Description
Qian Li and co-authors check in 2024 whether two blood measures warn of poor survival in children with a kidney tumor. Nephroblastoma is the most common belly cancer of childhood. High levels of a clotting protein, fibrinogen, and of platelets often travel with cancer and bad outcomes, but their link here was untested.
Records of 129 children were read. Both measures ran high in children with later-stage disease and certain tissue types, and high values tracked clearly with poorer survival. Each stayed a risk factor when other traits were held constant. A chart built from the data forecast survival well against real outcomes.
