Abstract
PURPOSE Atherosclerosis and cancer may progress through common pathological factors. This study was performed to investigate the association between the abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) volume and outcomes following surgical treatment for pancreatic cancer. METHODS The subjects of this retrospective study were 194 patients who underwent pancreatic cancer surgery between 2007 and 2020. The AAC volume was assessed through routine preoperative computed tomography. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to evaluate the impact of the AAC volume on oncological outcomes. RESULTS A higher AAC volume (≥ 312 mm3) was identified in 66 (34%) patients, who were significantly older and had a higher prevalence of diabetes and sarcopenia. Univariate analysis revealed several risk factors for overall survival (OS), including male sex, an AAC volume ≥ 312 mm3, elevated carbohydrate antigen 19-9, prolonged operation time, increased intraoperative bleeding, lymph node metastasis, poor differentiation, and absence of adjuvant chemotherapy. Multivariate analysis identified an AAC volume ≥ 312 mm3, prolonged operation time, lymph node metastasis, poor differentiation, and absence of adjuvant chemotherapy as independent OS risk factors. The OS rate was significantly lower in the high AAC group than in the low AAC group. CONCLUSION The AAC volume may serve as a preoperative prognostic indicator for patients with pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
Background Solid pseudopapillary neoplasms (SPNs) of the pancreas are indolent rare tumors with malignant potential. The risk factors associated with the malignant behavior of SPNs are still unclear. Methods A retrospective analysis of patients with SPNs who underwent surgical treatment in the First Hospital of Jilin University from January 2010 to January 2022 was conducted. The clinical baseline data, pathology, imaging, and laboratory indicators of the patients were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression to identify the independent risk factors associated with the high-risk groups, and a predictive model was established in the form of a nomogram. Results In multivariate analysis, clinical symptoms (P < 0.001), unclear tumor margins (P = 0.001), incomplete tumor capsules (P = 0.005), maximum tumor diameters ≥ 7.2 cm (P = 0.003), and prognostic nutritional index values < 47.45 (P = 0.007) were independent risk factor for SPNs with high-risk groups. A nomogram model was successfully established to predict high-risk groups of SPNs. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.856. The calibration prediction curve was in good agreement with the standard curve. Conclusion The nomogram model based on clinical symptoms, inflammatory markers, and imaging features had a high application value in the preoperative prediction of the high-risk groups of SPNs. A novel nomogram of the affiliated hospital of Jilin University-SPNs risk model was proposed for routine application to guide the patient counseling in clinical practice.

Abstract
Solid pseudopapillary tumor of the pancreas (SPTP) is a rare neoplasm predominantly observed in young females. Pathologically, CTNNB1 mutations, β-catenin nuclear accumulation, and subsequent Wnt-signaling pathway activation are the leading molecular features. Accurate preoperative diagnosis often relies on imaging techniques and endoscopic biopsies. Surgical resection remains the mainstay treatment. Risk models, such as the Fudan Prognostic Index, show promise as predictive tools for assessing the prognosis of SPTP. Establishing three types of metachronous liver metastasis can be beneficial in tailoring individualized treatment and follow-up strategies. Despite advancements, challenges persist in understanding its etiology, establishing standardized treatments for unresectable or metastatic diseases, and developing a widely recognized grading system. This comprehensive review aims to elucidate the enigma by consolidating current knowledge on the epidemiology, clinical presentation, pathology, molecular characteristics, diagnostic methods, treatment options, and prognostic factors.

