CD4 levels and NSCLC metastasis: the benefits of maintaining moderate levels

CONCLUSIONS: A threshold effect is shown to exist between the peripheral blood CD4 and distant metastasis in NSCLC patients. It was revealed that the risk of distant metastasis is lower when CD4 is maintained between 32 and 44%, whereas low (< 32%) or high (> 44) levels of CD4 are associated with an increased risk of distant metastasis in NSCLC patients.PMID:37733240 | DOI:10.1007/s00432-023-05418-2
