Abstract
Current management of esophageal carcinoma (EC) involves combining different modalities, offering the opportunity of personalized strategies. This is particularly enticing in the geriatric population, where tailoring treatment modalities remains key to achieve good outcomes in terms of both quality of life and survival. Primary outcomes of our review included (1) evidence on short-term outcomes following esophagectomy, and (2) evidence on long-term outcomes following esophagectomy. Secondary review questions compared outcomes of (1) neoadjuvant treatment versus upfront surgery for locally advanced esophageal carcinoma, (2) endoscopic submucosal dissection versus esophagectomy for early esophageal carcinoma, and (3) definitive radiation with or without chemotherapy versus surgery. Twenty-six articles were included in the review for the main review questions. Our systematic review underscores the need for comprehensive geriatric evaluations to guide decision-making. Despite concerns about perioperative risks, well-selected older patients can derive survival benefits from surgical intervention.

Abstract
BACKROUND AND PURPOSE A low Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) value, which reflects immune nutrition and inflammation around the tumor, is associated with an unfavorable prognosis, and it was aimed to reveal its prognostic value in metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC). METHODS In our retrospective cross-sectional study, patients with a diagnosis of metastatic colorectal disease without active infection, between January 2010 and December 2016 were included. The PNI values at the time of diagnosis were calculated according to the formula (10 × serum albumin (g/dL)) + (0.005 × total lymphocyte value). RESULTS The mean PNI value of 253 patients included in the study was 46.6. While 53.75% (n = 136) of the patients had a PNI value of 46.6 and above, 46.25% (n = 117) had a PNI value below 46.6. The overall survival (OS) of the group with a PNI of 46.6 and above was statistically significantly longer (53.06 months vs 38.80 months, p = 0.039). The PFS duration of the group with PNI below 46.6 was 25.66 months, while the PFS duration of the group with PNI above 46.6 was not reached (p = 0.265). CONCLUSION PNI is a simple and inexpensive index that evaluates the immunonutritional status, and it is a prognostic marker that can be easily used in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer as in other cancer types.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) in predicting the efficacy of first-line immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) combination therapy for metastatic or unresectable renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and associated patient prognosis. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted using data from 19 institutions. The GNRI was calculated using body mass index and serum albumin level, and patients were classified into two groups using the GNRI values, with 98 set as the cutoff point. RESULTS In all, 119 patients with clear cell RCC who received first-line drug therapy with ICIs were analyzed. Patients with GNRI ≥ 98 had significantly better overall survival (OS) (p = 0.008) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) (p = 0.001) rates than those with GNRI < 98; however, progression-free survival (PFS) did not differ significantly. Inverse probability of treatment weighting analysis showed that low GNRI scores were significantly associated with poor OS (p = 0.004) and CSS (p = 0.015). Multivariate analysis showed that the Karnofsky performance status (KPS) score was a better predictor of prognosis (OS; HR 5.17, p < 0.001, CSS; HR 4.82, p = 0.003) than GNRI (OS; HR 0.36, p = 0.066, CSS; HR 0.35, p = 0.072). In a subgroup analysis of patients with a good KPS and GNRI ≥ 98 vs < 98, the 2-year OS rates were 91.4% vs 66.9% (p = 0.068), 2-year CSS rates were 91.4% vs 70.1% (p = 0.073), and PFS rates were 39.7% vs 21.4 (p = 0.27), respectively. CONCLUSION The prognostic efficiency of GNRI was inferior to that of the KPS score at the initiation of the first-line ICI combination therapy for clear cell RCC.

