Influence of nutritional status and body composition on postoperative events and outcome in patients treated for primary localized retroperitoneal sarcoma. Radiol Oncol 2024; 58:110-123. [PMID: 38378038 PMCID: PMC10878779 DOI: 10.2478/raon-2024-0013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Accepted: 11/03/2023] [Indexed: 02/22/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Retroperitoneal sarcomas (RPS) are rare tumours of mesenchymal origin, commonly presented as a large tumour mass at time of diagnosis. We investigated the impact of body composition on outcome in patients operated on for primary localized RPS. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively analysed data for all patients operated on for primary RPS at our institution between 1999 and 2020. Preoperative skeletal muscle area (SMA), visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue area (VAT and SAT) and muscle radiation attenuation (MRA) were calculated using computed tomography scans at the level of third lumbar vertebra. European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP2) criteria were applied to define myopenia. Using maximum log-rank statistic method we determined the optimal cut-off values of body composition parameters. Myosteatosis was defined based on determined MRA cut-offs. RESULTS In total 58 patient were eligible for the study. With a median follow-up of 116 months, the estimated 5-year overall survival (OS) and local-recurrence free survival (LRFS) were 66.8% and 77.6%, respectively. Patients with myopenia had significantly lower 5-year OS compared to non-myopenic (p = 0.009). Skeletal muscle index and subcutaneous adipose tissue index predicted LRFS on univariate analysis (p = 0.052 and p = 0.039, respectively). In multivariate analysis high visceral-to-subcutaneous adipose tissue area ratio (VSR) independently predicted higher postoperative complication rate (89.2% vs. 10.8%, p = 0.008). Myosteatosis was associated with higher postoperative morbidity. CONCLUSIONS Myopenia affected survival, but not postoperative outcome in RPS. Visceral obesity, VSR (> 0.26) and myosteatosis were associated with higher postoperative morbidity. VSR was better prognostic factor than VAT in RPS.

Abstract
Objective To analyze the recurrence and metastasis patterns and prognosis after complete resection of retroperitoneal liposarcoma. Methods The clinical postoperative follow-up data and results of patients who underwent complete resection of retroperitoneal liposarcoma from September 10, 2014, to September 8, 2021, at Hebei Medical University hospital were collected retrospectively. Results A total of 60 patients with complete resection of retroperitoneal liposarcoma, including 33 cases of retroperitoneal liposarcoma recurrence, 2 cases of liver metastasis, and 1 case of lung metastasis, were included. The results showed that 100% of the recurrent sites were located in the primary region of the tumor, with most recurrences located near the kidney, paracolic sulci, and iliac vessels. Three patients had distant metastasis without obvious recurrence on imaging examination. The pathological type of retroperitoneal liposarcoma, Ki67 expression, and presence of serum albumin were risk factors for recurrence and metastasis after complete resection of retroperitoneal liposarcoma. The malignancy and Ki67 expression were independent risk factors for recurrence and metastasis as well as for overall survival of patients undergoing complete resection of retroperitoneal liposarcoma. Conclusion Complete resection remains the most effective method to treat retroperitoneal liposarcoma. Patients with pathological types of retroperitoneal liposarcoma showing dedifferentiation, pleomorphism, mixed type, and high Ki67 expression should be closely monitored and observed after complete resection, especially for imaging changes in the primary tumor area.

