INTRODUCTION: The high costs generated by Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) justify a search for reliable and accessible prognostic markers. This study evaluates association between the Platelet/Lymphocyte Ratio and five-year Overall Survival in patients with HL treated at INEN during the period 2007-2016. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study with survival analysis based on review of medical charts was performed in patients with diagnosis of HL. The Platelet/Lymphocyte Ratio (PLR) was calculated as the quotient between the platelet count and the absolute number of lymphocytes. Similarly, Neutrophil/Lymphocyte (NLR) and Lymphocyte/Monocyte (LMR). Five-year survival probabilities were and graphed using Kaplan-Meier curves. Magnitude of association was evaluated using Hazard Ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) obtained by crude and adjusted Cox regression. RESULTS: 224 patients older than 18 years were included, with a mean age of 42 years, made up mostly of men (58.93%). In the crude analysis being over 45 years old, albumin <4, hemoglobin <10.5, RAL <600, Ann Arbor IV and LMR <1.1 were associated with a lower survival. In the multivariate analysis, there was no association of survival with PLR ≥266.2 (HR: 0.93, 95% CI: 0.43-2.02), nor NLR ≥6.4 (HR: 0.90, 95% CI: 0.40-2.05) nor LMR ≥1.1 (HR: 0.53, 95% CI: 0.23-1.21). CONCLUSION: The Lymphocyte ratios were not significantly associated with overall survival in our study. Age≥45, and Ann Arbor stage IV were associated to less survival probability. Studies with a larger population in our region are required in order to offer significant results according to our reality.
