Impact of low sodium values on survival outcomes of patients with cancer receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors. Immunotherapy 2024:1-8. [PMID: 39016058 DOI: 10.1080/1750743x.2024.2370231] [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: 03/08/2024] [Accepted: 06/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Low serum sodium affects cancer prognosis, but its impact on immunotherapy is unclear. Objective: Assessing the association of pre- and post-ICI treatment sodium levels with survival. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients receiving ICI in January 2012-December 2023, collecting serum sodium levels at treatment initiation and 4 weeks post-ICI, with overall survival (OS) as the primary outcome. Results: Low sodium was observed in 125 and 119 patients pre-and post-treatment respectively. Pre-ICI and post-ICI low sodium correlated with decreased OS [10.6 vs. 22.9 months (p = 0.001) and 11.6 vs. 27.2 months (p = 0.009)]. Multivariate analysis identified pre-ICI low sodium [HR: 1.685; 95% CI: 1.050-2.705; p = 0.031] as an independent risk factor for worse OS. Conclusion: Low baseline serum sodium was an independent risk factor for poor OS in patients treated with ICIs.

Liu Y, Hu H, Li Z, Yang Y, Chen F, Li W, Zhang L, Huang G. Association between preoperative serum sodium and postoperative 30-day mortality in adult patients with tumor craniotomy. BMC Neurol 2023; 23:355. [PMID: 37794369 PMCID: PMC10548693 DOI: 10.1186/s12883-023-03412-2] [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: 02/19/2023] [Accepted: 09/28/2023] [Indexed: 10/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited data exist regarding preoperative serum sodium (Na) and 30-day mortality in adult patients with tumor craniotomy. Therefore, this study investigates their relationship. METHODS A secondary retrospective analysis was performed using data from the ACS NSQIP database (2012-2015). The principal exposure was preoperative Na. The outcome measure was 30-day postoperative mortality. Binary logistic regression modeling was conducted to explore the link between them, and a generalized additive model and smooth curve fitting were applied to evaluate the potential association and its explicit curve shape. We also conducted sensitivity analyses and subgroup analyses. RESULTS A total of 17,844 patients (47.59% male) were included in our analysis. The mean preoperative Na was 138.63 ± 3.23 mmol/L. The 30-day mortality was 2.54% (455/17,844). After adjusting for covariates, we found that preoperative Na was negative associated with 30-day mortality. (OR = 0.967, 95% CI:0.941, 0.994). For patients with Na ≤ 140, each increase Na was related to a 7.1% decreased 30-day mortality (OR = 0.929, 95% CI:0.898, 0.961); for cases with Na > 140, each increased Na unit was related to a 8.8% increase 30-day mortality (OR = 1.088, 95% CI:1.019, 1.162). The sensitivity analysis and subgroup analysis indicated that the results were robust. CONCLUSIONS This study shows a positive and nonlinear association between preoperative Na and postoperative 30-day mortality in adult patients with tumor craniotomy. Appropriate preoperative Na management and maintenance of serum Na near the inflection point (140) may reduce 30-day mortality.

Sodium Abnormalities Are an Independent Predictor of Complications in Total Joint Arthroplasty: A Cautionary Tale! J Arthroplasty 2021; 36:3859-3863. [PMID: 34426042 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2021.08.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2021] [Revised: 07/22/2021] [Accepted: 08/02/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Electrolyte levels are commonly obtained as part of the preoperative workup for total joint arthroplasty, but limited information exists on the interplay between electrolyte abnormalities and outcomes. METHODS The National Surgical Quality Improvement Program was queried for primary, elective total hip arthroplasty and total knee arthroplasty (THA, TKA) performed between 2011 and 2017. Three patient groups were compared: normal (control), hypernatremia, and hyponatremia. The primary outcomes were length of stay (LOS) and 30-day adverse events: complications, readmissions, reoperations, and mortality. RESULTS A total of 244,538 TKAs and 145,134 THAs were analyzed. The prevalence of hyponatremia and hypernatremia was 6.9% and 1.0%, respectively. After controlling for any baseline differences, hypernatremia was an independent predictor of ventilation >48 hours (THA, odds ratio [OR] 3.53), unplanned intubation (THA, OR 3.14), cardiac arrest (THA, OR 2.42), pneumonia (THA, OR 2.16), Clostridium difficile infection (OR 4.66 and 3.25 for THA and TKA, respectively), LOS >2 days (THA, OR 1.16), and mortality (THA, OR 4.69). Similarly, hyponatremia was an independent predictor of LOS >2 days (TKA, OR 1.21), readmission (TKA, OR 1.40), reoperation (OR 1.32 and 1.47 for THA and TKA, respectively), surgical site infections (OR 1.39 and 1.54 for THA and TKA, respectively), and transfusion (OR 1.13 and 1.20 for THA and TKA, respectively). CONCLUSION As the focus of total joint arthroplasty continues to shift toward value-based payment models and outpatient surgery, caution should be exercised in patients with abnormal preoperative sodium levels, particularly hypernatremia, because of significantly increased risk of prolonged LOS and 30-day adverse events.