Retroperitoneal Soft Tissue Sarcoma: Emerging Therapeutic Strategies. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:5469. [PMID: 38001729 PMCID: PMC10670057 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15225469] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2023] [Revised: 11/09/2023] [Accepted: 11/14/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcoma (RPS) is a rare and heterogenous disease for which surgery is the cornerstone of treatment. However, the local recurrence rate is much higher than in soft tissue sarcoma of the extremities since wide resection is usually unfeasible in RPS due to its large size, indistinct tumour borders, anatomical constraints and the thinness of the overlying peritoneum. Local recurrence is the leading cause of death for low-grade RPS, whereas high-grade tumours are prone to distant metastases. In recent decades, the role of emerging therapeutic strategies, such as more extended surgery and (neo)adjuvant treatments to improve oncological outcome in primary localised RPS, has been extensively investigated. In this review, the recent data on the evolving multidisciplinary management of primary localised RPS are comprehensively discussed. The heterogeneity of RPS, with their different histological subtypes and biological behaviour, renders a standard therapeutic 'one-size-fits-all' approach inappropriate, and treatment should be modified according to histological type and malignancy grade. There is sufficient evidence that frontline extended surgery with compartmental resection including all ipsilateral retroperitoneal fat and liberal en bloc resection of adjacent organs and structures, even if they are not macroscopically involved, increases local tumour control in low-grade sarcoma and liposarcoma, but not in leiomyosarcoma for which complete macroscopic resection seems sufficient. Additionally, preoperative radiotherapy is not indicated for all RPSs, but seems to be beneficial in well-differentiated liposarcoma and grade I/II dedifferentiated liposarcoma, and probably in solitary fibrous tumour. Whether neoadjuvant chemotherapy is of benefit in high-grade RPS remains unclear from retrospective data and is subject of the ongoing randomised STRASS 2 trial, from which the results are eagerly awaited. Personalised, histology-tailored multimodality treatment is promising and will likely further evolve as our understanding of the molecular and genetic characteristics within RPS improves.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The safety of multivisceral resection of retroperitoneal sarcoma is an issue. Previous reports have investigated its associations with the pattern of resection and factors recognized mostly per operatively. METHODS All consecutive RPS resections from May 2015 to April 2022 were studied retrospectively with respect to adverse events. Two univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to investigate the associations between severe adverse events and factors recognized pre- and per operatively. Associations of adverse events with overall survival (OS) and local recurrence (LR) were investigated. RESULTS A total of 265 surgical interventions corresponding to 251 patients were recorded (38 RPS surgeries/year). Severe postoperative adverse events (Clavien-Dindo ≥ 3) occurred in 50 patients (18.9%), 15 (5.6%) patients underwent an iterative laparotomy, and 6 patients (2.3%) died within 90 days. On multivariate analysis including all parameters known preoperatively, male sex, performance status, dedifferentiated liposarcoma histology, and low serum albumin level were found to be significant predictors of major complications, whereas the timing of surgery and preoperative treatment were not. On univariate analysis including all per operative parameters, transfusion requirement, operative time, number of digestive anastomoses, and pancreas and/or major arterial resection were found to entail higher operative risk. On multivariate analysis, only transfusion requirement was significant. There was no impact of postoperative adverse events on OS or LR. CONCLUSIONS The recognition of preoperative parameters that impact safety could mitigate the extent of the surgery, specifically the resection of adherent organs not overtly invaded. For the best decision, this surgery should be performed in referral centers.

Abstract
Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are an uncommon and biologically heterogeneous group of tumors arising from mesenchymal cells. The incidence is estimated at five cases per 100,000 people per year. Retroperitoneal sarcomas (RPS) account for 10-15% of all STS, and their management depends on their anatomical characteristics and histotype. Due to their very low incidence, it is recommended that RPS be treated in reference centers and evaluated by an experienced multidisciplinary team (MDT). In Spain, the Spanish Group for Research in Sarcomas (GEIS) brings together experts from various specialties to promote research on sarcomas and improve treatment results. This paper summarizes the GEIS recommendations for the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of patients with RPS.

Abstract
Until recently, the recommendation for primary retroperitoneal sarcomas (RPS) was to perform a complete en-bloc gross excision, (neo) adjuvant treatments being options which were not validated by randomized studies, with a large discrepancy of use between centers. The heterogeneity of RPS, with their different biological behaviour, renders a homogenous therapeutic and surgical approach probably inappropriate. Recent studies, both surgical and dedicated to adjuvant treatments, allow refining these recommendations. This review summarizes recent advances and directions.

