Zusammenfassung:Abstract BACKGROUND Glioblastoma is known for its dismal prognosis though its dependency on patients’ readily available RBCs parameters defining the patient’s anemic status such as hemoglobin level and Red blood cells distribution Width (RDW) is not fully established. Several works demonstrated a connection between low hemoglobin level or high RDW values to overall glioblastoma patient’s survival, but in other works, a clear connection was not found. This study addresses this unclarity. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this work, 170 glioblastoma patients, diagnosed and treated in Soroka University Medical Center (SUMC) in the last 12 years were retrospectively inspected for their survival dependency on pre-operative RBCs parameters using multivariate analysis followed by false discovery rate procedure due to the multiple hypothesis testing. A survival stratification tree and Kaplan-Meier survival curves that indicate the patient’s prognosis according to these parameters were prepared. RESULTS Beside KPS>70 and tumor resection supplemented by oncological treatment, age
