Zhang for their useful comments about our article.
First, we did not conclude that the neutrophil-tolymphocyte
ratio (NLR) is a suggestive clinical
marker for diagnosing certain solid malignancies.
The NLR has been reported as a useful systematic
inflammatory response marker in malignancies.1,2 In
addition, previous investigations have shown that
NLR is a useful marker for predicting the prognosis
of various malignant diseases, and a higher NLR has
been associated with a poorer prognosis.3 Our study
concluded that NLR is also influenced by cancer
progression in renal transplant patients.4 Second, as
Dr. Yao and colleagues mentioned, renal transplant
patients in our study received a number of different
drugs for controlling organ resection. We therefore
showed for the first time the changes over time in
NLR in nonmalignant patients receiving steroids and
other immunosuppressive drugs postoperatively. We
then compared the NLR between the nonmalignant
and malignant groups. |