Abstract
Retroperitoneal sarcomas are extremely rare, comprising <15% of primary sarcomas. Distant metastasis occurs in about 20% of cases, with pulmonary and hepatic metastasis as the most common sites of hematogenous spread. Although surgical resection is well established as the main treatment of localized primary disease, there are limited guidelines for the surgical treatment of intra-abdominal and distant metastases. There are inadequate systemic treatment options for patients with metastatic sarcoma, thereby necessitating the consideration of surgical options in carefully selected patients. Key points to consider include tumor biology, patient fitness and co-morbidities, overall prognosis, and goals of care. Multidisciplinary sarcoma tumor board discussion for each case is an essential practice in order to deliver the best care to these patients. The purpose of this review is to summarize the published literature on the past and present role of surgery in the treatment of oligometastatic retroperitoneal sarcoma in order to inform the management of this difficult disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Protein-energy loss and inflammation are the main risk factors in the occurrence of complications in hemodialysis patients. The Prognostic Inflammatory and Nutritional Index (PINI) is a simple, inexpensive test to identify the early onset of inflammation and malnutrition in hemodialysis patients, critically ill subjects and those with malignancies. METHODS A systemic review of English literature was conducted on the topic published between 1985 and 2022. A focused and sensitive search strategy was applied to the PUBMED database to identify relevant scientific articles in English. Once articles were identified, a detailed quality and bias assessment was performed. Two independent researchers analyzed the detailed data extraction. RESULTS PINI proved to be a sensitive, powerful, low-cost and simple test. PINI has been useful in assessing evolution and prognostics in clinical care, with values above one being associated with a high risk of mortality and morbidity. It is useful in cases with surgical and postoperative complications, long hospitalization, as well as increased associated expenses. CONCLUSIONS This is the first review of the literature on the above-mentioned topic (PINI) and is a valuable candidate for validating prognosis in patients with different pathologies.

Abstract
Surgery is the cornerstone of treatment for retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS). Surgery should be performed by a surgical oncologist with sub-specialization in this disease and in the context of a multidisciplinary team of sarcoma specialists. For primary RPS, the goal of surgery is to achieve the complete en bloc resection of the tumor along with involved organs and structures to maximize the clearance of the disease. The extent of resection also needs to consider the risk of complications. Unfortunately, the overarching challenge in primary RPS treatment is that even with optimal surgery, tumor recurrence occurs frequently. The pattern of recurrence after surgery (e.g., local versus distant) is strongly associated with the specific histologic type of RPS. Radiation and systemic therapy may improve outcomes in RPS and there is emerging data studying the benefit of non-surgical treatments in primary disease. Topics in need of further investigation include criteria for unresectability and management of locally recurrent disease. Moving forward, global collaboration among RPS specialists will be key for continuing to advance our understanding of this disease and find more effective treatments.

Abstract
The prognostic inflammatory and nutritional index (PINI) is a simple scoring formula allowing the follow-up of dietary protein restriction and infectious complications affecting critically ill patients hospitalized in medical and surgical wards. The World Health organization (WHO) has recently recommended using the binary CRP (C-reactive protein) and AGP (α1-acid glycoprotein) numerators of the PINI formula in underprivileged inhabitants of developing countries to evaluate their (sub)clinical infectious states making their chronic malnutrition worse. These studies, mainly located in Africa and Asia, demonstrate that children and women enduring the combined effects of infectious burden and (micro)nutrient deprivation (principally retinol and iron) usually manifest persistent refractoriness and slackened recovery throughout dietary rehabilitation. The additive measurement of ALB (albumin) and TTR (transthyretin) composing the denominator of the PINI formula is shown to be helpful in grading the downsizing of lean body mass (LBM), a cornerstone of bodybuilding. The confrontation of these four objective parameters thus allows the quantification of the respective importance of nutritional and inflammatory components of any disease process, taking into account that TTR is the sole plasma protein remaining highly correlated to the fluctuations of LBM. The below review highlights the prevailing roles played by protein nutritional states in the release of plasma retinol to target tissues and to the restoration of iron-deficient anemias.

