| Abstract | To assess the prognostic value of the lymph node ratio (LNR) in patients with stage IIIC epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) with node-positive in a Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) population-based study. Data of patients were obtained from the SEER database from 1990 to 2012, and analyzed using Kaplan-Meier survival methods and Cox regression proportional hazard model. The prognostic value of the LNR on cause-specific survival (CSS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated. A total of 5,926 patients were identified. Univariate analysis showed that the number of removed lymph nodes (RLNs), the number of positive lymph nodes, and the LNR were significantly associated with CSS and OS (P < 0.05 for all). Multivariate analysis indicated that a higher LNR was an independent prognostic factor for poorer CSS (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.896, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.709-2.104, P < 0.001) and OS (HR:1.679, 95% CI: 1.454-1.939, P < 0.001). Among patients with LNR ≤ 0.42 and those with LNR > 0.42, the 5-year CSS was 53.1% and 34.7%, respectively (P < 0.001), and the 5-year OS was 50.4% and 32.0%, respectively (P < 0.001). The prognostic value of the LNR persisted for patients after stratification by the numbers of RLNs, tumor histology, and tumor grade. LNR is a more accurate prognostic method for stage IIIC EOC patients. Patients with a higher LNR are associated with poorer survival in stage IIIC EOC. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