Abstract
Objective In this investigation, we focused on the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI), a comprehensive metric that takes into account the patient's ideal weight, actual weight, and serum albumin levels to measure malnutrition. Our primary objective was to examine the predictive value of GNRI-defined malnutrition in determining the response to immunotherapy among cancer patients. Methods Relevant articles for this study were systematically searched in PubMed, the Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and Google Scholar up to July 2023. Our analysis evaluated overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), and disease control rate (DCR) as clinical outcomes. Results This analysis comprised a total of eleven articles encompassing 1,417 patients. The pooled results revealed that cancer patients with low GNRI levels exhibited shorter OS (HR: 2.64, 95% CI: 2.08-3.36, p < 0.001) and PFS (HR: 1.87, 95% CI: 1.46-2.41, p < 0.001), and lower ORR (OR: 0.46, 95% CI: 0.33-0.65, p < 0.001) and DCR (OR: 0.42, 95% CI: 0.29-0.61, p < 0.001). Sensitivity analyses confirmed that the above results were stable. Egger's and Begg's tests revealed that there was no publication bias in the above results. Conclusion Our results imply that the GNRI is a useful predictor of immunotherapy response in cancer patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The importance of a nutrition scoring system, including the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI), was reported as an objective tool widely used to assess nutritional status in patients with inflammatory disease, chronic heart failure, and chronic liver disease. However, studies on the relationship between GNRI and the prognosis in patients who have undergone initial hepatectomy have been limited. Thus, we conducted a multi-institutional cohort study to clarify the relationship between GNRI and long-term outcomes for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients after such a procedure. METHODS Data from 1,494 patients who underwent initial hepatectomy for HCC between 2009 and 2018 was retrospectively collected from a multi-institutional database. The patients were divided into two groups according to GNRI grade (cutoff: 92), and their clinicopathological characteristics and long-term results were compared. RESULTS Of the 1,494 patients, the low-risk group (≥ 92; N = 1,270) was defined as having a normal nutritional status. Meanwhile, low GNRI (< 92; N = 224) were divided into malnutrition as the high-risk group. Multivariate analysis identified seven prognostic factors of poor overall survival (higher tumor markers; α-fetoprotein (AFP) and des-γ-carboxy protein [DCP], higher ICG-R15 levels, larger tumor size, multiple tumors, vascular invasion, and lower GNRI and eight prognostic factors of high recurrence (HCV antibody positive, higher ICG-R15 levels, higher tumor markers such as AFP and DCP, greater bleeding, multiple tumors, vascular invasion, and lower GNRI). CONCLUSIONS In patients with HCC, preoperative GNRI predicts poorer overall survival and high recurrence.

Abstract
The prognostic value of the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) is not clear in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). This study was designed to analyze the GNRI in DLBCL patients and to investigate its prognostic value in DLBCL. The archive records of DLBCL patients between 2008 and 2020 at the Akdeniz University Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 206 patients with DLBCL were recruited and classified into two GNRI-based groups based on nutrition status. The GNRI cut off value was determined by ROC analysis. In the univariate Cox regression analysis for overall survival (OS), age, lactate dehydrogenase, B symptoms, infiltration of bone marrow, and the GNRI were determined as prognostic factors for mortality. The OS of patients with a GNRI ≤104.238 was significantly lower than that of patients with a GNRI >104.238 (p = 0.001). The progression-free survival (PFS) of patients with GNRI ≤104.238 was significantly lower compared to the patients with GNRI >104.238 (p = 0.010). Based on the results of the present study with a relatively large hospital-based cohort, the GNRI can be recommended for use as an independent prognostic marker for OS and PFS in patients with DLBCL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aging is accompanied by muscle loss. In older adults with cancer sarcopenia (OACS), systemic inflammation, reduced food intake, and reduced physical activity led to a poor prognosis. This study was to investigate the prognostic ability of the inflammatory Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI), which combines patient's inflammation, diet status, and physical activity status to predict overall survival of OACS. METHODS This prospective multi-center study enrolled 637 OACS, with an average age of 72.78 ± 5.98 years, of which 408 (64.1%) were males. We constructed the Inflammatory Functional Prognostic Index (IFPI) of OACS based on inflammatory GNRI scores, reduced food intake, and reduced physical activity. According to the IFPI, OACS was divided into high-, moderate-, and low-risk groups. Univariate and multivariate survival analyses analyzed the prognostic ability of the clinical parameters. RESULTS Compared with OACS with a high GNRI score, the 1-, 3-, and 5-year hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) of OACS with a low GNRI score was 1.816 (1.076-3.063), 1.678 (1.118-2.518), and 1.627 (1.101-2.407), respectively. This result was consistent with that of the calibration curve. The subgroup analysis showed that the low GNRI score had a significant positive relation with patients with gastrointestinal cancer (Pinteraction < 0.001). Notably, the survival analysis of IFPI showed that the mortality risk of moderate- and high-risk patients was 1.722-and 2.509-fold higher, respectively, than that of low-risk patients. CONCLUSION The GNRI score was a short-term and long-term inflammatory prognostic indicator for OACS. The IFPI score could improve patient survival prediction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the correlation between sarcopenia and inflammation- and nutrition-based markers in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Age, body mass index (BMI), neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), modified Glasgow prognostic score (mGPS), prognostic nutrition index (PNI), cachexia index (CIn), skeletal muscle index (SMI), controlling nutritional status (CONUT) score, and geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) were evaluated in 185 patients. Ideal cut-off values for the GNRI score were determined with the ROC curve analysis, and the patients were divided into two groups as low and high GNRI. Sarcopenia was diagnosed using CT scanning, the gold standard method. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard analyses were done based on the above-listed parameters to assess the correlation between sarcopenia and changes in immuno-nutrition and inflammatory response. Kaplan-Meier analysis was also done to evaluate survival. RESULTS Univariate analysis of the 185 patients based on the EGWSOP 2018 threshold values showed correlation between the presence of sarcopenia and male gender, diagnosed colon cancer, history of metastasectomy, BMI < 24, high mGPS score, PNI score ≥ 45, high CONUT score, and low GNRI score (p < 0.05). In multivariate analysis, low GNRI (HR: 2.40; 95% CI: 1.03-5.544; p = 0.040), and high-CONUT scores (HR: 2.01; 95% CI: 1.06-3.73; p = 0.029) were identified as independent prognostic factors for the presence of sarcopenia. CONCLUSION GNRI and CONUT scores are elementary and practical predictors for sarcopenia, a condition which is associated with poor outcomes in mCRC patients.

