Overview

Case-control study evaluates inflammatory biomarkers in breast cancer patients, suggesting lymphocyte levels may aid detection.

Key Points

  • Lymphocyte levels were significantly higher in breast cancer patients compared to healthy controls (p = 0.041).
  • Hemoglobin levels were significantly lower in breast cancer patients (p = 0.001), indicating potential alterations in hematological parameters.
  • Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio showed no significant differences, questioning their utility as biomarkers.
  • Findings suggest lymphocyte levels could be considered, but further research is needed to validate these as standalone markers.
