Table 8. Comparison of ROC curve analysis of prime parameters to determine the prognostic importance in predicting the survival outcome.

ROC: receiver operating characteristic, AUC: area under the curve, NLR: neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, PLR: platelet/lymphocyte ratio, SII: systemic inflammatory index, ANC: absolute neutrophil count, ALC: absolute lymphocyte count, NB: null block (parameters already compared)
