The prognosis of inflammation-related indicators like lactate dehydrogenase/albumin ratio (LAR) and the platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is not yet clear. Our objective is to establish and verify the nomogram using LAR and PLR ratio for the first time to explore the prognostic value in NPC.
