Figure 1 Comparison of preoperative neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) levels between the 2 groups(A) NLR was calculated from complete blood count results (NLR=neutrophil count/lymphocyte count); (B) suPAR levels were measured using ELISA. Normality was assessed using the Shapiro-Wilk test. For Figure A, the data did not follow a normal distribution and were presented as median (interquartile range), with comparisons performed using the Mann-Whitney U test. For Figure B, the data were normally distributed and presented as mean±standard deviation, with comparisons made using the independent samples t test. *** indicates P<0.001.
