Using the differential from complete blood counts as a biomarker of fatigue in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer: An exploratory analysis
Palliative & Supportive Care, 06/29/09

Paddison JS et al. - The exploratory study provides empiric data showing that the severity of fatigue reported by advanced-stage NSCLC patients is significantly associated with length of survival.

When authors controlled for this effect, further linear regressions identified significant relationships between fatigue and blood concentrations of neutrophils and monocytes.
