Changes in inflammatory biomarkers related to C-reactive protein and albumin in patients with terminal cancer receiving palliative care: a longitudinal study.

Changes in inflammatory biomarkers related to C-reactive protein and albumin in patients with terminal cancer receiving palliative care: a longitudinal study.

Background: Evidence about how inflammatory biomarkers vary during the end-stage cancer trajectory is lacking.
