Systemic inflammatory response index improves the prediction of postoperative pneumonia following meningioma resection

摘要

Meningiomas are common tumors of the central nervous system,[1,2] and surgery is an effective treatment for meningiomas. Postoperative pneumonia (POP) is one of the common complications after meningioma resection. Even with the improvement of surgical techniques and postoperative care, the incidence of POP has still not been significantly improved. Exploring new predictive indicators can help to screen high-risk POP patients, intervene early, and improve patient prognosis.
