Spatial organization of neutrophil and macrophage populations in surgically treated hepatocellular carcinoma: a practical tissue-based immunophenotyping study

7 de October de 2026 by Konstantinos Arvanitakis

Background and aimsHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has a spatially heterogeneous immune microenvironment, but the compartment-specific distribution of tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs) and its relationship with systemic inflammation remain incompletel…

Prognostic significance of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratios in hepatocellular carcinoma: a retrospective multicenter study on overall and recurrence-free survival following liver resection or liver transplantation

28 de April de 2026 by Konstantinos Arvanitakis

BackgroundSystemic inflammation plays a critical role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression and postoperative outcomes. This study assessed the prognostic value of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) …
