Neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio reflects tumour‐infiltrating lymphocytes and tumour‐associated macrophages and independently predicts poor outcome in breast cancers with neoadjuvant chemotherapy

Aims The neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a systemic reflection of cancer‐associated inflammation and a prognostic marker for breast cancer. For the local tumour microenvironment, tumour‐infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and tumour‐associated macrophages (TAMs) are also highly correlated with brea...
