receiving Paclitaxel-Carboplatin Therapy: A Retrospective Study
BMI was not associated with grade ≥ 3 hematotoxicity across all hematologic endpoints. Although serum creatinine correction to 0.7 mg/dL may reduce BMI-related variability in renal function estimation, this interpretation remains speculative because our study did not include a non-corrected comparison group.
