Prognostic significance of platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio in patients with ovarian cancer: A meta-analysis.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Optimizing the approach to older adults with cancer is now a priority given the increasing frequency of new cancer diagnoses that are made in the older population. The comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) represents the gold-standard for (1) defining prognosis and ability to withstand cancer treatments...
