Lymphocytes, neutrophils, and monocytes are vital effector cells in innate immunity. We postulated that lymphocyte to red blood cell ratio (LRR), neutrophil to red blood cell ratio (NRR), monocyte to red blood cell ratio (MRR) could represent the intensity of systemic inflammatory immunological reaction reflected through the lymphocyte, neutrophil and monocyte respectively. This study aimed to access the predictive and prognostic value of LRR, NRR, MRR and LRR-NRR-MRR score for locally advanced breast cancer.
