BACKGROUND: The aim was to explore the value of neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) as a biomarker for predicting the prognosis or diagnosis in adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC).
METHODS: We identified 262 patients with adrenal gland disease who underwent operation at our institution between 2013 and 2018. According to postoperative pathology, patients were divided into 2 groups: ACC and non-ACC groups. The neutrophil and lymphocyte count of patients were recorded. Within the intergroup comparison, data obtained from ACC and non-ACC groups were evaluated using ANOVA test. The cut-off values of NLR for the prognosis in ACC were determined according to 3 methods.
RESULTS: The NLR values of ACC and non-ACC groups were 5.36 ± 5.30 and (1.73 ± 0.26) ∼ (2.56 ± 1.35), respectively (P < .001). NLR carry a differential property was evaluated with ROC curve to distinguish the above 2 groups. The cut-off value of NLR was estimated as 2.65 according to the Youden index. With this value, sensitivity was found as 67.5%, specificity was 83.8% and AUC was 0.749 (P < .001, confidence interval = 0.638-0.860). In ACC, the higher NLR group was not shown significantly poorer overall survival than the lower NLR group (NLR ≥2.65 vs. NLR < 2.65, NLR ≥5 vs. NLR <5, NLR ≥5.36 vs. NLR <5.36) (P > .05).
CONCLUSION: According to the data in this study, it can be said that adrenocortical tumors are likely to be malignant by 67.5% if the NLR value is greater than 2.65. When we use the NLR to predict the prognosis of ACC, there is not statistically significant.