Abstract
Retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS) is a rare disease with over 100 histologic types and accounts for 10-15% of all soft tissue sarcomas. Due to the rarity of RPS, sarcoma centers in Europe and North America have created the Transatlantic RPS Working Group (TARPSWG) to study this disease and establish best practices for its management. Current guidelines dictate complete resection of all macro and microscopic disease as the gold standard for patients with RPS. Complete extirpation often requires a multi-visceral resection. In addition, recent evidence suggests that en bloc compartmental resections are associated with reduced rates of local recurrence. However, this approach must be balanced by the potential for added morbidity. Strategies to mitigate postoperative complications include optimization of the patient through improved preoperative nutrition and pre-habilitation therapy, referral to a high-volume sarcoma center, and implementation of enhanced recovery protocols. This review will focus on the factors associated with perioperative complications following surgery for RPS and outline approaches to mitigate poor surgical outcomes in this patient population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgery is the mainstay of treatment for retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS), but local recurrence is common. Biologic behavior and recurrence patterns differ significantly among histologic types of RPS, with implications for management. The Transatlantic Australasian RPS Working Group (TARPSWG) published a consensus approach to primary RPS, and to complement this, one for recurrent RPS in 2016. Since then, additional studies have been published, and collaborative discussion is ongoing to address the clinical challenges of local recurrence in RPS. METHODS An extensive literature search was performed, and the previous consensus statements for recurrent RPS were updated after review by TARPSWG members. The search included the most common RPS histologic types: liposarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, solitary fibrous tumor, undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor. RESULTS Recurrent RPS management was evaluated from diagnosis to follow-up evaluation. For appropriately selected patients, resection is safe. Nomograms currently are available to help predict outcome after resection. These and other new findings have been combined with expert recommendations to provide 36 statements, each of which is attributed a level of evidence and grade of recommendation. In this updated document, more emphasis is placed on histologic type and clarification of the intent for surgical treatment, either curative or palliative. Overall, the fundamental tenet of optimal care for patients with recurrent RPS remains individualized treatment after multidisciplinary discussion by an experienced team with expertise in RPS. CONCLUSIONS Updated consensus recommendations are provided to help guide decision-making for treatment of locally recurrent RPS and better selection of patients who would potentially benefit from surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Most retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS) operations require combined multi-organ resection, and the proportion of unplanned reoperation is high. However, there are no relevant studies on reoperation for RPS. METHODS Patients who underwent at least once unplanned reoperation at Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center, Fudan University, China, from August 2009 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The baseline characteristics, primary surgery, and reoperation information, postoperative complications, and survival were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 51 patients were included. Among them, 21 (41.2%) were male and 30 (58.8%) were female. The median age was 51 (interquartile range [IQR], 49-63) years. Most (88.3%) had a history of abdominal surgery. Dedifferentiated liposarcoma, well-differentiated liposarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, and others accounted for 50.9%, 21.6%, 15.7%, and 11.8%, respectively. The conditions of the primary operation were as follows: 35 (68.6%) patients achieved complete surgical resection, 48 patients had combined organ resection, and a median of 3 (IQR, 2-4) organs was removed, of which 5 (9.9%) were combined with pancreaticoduodenectomy. The median operative time was 330 (IQR, 245-440) min, and the median estimated blood loss was 1500 (IQR, 500-2600) ml. The median postoperative hospital stay was 42 (IQR, 23-82) days. For reoperation, the most common reasons were bleeding (31.3%), complications related to intestinal anastomosis (27.4%), and intestinal perforation (19.9%). The mortality rate after reoperation was 39.2% (20/51). Twelve (23.5%) patients underwent reoperation at least twice. CONCLUSIONS Unplanned reoperation among retroperitoneal sarcoma correlates with established measures of surgical quality.