Preoperative Serum Sodium Level as a Prognostic and Predictive Biomarker for Adjuvant Therapy in Esophageal Cancer. Front Oncol 2021; 10:555714. [PMID: 33552948 PMCID: PMC7858663 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2020.555714] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2020] [Accepted: 12/11/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Low serum sodium has been associated with unfavorable outcome in several cancers. The prognostic value of serum sodium in esophageal carcinoma (EC) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate preoperative serum sodium in association with outcome and survival benefit of adjuvant therapy for patients with EC. METHODS Preoperative serum sodium and clinicopathological indexes were retrospectively analyzed in 2155 patients who underwent esophagectomy at Sichuan cancer hospital. Overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were analyzed by using Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression. Benefit of adjuvant therapy was estimated by using Propensity Score Matching. RESULTS The incidence of hyponatremia and hypernatremia were 2% (43/2155) and 3.5% (76/2155) in treatment-naive patients. Both sodium disorders indicated unfavorable OS (hyponatremia, adjusted HR[95% CI] = 1.78[1.2-2.62]; hypernatremia, adjusted HR = 1.52[1.1-2.11]) and DFS (hyponatremia, adjusted HR[95% CI] = 1.52[1.03-2.23]; hypernatremia, adjusted HR = 1.45[1.06-1.99]). Decreased sodium concentrations within the normal range were associated with poor OS and DFS. Postoperative adjuvant therapy was associated with improved three-year OS (56.6 vs. 40%; adjusted HR = 0.55 [95% CI, 0.41-0.73]) and DFS (51.9 vs. 36.2%; adjusted HR = 0.63 [95% CI, 0.48-0.83]) versus surgery alone in patients with low serum sodium (Na < 139.6 mmol/liter), but not in other sodium subgroups. Meanwhile, serum sodium was inversely correlated with cell counts of leukocytes, neutrophils, monocytes and C-reactive protein levels. CONCLUSIONS These results suggested that low preoperative serum sodium is associated with poor outcome in EC patients, and may predict survival benefit of adjuvant therapy.

Abstract
Objectives: Hyponatraemia represents a negative prognostic factor in patients with cancer. The aim of this study was to assess, for the first time, the role of hyponatraemia in patients undergoing radical surgery for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Methods: A total of 89 patients with stage I-III pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma underwent radical surgery between November 2012 and October 2014. Relapse-free survival (RFS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) were estimated using Kaplan-Meier method. A Cox regression model was carried out for univariate and multivariate analyses. Fisher exact test was used to estimate correlation between variables. Results: In total, 12 patients (14%) presented with hyponatraemia at diagnosis. The median DSS was 20 months in patients with hyponatraemia and not reached in patients with eunatraemia (P < .1073), while a statistical significant difference was observed in terms of median RFS (10 months vs 17 months, respectively; P = .0233). Considering clinical features (hyponatraemia, smoke and alcoholic habit, diabetes, pain, and jaundice), patients with 4 or more of these factors had a worse prognosis (mDSS: 30 months vs not reached; hazard ratio [HR]: 0.40, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.16-0.80; P = .0120). Conclusions: The presence of hyponatraemia and its prompt correction at the diagnosis time should be considered for the correct management of patients with pancreatic carcinoma.

