Table 1. Baseline patients’ characteristics.

Baseline patients’ characteristics of our population including gender, ALC, AMC, LMR before initiating treatment, R-IPI score, number of R-CHOP cycles received by each patient, and response to R-CHOP (outcome).

ALC: absolute lymphocyte count; AMC: absolute monocyte count; LMR: lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio; R-IPI: revised International Prognostic Index; R-CHOP: rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone; V.good: very good.
