Description

Jing Sun, Zhenzhen Li, and Xiaming Zhu pool studies on a nutrition score and outlook in bladder cancer, in work from 2024. The score joins a blood protein level with a white cell count. Single studies on its worth for forecasting survival had clashed.

The team searched three data stores through April 2024 and kept twelve studies with 2,951 patients. A low score tied to worse overall survival and to worse time without the cancer returning. The survival link held in every subgroup they tried. The return link held in most subgroups. The authors say a cheap blood-based score can help flag patients who need closer watch and stronger support.
