    Tumor immune microenvironment in cancer patients with leukocytosis

    Tumor-related leukocytosis (TRL) is correlated with poor survival in various types of cancers, but the microenvironment of TRL-associated human tumors has not been fully elucidated. Here, we aimed to characterize the immune microenvironment of …

    Preoperative leukocytosis and the resection severity index are independent risk factors for survival in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma

    Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a malignant disease of the intrahepatic bile ducts. Although only accounting for 10 to 20% of primary hepatic malignancies, incidence and mortality rates are continuously increasing world-wide [ 1 ]. Recent …

    Dexamethasone-induced leukocytosis is associated with poor survival in newly diagnosed glioblastoma

    Despite its well-characterized side effects, dexamethasone is widely used in the pre-, peri- and postoperative neurosurgical setting due to its effective relief of tumor-induced symptoms through the reduction of tumor-associated edema. However …

    Admission Leukocytosis in Intracerebral Hemorrhage: Associated Factors and Prognostic Implications

    In critically ill patients, leukocytosis is generally regarded as a marker for infection; the same is true with fever. However, whereas in brain-injured patients, non-infectious or “central” fever is a familiar phenomenon, leukocytosis unrelated …