Abstract
Objective: In order to investigate the prognostic value of a novel biomarker combining serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and hemoglobin (HB) levels in patients with resectable gastric cancer. Introduction: This retrospective study assessed the relationship between CEA, hemoglobin levels, a novel combined prognostic biomarker (HB-CEA) and clinicopathological features of gastric cancer. Their prognostic values in gastric cancer were also analyzed. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study evaluated the CEA, hemoglobin levels and clinicopathological features of patients with resectable gastric cancer. Kaplan-Meier curves, univariate and multivariate Cox proportional models were used to determine the prognostic significance of these factors for overall survival (OS) in the training and validation sets (n=353 and n=388, respectively). Based on optimal cutoff values of CEA and hemoglobin (3.395 ng/mL and 125.5 g/L, respectively), patients were stratified into three groups: HB-CEA=0, 1, and 2 (CEA <3.395 ng/mL and HB ≥125.5 g/L; CEA ≥3.395 ng/mL or HB <125.5 g/L; and CEA ≥3.395 ng/mL and HB <125.5 g/L, respectively). Results: The area under the curve was larger for HB-CEA than for either HB or CEA alone (training set: 0.677, 0.650, and 0.629; validation set: 0.670, 0.605, and 0.605, respectively). HB-CEA was strongly associated with age, tumor size, differentiation, pathological TNM stage (pTNM), depth of tumor invasion, lymph node metastasis, and survival status (all p<0.05). A higher HB-CEA score correlated with poor survival (Kaplan-Meier curves, all p<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that HB-CEA was an independent prognostic factor for OS (p<0.05). Conclusion: Preoperative HB-CEA, as a potential novel hematological biomarker, can predict the progression of gastric cancer and the prognosis of patients, and is of great value in guiding clinical practice. Therefore, patients with a higher HB-CEA score should receive more extensive follow-up for early detection and intervention of tumor progression.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is a common complication in surgery, but incidence and relevance following multivisceral resection are unknown. METHODS Data from 100 consecutive patients treated for primary retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS) were analyzed from our institutional prospectively maintained database from January 2019 to April 2020. DGE severity was graded according to the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery and classified as primary or secondary to other complications. The primary outcome was incidence and grade of clinically relevant DGE (grades B-C). Secondary outcomes were correlation with patient, tumor, and treatment characteristics, and non-DGE morbidity [Clavien-Dindo (CD) grade ≥ 3]. RESULTS Forty-two patients developed DGE and 28 had clinically relevant DGE. DGE was primary in 10 patients and secondary in 18 patients; the most common associated complications were: infections (11/18, 61.1%), pancreatic leak (7/18, 38.9%), bleeding (6/18, 33.3%), and bowel leak (6/18, 33.3%). DGE was related to longer length of hospital stay (P < 0.001), ICU admission (P = 0.004), ICU length of stay (P = 0.001), postoperative complications (CD [Formula: see text] 3 in 14/28 in DGE patients vs 11/72 in no-DGE; P = 0.04), and re-operation (P = 0.03). With multivariate analysis, the independent risk factors for DGE were patient comorbidities (OR 1.05; 95% CI 1.01-1.1; P = 0.04) and tumor size (OR 1.05; 95% CI 1.0-1.1; P = 0.02). DISCUSSION Following multivisceral resection, DGE is a clinically relevant event that can be caused by an underlying complication. Prompt diagnosis and treatment of both DGE and any underlying complications led to full recovery in all cases.

Abstract
Background Previous studies have shown that nutrition and systemic inflammation plays an essential role in the development of soft tissue sarcoma. However, few studies have explored the association of clinicopathologic features and local recurrence with nutritional and inflammatory markers in retroperitoneal liposarcoma (RPLS). This study sought to evaluate the prognostic value of the preoperative nutritional and inflammatory markers for local recurrence-free survival (LRFS) among surgical RPLS patients. Methods The study included 111 RPLS patients who underwent surgery between May 2010 and June 2019 at the Peking University Cancer Hospital Sarcoma Center. Time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (time-ROC) curve analysis was conducted to evaluate the ability of markers to predict LRFS. The associations of the CONUT-FAR score with clinicopathological variables and LRFS were evaluated. Results In the time-ROC curve analysis, the CONUT-FAR score was superior to other nutritional and inflammatory markers in predicting LRFS. The CONUT-FAR score was the only nutritional and inflammatory marker that independently predicted LRFS in the multivariate analysis, and patients with a high CONUT-FAR score (> 11) showed significantly decreased LRFS. Although the CONUT-FAR score failed to discriminate patients with low grade (G1) (p = 0.327) or undergoing incomplete (R2) resection (p = 0.072), it stratified patients with high grade (G2 and G3) or undergoing complete resection (R0/R1) into subgroups with significantly distinct LRFS (p < 0.001). The CONUT-FAR score also showed