Abstract
The prognostic role of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in patients with ovarian cancer remains inconsistent. This meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the predictive value of this biomarker for prognoses in ovarian cancer patients.We systematically searched PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase for eligible studies embracing multivariate results. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale were used to assess the study quality. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs), and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated.Ten studies involving 2919 patients were included in this meta-analysis. In multivariate analysis, the group with higher NLR had worse overall survival (OS) (HR = 1.34, 95% CI = 1.16-1.54) and shorter PFS (HR = 1.36, 95% CI = 1.17-1.57) than the control group. Furthermore, PLR values higher than the cut-off were associated with not only poorer OS (HR = 1.97, 95% CI = 1.61-2.40) but also more unfavorable PFS (HR = 1.79, 95% CI = 1.46-2.20). Univariate analysis also indicated the same results. Additionally, subgroup analysis showed that when the cut-off values for NLR and PLR were higher, their predictive effects became stronger.This comprehensive meta-analysis suggested that the values of inflammatory marker of NLR was associated with ovarian cancer survival. Therefore, inflammatory markers can potentially serve as prognostic biomarkers.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
