Naples Prognostic Score

Naples Prognostic Score (Galizia 2017): albumin < 4 g/dL, total cholesterol <= 180 mg/dL, NLR > 2.96, and LMR <= 4.44 each score 1 point (0-4, higher = worse nutrition/inflammation profile).

Example

Serum albumin
3.5 g/dL
Total cholesterol

What the result means

0
Group 0 (lowest-risk).
1-2
Group 1.
3-4
Group 2 (highest-risk). Albumin < 4, cholesterol <= 180, NLR > 2.96, LMR <= 4.44 each +1. A prognostic score, not a diagnosis.