good clinical utility among patients with different clinical characteristics. Conclusion The preoperative CONUT-FAR score reflects both nutritional and inflammatory factors and is an effective predictor of LRFS for surgical RPLS patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcomas comprise a heterogeneous group of rare tumors of mesenchymal origin that include several well-defined histologic subtypes. In 2015, the Transatlantic Australasian RPS Working Group (TARPSWG) published consensus recommendations for the best management of primary retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS). Since then, through international collaboration, new evidence and knowledge have been generated, creating the need for an updated consensus document. METHODS The primary aim of this study was to critically evaluate the current evidence and develop an up-to-date consensus document on the approach to these difficult tumors. The resulting document applies to primary RPS that is non-visceral in origin, with exclusion criteria as previously described. The relevant literature was evaluated and an international group of experts consulted to formulate consensus statements regarding the best management of primary RPS. A level of evidence and grade of recommendation were attributed to each new/updated recommendation. RESULTS Management of primary RPS was considered from diagnosis to follow-up. This rare and complex malignancy is best managed by an experienced multidisciplinary team in a specialized referral center. The best chance of cure is at the time of primary presentation, and an individualized management plan should be made based on the 29 consensus statements included in this article, which were agreed upon by all of the authors. Whenever possible, patients should be enrolled in prospective trials and studies. CONCLUSIONS Ongoing international collaboration is critical to expand upon current knowledge and further improve outcomes of patients with RPS. In addition, prospective data collection and participation in multi-institution trials are strongly encouraged.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Paratesticular liposarcoma accounts for approximately 7% of scrotal tumors. They are rare lesions of the reproductive system with approximately 90% of the lesions originating from the spermatic cord. Surgery, with the goal of complete resection, is the mainstay for treatment of this disease. However, treatment consisting of extended resection to decrease local recurrence remains controversial.
CASE SUMMARY We report the cases of two patients with paratesticular liposarcomas who were treated with radical testicular tumor resection without adjuvant therapy. Follow-up investigations at 9 mo showed no sign of recurrence.
CONCLUSION Surgery is the first-line treatment, regardless of whether it is a recurrent or primary tumor. Extended resection carries a higher risk of complications and should not be performed routinely. Preoperative radiotherapy can reduce the local recurrence rate without affecting the overall survival.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Cancer cachexia is a metabolic disturbance resulting in a loss of skeletal muscle mass that is generally not reversed through traditional nutritional interventions. We review on both the impact of nutritional status on cancer treatment side effects, as well as cancer- specific outcomes. RECENT FINDINGS Cancer-specific cachexia and sarcopenia are associated with increased treatment-associated toxicity, and overall worse cancer-specific outcomes across all cancer types in surgical, chemotherapeutic, and radiotherapeutic populations. Despite the fact that cancer cachexia is generally thought to be irreversible, there is some evidence that nutritional intervention can be helpful. SUMMARY Nutritional status is an important factor to consider in determining cancer therapy. Patients with poor nutritional status should be identified prior to the initiation of therapy and be monitored judiciously.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Existing prognostic tools for retroperitoneal sarcomas (RPS) utilize parameters that can be accurately determined only postoperatively. This study evaluated the application of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels for predicting prognosis in primary RPS. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively analyzed our database of patients with primary RPS operated between 2008 and 2018. The NLR was calculated from preoperative blood tests and its association with outcomes was determined. RESULTS The NLR values of 78 suitable patients were analyzed. Patients were classified in the NLR-high group if the NLR was ≥2.1. High-grade tumors were more common in the NLR-high group (71.6% vs 48%, P = .02). NLR-high patients had impaired overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) compared to NLR-low patients (median OS not reached vs 74 months 95% confidence interval [CI]: 21.6-126.4, P = .03; median PFS not reached vs 48 months 95% CI: 6.5-98.6, P = .06, respectively). Multivariate analysis showed statistical significance only for PFS but not for OS (hazard ratio [HR] = 4.1, P = .03; HR = 2.3, P = .3). Patients with low CRP levels had improved OS and PFS. CONCLUSIONS The NLR may serve as a preoperative, easily derived marker for prognosis in RPS. Serum biomarkers may prove useful in these large and spatially heterogeneous tumors.