Abstract
Hyponatremia is an emerging issue in cancer patients. However, few studies have explored the prognostic value of preoperative hyponatremia in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients. We conducted a retrospective study of women diagnosed with EOC at Shengjing Hospital from 2011 to 2015. Preoperative serum sodium levels were measured and classified as normal (136-145 mmol/L) or hyponatremic (≤135 mmol/L) according to the average/most recent measurements of this biomarker. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard regression models were applied to determine the adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association of preoperative hyponatremia with progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). We identified 607 EOC patients meeting the inclusion criteria with a median age of 51 years (inter-quartile range: 47-59 years). The median follow-up duration was 3.1 years (inter-quartile range: 2.2-4.2). The recurrence and mortality rates were 56.8% (345/607) and 38.4% (233/607), respectively. Among the patients, 81 (13.3%) were observed as hyponatremic. Preoperative hyponatremia was associated with poorer PFS (HR=1.51; 95%CI=1.07-2.15) as well as OS (HR=1.47; 95%CI=1.03-2.11) after adjusting for potential confounders. Notably, results were in line with the main findings only when using the most recent serum sodium levels before treatment, with corresponding HRs of 1.58 (95%CI=1.12-2.23) for PFS and 1.45 (95%CI=1.02-2.07) for OS. Preoperative hyponatremia is an independent prognostic factor of EOC. Further studies are warranted to confirm our findings as well as to determine whether correction of preoperative hyponatremia may alter clinical outcomes in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies have suggested that electrolyte disorders might be a negative prognostic factor for some diseases. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to systematically evaluate the prognostic role of electrolyte disorders in patients with stage I to III colorectal cancer who received radical surgical resection. DESIGN This study was retrospectively performed. SETTINGS The study was conducted at a single tertiary care center. PATIENTS Patients with colorectal cancer who underwent radical resection in between April 2007 and April 2014 were included. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The Kaplan-Meier method was adopted to estimate the overall and disease-free survival with and without propensity score matching. RESULTS In total, our study recruited 5089 eligible patients. In prematching analysis, patients with hypochloremia showed both shorter overall survival (HR = 0.943 (95% CI, 0.908-0.980); p = 0.003) and disease-free survival (HR = 0.957 (95% CI, 0.933-0.981); p < 0.001) than those with normal serum chloride levels. In postmatching analysis, 770 patients from each group were compared, and the results further confirmed that hypochloremia was significantly associated with worse overall survival (HR = 0.646 (95% CI, 0.489-0.855); p = 0.002) and disease-free survival (HR = 0.782 (95% CI, 0.647-0.944); p = 0.01), with the hypochloremia group as a reference. LIMITATIONS The study was limited by its retrospective nature. CONCLUSIONS Hypochloremia diagnosed before treatment can independently prognosticate the overall and disease-free survival for patients with stage I to Ш colorectal cancer after radical resection. Intensive surveillance and management might improve the survival outcome for patients with hypochloremia. See Video Abstract at http://links.lww.com/DCR/A727.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative hyponatremia and thrombocytosis are associated with perioperative morbidity in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). The aim of the present study was to evaluate preoperative hyponatremia and thrombocytosis as prognostic parameters in patients with EOC. METHODS In a retrospective cohort study, serum levels of sodium and thrombocyte counts were evaluated in 498 patients with EOC. Data were extracted from the prospectively maintained database. Results were correlated with clinicopathological parameters and patient survival. RESULTS Mean (standard deviation) overall pretherapeutic serum sodium levels and thrombocyte counts in patients with EOC were 138.8 (2.9) mmol/l and 340.1 (122.6) × 103/µl, respectively. Hyponatremia (serum sodium levels ≤ 134 mmol/l) was found in 33 (6.7%) patients and thrombocytosis (thrombocytes ≥ 450/µl) in 88 (17.7%) patients. Serum sodium levels were associated with the presence or absence of residual tumor tissue after primary surgery. Thrombocyte counts were associated with Fédération Internationale de Gynécologie et d'Obstétrique (FIGO) tumor stage, presence/absence of residual tumor, histological grade and histological type. Patients with thrombocytosis presented with advanced tumor stage, a higher rate of postoperative residual tumor mass, higher tumor grade, and a higher rate of serous ovarian cancer. In a multivariate logistic regression analysis, only the established clinicopathological parameters but not serum sodium and thrombocyte count were independent predictors of patient overall survival. CONCLUSION Preoperative hyponatremia and thrombocytosis are not useful as additional independent prognostic parameters in patients with EOC.
