High prognostic nutritional index could be associated with improved survival in patients with brain metastases: a retrospective observational study

CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that PNI could be associated with survival in patients with brain metastases. Patients with a lower PNI had a significantly worse outcome in comparison with those with a higher PNI. Evaluation of PNI may provide additional prognostic information in patients with brain metastases.PMID:37700395 | DOI:10.1080/01616412.2023.2257438