CONUT Score or/and Peripheral Blood CD4+/CD8+ Ratio-Based Web Dynamic Nomograms to Predict the Individualized Survival of Patients with Advanced Osteosarcoma. Cancer Manag Res 2020; 12:4193-4208. [PMID: 32581591 PMCID: PMC7276395 DOI: 10.2147/cmar.s251814] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2020] [Accepted: 05/10/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Nutritional and immune status is paramount for the overall survival (OS) of patients with advanced osteosarcoma. Comprehensive prognostic predictors based on the two indices are scarce. This study aimed to construct and validate individualized web dynamic nomograms based on CONUT score or/and peripheral blood CD4+/CD8+ ratio for OS in patients with advanced osteosarcoma. Materials and Methods The clinical data of 376 advanced osteosarcoma patients from January 2000 to December 2019 were retrospectively collected. Data from the 301 patients (diagnosed in the first 15 years) were used as the development set and data from the remaining 75 patients were assigned as the validation set. Multivariate Cox regression analyses were conducted and three prediction models were constructed, namely, CD4+/CD8+ ratio univariate model (model 1), CONUT score univariate model (model 2), and CD4+/CD8+ ratio plus CONUT score (model 3). These models were visualized by conventional nomograms and individualized web dynamic nomograms, and their performances were further evaluated by C-index, calibration curve, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA), respectively. Results In multivariate Cox analysis, age, metastasis, ALP, CD4+/CD8+ ratio, chemotherapy, and CONUT score were identified as independent prognostic factors for OS. The calibration curves of the three models all showed good agreement between the actual observation and nomogram prediction for 1-year overall survival. In the development set, the C-index and area under the curve (AUC) of model 3 (0.837, 0.848) were higher than that of model 1 (0.765, 0.773) and model 2 (0.712, 0.749). Similar trends were observed in the validation set. The net benefits of model 3 were better than the other two models within the threshold probability of 36–80% in DCA. Conclusion CONUT score and peripheral CD4+/CD8+ ratio are easily available, reliable, and economical prognostic predictors for survival prediction and stratification in patients with advanced osteosarcoma, but the two predictors combined can establish a better prognosis prediction model.

Abstract
In front of a primary retroperitoneal tumour, it is necessary to have in mind all possible diagnoses in order to specify the diagnostic strategy and the treatment. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of tumours, mesenchymal benign and malignant tumours (including sarcomas and, currently, neurogenic tumours), parasympathetic tumours, extragonadal germ cell tumours, and lymphoid tumours have been identified. By definition, primary retroperitoneal tumours start independently from the retroperitoneal organs. Secondary lesions, carcinoma metastasis, and adenopathy are excluded from this definition, but they can also develop in the retroperitoneal space and lead to misdiagnoses. In the absence of positive tumour markers or an evocative biology, percutaneous biopsy is necessary. Pathological diagnosis is necessary to decide whether surgery must be done, its timing among the other treatments, and its extension. This paper summarizes all the diagnostic possibilities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Outcomes of palliative-intent surgery in retroperitoneal sarcomas (RPS) are not well understood. This study aims to define indications for and outcomes after palliative-intent RPS resection. METHODS Using a retrospective 8-institution database, patients undergoing resection of primary/recurrent RPS with palliative intent were identified. Logistic regression and Cox-proportional hazards models were constructed to analyze factors associated with postoperative complications and overall survival (OS). RESULTS Of 3088 patients, 70 underwent 87 palliative-intent procedures. Most common indications were pain (26%) and bowel obstruction (21%). Dedifferentiated liposarcoma (n = 17, 24%), leiomyosarcoma (n = 13, 19%) were predominant subtypes. Median OS was 10.69 months (IQR, 3.91-23.23). R2 resection (OR, 8.60; CI, 1.42-52.15; P = .019), larger tumors (OR, 10.87; CI, 1.44-82.11; P = .021) and low preoperative albumin (OR, 0.14; CI, 0.04-0.57; P = .006) were associated with postoperative complications. Postoperative complications (HR, 1.95; CI, 1.02-3.71; P = .043) and high-grade histology (HR, 6.56; CI, 1.72-25.05; P = .006) rather than resection status were associated with reduced OS. However, in R2-resected patients, development of postoperative complications significantly reduced survival (P = .042). CONCLUSIONS Postoperative complications and high-grade histology rather than resection status impacts survival in palliative-intent RPS resections. Given the higher incidence of postoperative complications which may diminish survival, palliative-intent R2 resection should be offered only after cautious consideration.