Abstract
Objective Given high risks of major bleeding during retroperitoneal sarcoma(RPS) surgeries, severe complications and deaths are common to see perioperatively. Thus, effective anesthetic management is the key point to ensuring the safety of patients. This study aimed to introduce anesthesia management and mortalities in RPS patients receiving massive blood transfusions during surgeries. Methods Records of RPS surgeries under general anesthesia from January 2016 through December 2021 were retrospectively retrieved from our database. Patients who received massive blood transfusions (MBT) exceeding 20 units in 24h duration of operations were finally included in this study. Demographics, modalities of anesthesia management, blood loss, transfusion, peri-anesthesia biochemical tests as well as morbidities and mortalities were collected. Risk factors of postoperative 60d mortality were determined through logistic regression in uni-and multi-variety analysis using the statistics software STATA 17.0. Results A total of 70 patients (male 31) were included. The mean age was 50.1 ± 15.8 years. All patients received combined resections of sarcoma with involved organs under general anesthesia. Mean operation time and anesthesia time were 491.7 ± 131.1mins and 553.9 ± 132.6mins, respectively. The median intraoperative blood loss was 7000ml (IQR 5500,10000ml). Median red blood cells (RBC) and fresh frozen plasma (FFP) transfusion were 25.3u (IQR 20,28u), and 2400ml (IQR 2000,3000ml), respectively. Other blood products infusions included prothrombin complex concentrate (PCCs), fibrinogen concentrate (FC), platelet(plt) and albumin(alb) in 82.9% (58/70), 88.6% (62/70), 81.4% (57/70) and 12.9% (9/70) of patients. The postoperative severe complication rate(Clavien-Dindo grade≥3a) was 35.7%(25/70). A total of 7 patients (10%) died during the postoperative 60-day period. BMI, volumes of crystalloid infusion in anesthesia, and hemoglobin and lactate levels at the termination of operation were found significantly associated with postoperative occurrence of death in univariate analysis. In logistic multivariate analysis, extended anesthesia duration was found associated with postoperative venous thrombosis embolism (VTE) and severe complication. The lactate level at the immediate termination of the operation was the only risk factor related to perioperative death (p<0.05). Conclusion RPS patients who endure MBT in surgeries face higher risks of death postoperatively, which needs precise and effective anesthesia management in high-volume RPS centers. Increased blood lactate levels might be predictors of postoperative deaths which should be noted.

Abstract
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal malignant neoplasms, with a 1-year survival rate after diagnosis of 24%, and a 5-year survival rate of only 9%. While this illustrates the behavior of its main histologic type - ductal adenocarcinoma, there are other histologic subtypes of pancreatic cancer that can harbor excellent prognosis. Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm, described as a rare low-grade malignant neoplasm by the World Health Organization, is the best example of that, having an overall 5-year survival rate of about 97%. Not only the prognosis, but everything about this entity is unique: its histogenesis, epidemiology, presentation, imaging characteristics, cytology features, immunohistochemical profile, and treatment. This explains the urge to improve our understanding about this entity and thus our ability to accurately recognize and manage it. Having this in mind, this article aims to summarize the most relevant topics regarding this entity.

Abstract
Simple Summary Predicting the aggressiveness of solid pseudopapillary neoplasms (SPNs) remains a worthwhile goal. The present study aimed to identify perioperative factors that can predict patients who will develop clinically aggressive SPN. A total of 98 patients diagnosed with SPNs were analyzed retrospectively. We found that age (≥40 years; p = 0.039), symptomatic presentation (p = 0.001), tumor size (>10 cm; p < 0.001), positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) classification (Type III; p < 0.001), and lymphovascular invasion (p = 0.003) were significantly correlated with aggressive behavior of SPNs. Among these, age ≥40 years, PET/CT Type III configuration, and lymphovascular invasion were independent factors associated with an aggressive SPN. This information can help clinicians develop individualized management and surveillance plans to manage patients more competently. Abstract Predicting the aggressiveness of solid pseudopapillary neoplasms (SPNs) remains an important goal. The present study aimed to identify perioperative factors that can predict patients who will develop clinically aggressive SPN. Records of individuals with pathologically confirmed SPN from 2006 to 2017 were obtained from the patient registry database of Yonsei University, Severance Hospital. For this study, aggressive behavior was defined as SPN that had recurred, metastasized, or involved adjacent organs. A total of 98 patients diagnosed with SPNs were analyzed retrospectively. Of these, 10 were reported to have SPNs with aggressive characteristics. We found that age (≥40 years; p = 0.039), symptomatic presentation (p = 0.001), tumor size (>10 cm; p < 0.001), positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) classification (p < 0.001), and lymphovascular invasion (p = 0.003) were significantly correlated with aggressive behavior of SPNs. Multivariate analysis showed that PET/CT configuration (p = 0.002) (exp(β)111.353 (95% confidence interval (CI): 5.960–2081), age ≥40 years (p = 0.015) (exp(β) 23.242 (95% CI: 1.854–291.4)), and lymphovascular invasion (p = 0.021) (exp(β) 22.511 (95% CI: 1.595–317.6)) were the only independent factors associated with aggressive SPN. Our data suggest that age ≥40 years, PET/CT Type III configuration, and lymphovascular invasion are independent factors associated with aggressive SPN. This information can help clinicians develop individualized management and surveillance plans to manage patients more effectively.

