| description | Abstract Objective To explore the application of neutrophils to lymphocytes ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and monocyte to lymphocyte ratio (MLR) in the differential diagnosis of benign uterine diseases and endometrial malignant tumors. Methods 80 patients with endometrial malignant tumor diagnosed in our hospital from January 2019 to December 2022 were selected as the study group, and 74 patients with benign uterine diseases confirmed by pathology in our hospital during the same period were randomly selected as the control group. The differences of NLR, PLR and MLR in the peripheral blood of patients in each group were compared, and the value of individual indicators in the diagnosis of endometrial malignant tumor was evaluated using the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve. Results In peripheral blood, the NLR, PLR and MLR value in patients with endometrial cancer (EC) were significantly higher than those in patients with benign uterine diseases (P < 0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) of NLR, PLR, MLR in peripheral blood were 0.777, 0. 675 and 0.698. The best cutoff values were 2.02, 132.06 and 0.166. The sensitivity and specificity were 62.5% and 79.7%, 62.5% and 63.5%, 81 3% and 47.3%. The combination of these three indicators can significantly improved the diagnostic efficiency in endometrial cancer (AUC = 0.780), and the sensitivity and specificity were 60% and 83.8%. Conclusions In peripheral blood, NLR, PLR and MLR have certain diagnostic value in the differential diagnosis of endometrial cancer. When NLR, PLR and MLR are elevated, we should be alert to the occurrence of endometrial malignant tumors, and the combined diagnostic efficiency is high. |