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcomas (RPSs) are mesenchymal neoplasms. The prevalence of protein energetic malnutrition (PEM) and its impact in RPS patients who were candidates for surgery is unknown. MATERIALS AND METHODS A prospective feasibility study enrolled 35 patients with primary RPS who were candidates for extended multivisceral resection. PEM was screened at enrollment. Preoperative high protein β-hydroxy-β-methyl butyrate oral nutritional support (ONS) was provided according to the degree of PEM. After surgery, nutritional support followed standard practice, targeting at least 1 g/kg/day protein and 20 kcal/kg/day caloric intake within the third postoperative day (POD). PEM was re-evaluated before surgery on POD 10, and at 4 and 12 months after surgery. Primary outcomes were the patient's compliance to preoperative ONS and the physician's compliance to postoperative nutritional targets. RESULTS PEM was documented in 46% of patients at baseline; ONS met a 91% adherence (overall well tolerated). After ONS, PEM reduced to 38% (p = 0.45). The postoperative caloric target was reached on day 4.1 (standard error ± 2.7), with a protocol adherence rate of 52%. On POD 10, 91% of patients experienced PEM, the worsening of which was greater after resection of four or more organs (p = 0.06). At 4 and 12 months after surgery, almost all patients had fully recovered. A significant correlation between PEM at surgery and postoperative complications was found (p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS Relevant PEM prevalence in RPS is documented for the first time. PEM correlates with greater morbidity. In this setting, preoperative ONS was feasible and well-tolerated. Disease-related factors for PEM and the ideal perioperative caloric target in the context of extended multivisceral resection need to be further investigated. Nutritional support should be included in enhanced recovery after surgery programs for RPS. TRIAL REGISTRY ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03877588.

Abstract
The association between serum albumin level and clinical outcomes has been reported for several hematological malignancies. Our study aimed to identify the relationship between serum albumin level at the time of diagnosis and subsequent clinical outcomes in patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemias (AMLs) other than acute promyelocytic leukemias (APLs). A total of 243 patients with de novo non-M3 AML were enrolled in this study. Variables including gender, age, serum albumin, white blood cell (WBC) count, hemoglobin (Hb), platelet (PLT) count, blasts at peripheral blood (PB) and bone marrow (BM), immunophenotype and cytogenetics at diagnosis, BM response after one course of chemotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) treatment were studied. We found that normal albumin level (serum albumin >3.5 g/dL) was significantly associated with superior overall survival (HR = 0.375, p < .001) and leukemia-free survival (HR = 0.411, p < .001). These results demonstrate that albumin could serve as a simple, cheap, and objective prognostication factor in refinement of AML regimens.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The aim of this report is to critically review existing questionnaires and tools to assess nutritional status in different populations and pathological conditions. RECENT FINDINGS A total of 16 instruments to evaluate nutritional status were recorded, which were based on anthropometrical determinations, biochemical markers, clinical examinations and subjective questionnaires, depending on the nutritional assessment focus, involving different concepts: screening of the risk, diagnosis and severity of malnutrition, as well as the consequences of undernutrition or overnutrition. SUMMARY A variety of questionnaires, equations and tools were found with ability to assess nutritional status for metabolic care or clinical nutrition purposes, but apparently there is no optimal, universal and reliable nutritional status screening system for all metabolic conditions. Novel assessment instruments should provide high sensibility and specificity, be precise and reliable as well as inexpensive and simple, in order to avoid the additional burden of excessive loads of costs, work and time while dynamically overcoming the influence of disease diversity.