Inflammatory Markers Predict Survival in Patients With Advanced Gastric and Colorectal Cancers Receiving Anti-PD-1 Therapy. Front Cell Dev Biol 2021; 9:638312. [PMID: 33791296 PMCID: PMC8005614 DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2021.638312] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2020] [Accepted: 02/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
There is a lack of useful biomarkers for predicting the efficacy of anti-programmed death-1 (PD-1) therapy for advanced gastric and colorectal cancer. To address this issue, in this study we investigated the correlation between inflammatory marker expression and survival in patients with advanced gastric and colorectal cancer. Data for 111 patients with advanced gastric and colorectal cancer treated with anti-PD-1 regimens were retrospectively analyzed. Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and clinical characteristics of each patient were selected as the main variables. Overall response rate, disease control rate, and progression-free survival were primary endpoints, and overall survival and immune-related adverse events (irAEs) were secondary endpoints. The chi-squared test and Fisher's exact test were used to evaluate relationships between categorical variables. Uni- and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed, and median progression-free survival and overall survival were estimated with the Kaplan-Meier method. The overall response rate and disease control rate of anti-PD-1therapy in advanced gastric and colorectal tumors were 12.61 and 66.66%, respectively. The patients with MLR < 0.31, NLR < 5, and PLR < 135 had a significantly higher disease control rate than those with MLR > 0.31, NLR > 5, and PLR > 135 (P < 0.05). The multivariate analysis revealed that MLR < 0.31, BMI > 18.5, and anti-PD-1 therapy in first-line were associated with prolonged PFS. MLR < 0.31 and BMI > 18.5 were associated with prolonged overall survival. The irAE rate differed significantly between PLR groups, and PLR < 135 was associated with an increased rate of irAEs (P = 0.028). These results indicate that the inflammatory markers NLR, MLR, and PLR have clinical utility for predicting survival or risk of irAEs in patients with advanced gastric cancer and colorectal cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) is a rare tumor that was first described by Frantz in 1959. Although this tumor is benign, some may have malignant potential that can be predicted based on demographics, imaging characteristics, and pathologic evaluation. This case series presents 3 SPN cases with discussion on gender differences, preoperative predictors of malignancy, and a suggested algorithm for diagnostic approach as well as post-surgical follow up.
CASE SUMMARY Three adult patients in a tertiary hospital found to have SPN, one elderly male and two young females. Each of the cases presented with abdominal pain and were discovered incidentally. Two cases underwent endoscopic ultrasound with fine needle aspiration and biopsy to assess tumor markers and immuno-histochemical staining (which were consistent with SPN before undergoing surgery), and one case underwent surgery directly after imaging. The average tumor size was 5 cm. Diagnosis was confirmed by histology. Two patients had post-surgical complications requiring intervention.
CONCLUSION Demographic and imaging characteristics can be sufficient to establish diagnosis for SPN, while malignant cases require pre-operative evaluation with endoscopic ultrasound fine needle aspiration/fine needle biopsy.

Abstract
Introduction Solid pseudopapillary tumors of pancreas (SPTP) is an indolent rare tumor with malignant potential. The prediction of malignancy is an enigma. The aim of this study is to explore the relationship between operative measurements and malignancy prognosis of SPTP patients. Methods A cohort of consecutive 102 patients were enrolled in this study. Preoperative measurements and clinical outcomes were analyzed. Results Eighteen patients (17.6%) were confirmed as malignant. The malignant SPTP of the optimal cut-off value was 47.9 (p=0.012) for prognostic nutritional index (PNI). The value of PNI≤47.9 and incomplete capsule were significantly correlated with malignancy. Univariate analysis showed that the PNI≤47.9 (p=0.013) and incomplete capsule (p<0.001) were predictors of disease-specific survival (DSS). Multivariate analysis identified the PNI≤47.9 (p=0.036) and incomplete capsule (p=0.023) as the independent prognostic factors of DSS. The new score of 0,1,2 based on PNI and capsule presence stratified the patients into 3 groups. The patients with low PNI and incomplete capsule achieved the worst prognosis. Conclusion The combination test of operative PNI and capsule presence would be a reliable indicator of the aggressive natural history of SPTP.

