Prognostic nutritional index (PNI) is a promising indicator for predicting inflammatory, immunological and nutritional states; however, its prognostic value in overweight and obese patients with cancer has not been explored. Therefore, the aim of the current study was to explore the prognostic value of PNI levels in overweight and obese patients with cancer.Methods: The current large-scale retrospective cohort multicenter study included 3532 patients. Time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was u [...]
