The cancer-associated systemic inflammatory response is one of the critical indicators of tumor progression. Serum systemic inflammatory markers, such as neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, lymphocyte-monocyte ratio, systemic inflammation score, Glasgow prognostic score, prognostic nutritional index, C-reactive protein-albumin ratio, lymphocyte-C-reactive protein ratio, platelet-lymphocyte ratio, are associated with the prognosis of colorectal cancer (CRC). Further research of the prognostic value of inflammatory marks in CRC can provide help for the prognosis of CRC.