Abstract
Background Solid pseudopapillary tumor of the pancreas (SPTP) has been reported as a rare disease with low malignant potential. The aim of this study was to summarize experiences of the diagnosis and treatment for the patients reported in the Chinese population. Method 2450 SPTP cases reported in English and Chinese literature before Jan 2020 were for our review and analysis retrospectively. Result There are 389 male cases and 2061 female cases, and the ratio of male/female was 1 : 5.3. The average age was 29.3 years. The main clinical symptoms were upper abdominal pain and bloating discomfort in 51.6% of the cases and epigastric mass. 38.6% of the tumor was located at the head of the pancreas and 55.4% at the body and tail of the pancreas. The most frequent operative styles were tumor enucleation (38.4%). Pathology showed that the average diameter of the tumor was 8.2 cm and 12.3% of SPTP was malignant. 98.3% of cases had favorable survival. Conclusions SPTP is a rare indolent tumor occurring mainly in young women, and the main clinical performances are abdominal mass and abdominal pain; most tumors are distributed at the head and the tail of the pancreas; the prognosis after complete resection is excellent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ki-67 has been shown to predict outcome of patients with solid pseudopapillary tumor of the pancreas (SPTP) but has not been incorporated into a formal classification system to predict recurrence-free survival (RFS). METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study of patients with histologically confirmed diagnosis of SPTP who had at least 1 year of follow-up at two tertiary academic centers. Survival data were assessed by Kaplan-Meier method and multivariable Cox regression model. Prognostic performance was compared among various systems. RESULTS A total of 193 consecutive patients were included, ranging in age from 12 to 70 years (median 33 years). Seven patients (3.6%) developed tumor recurrence. The 3-, 5-, and 10-year RFS rates were estimated at 96.9%, 96.1%, and 94.8%, respectively. For the AJCC staging system, patients with stage I had similar prognosis to those with stage II. For the ENETS staging system, patients with stage I to III had similar prognosis. Grade based on Ki-67 was superior to both the AJCC and ENETS systems for predicting survival. Multivariate analysis revealed that large tumor size [> 10 cm; hazard ratio (HR), 6.177 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.289-29.603; P = 0.023] and Ki-67 (HR, 17.199 95% CI, 4.001-73.930; P < 0.001) were independent predictors for RFS. The Fudan Prognostic Index based on the combination of Ki-67 and tumor size showed excellent discrimination for RFS and was more accurate and informative than other grading/staging systems. CONCLUSION The Fudan Prognostic Index better predicts RFS compared with either Ki-67 alone or the current AJCC and ENETS TNM-based staging systems.

Cancer Manag Res 2019; 11:9733-9741. [PMID: 31814768 PMCID: PMC6863176 DOI: 10.2147/cmar.s231085] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2019] [Accepted: 11/10/2019] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective This study explored the effectiveness of a new inflammatory prognostic system, using preoperative neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) to predict the postoperative survival rate of patients with sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma (SSCC). Methods Patients diagnosed with SSCC who undergone surgically treated without neoadjuvant therapy were included in the study between May 2008 and October 2017. Preoperative NLR is defined as: preoperative neutrophil/postoperative lymphocyte ratio. The prognostic value was uncovered by univariate and multivariate Cox hazards analysis. Results A total of 147 patients were included in this study. Through the multivariate analysis, pathological T stage (hazard ratio [HR] 1.719, confidence interval [CI] 1.277–3.642, p<0.001), pathological N stage (HR 1.344, 95% CI 1.015–2.776, p<0.001), and preoperative NLR (HR 1.579, 95% CI 1.217–3.092, p=0.002) were independent risk factor for overall survival (OS). Pathological T stage (HR 1.835, 95% CI 1.141–3.132, <0.001), pathological N stage (HR 1.281, 95% CI 1.169–2.476, p<0.001), and preoperative NLR (HR 1.688, 95% CI 1.162–3.363, p p<0.001) were also independently associated with disease-free survival (DFS). Pathological T stage (HR p<0.001, 95% CI 1.537–3.021, p<0.001), pathological N stage (HR1.571, 95% CI 1.157–2.258, p<0.001), and preoperative NLR (HR 1.509, 95% CI 1.153–3.104, p=0.001) were independent risk factors for disease-specific survival (DSS). Conclusion The preoperative NLR is considered to be a useful predictor of postoperative survival in SSCC patients.
