Serum significantly associated with histological grade , TNM stage PS . Additionally found univariate analysis (log-rank test, resp.) remained significant after controlling for age, alcohol, performance status, stage, whereas showed a borderline effect on hazard rate Conclusions. are both promising biomarkers identification NSCLC poor prognosis form possible target intensifying their therapies.