Abstract
Purpose: To explore the prognostic role of the pretreatment geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) in patients with esophageal cancer. Methods: Several electronic databases were searched from inception to January 27, 2022, for relevant studies. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were combined to assess the association between pretreatment GNRI and the prognosis of patients with esophageal cancer. The primary and secondary outcomes were overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS), respectively. Statistical analyses were performed using STATA software (version 12.0). Results: Fourteen retrospective studies involving 3981 patients were enrolled. The pooled results demonstrated that lower pretreatment GNRI was an independent prognostic risk factor for poorer OS (HR = 1.47, 95% CI: 1.33-1.63, P < 0.001) and PFS (HR = 1.69, 95% CI: 1.24-2.31, P = 0.001). Subgroup analysis based on pathological type (squamous cell carcinoma vs. esophageal cancer) and treatment (non-surgery vs. surgery) showed similar results. Conclusion: Pretreatment GNRI was significantly associated with prognosis of patients with esophageal cancer, and lower pretreatment GNRI predicted worse survival. However, more prospective high-quality studies are needed to verify these findings.

Abstract
Esophageal cancer (EC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide. Malnutrition often leads to poor prognosis of patients with EC. Geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) was reported as an objective nutrition-related risk index. We intend to comprehensively review evidence of GNRI in predicting EC prognosis. To explore the influence of GNRI on the long-term survival outcome of patients with EC, a meta-analysis was needed. We searched the Web of Science, Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Library databases. The association between prognosis of patients with EC and GNRI was evaluated by pooling hazard ratios (HRs) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The fixed model or random model method was chosen according to the heterogeneity among the studies. Totally, 11 studies with 1785 patients who met the inclusion criteria were eventually included in our meta-analysis. Comparing the lower level GNRI group and the higher level GNRI group, the pooled results showed that lower GNRI had a negative impact on overall survival (OS) (HR: 1.75, 95% CI: 1.45–2.10, P < 0.01) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) (HR: 1.77, 95% CI: 1.19–2.62, P < 0.01), indicating that lower GNRI significantly predicted poor OS. In conclusion, lower GNRI could predict the poor prognosis of patients with EC. Meanwhile, more well-designed randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are needed to confirm the findings.

Abstract
Many studies have reported that the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) and C-reactive protein to albumin ratio (CAR) may be associated with prognosis of esophageal cancer (EC); however, the results are inconsistent. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of preoperative GNRI and CAR on the prognosis of EC. PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases were searched. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to analyze the relationship between GNRI/CAR and prognosis. Publication bias was estimated using Begg's funnel plot asymmetry test and Egger's test. A total of 21 studies comprising 5,018 patients were included in the meta-analysis. A decreased GNRI was significantly associated with poorer overall survival (OS) (HR = 1.808, 95% CI: 1.489-2.196, P < 0.001) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) (HR = 1.769, 95% CI: 1.193-2.624, P = 0.005), and an increased CAR was significantly associated with lower OS (HR = 2.179, 95% CI: 1.587-2.992, P < 0.001), CSS (HR = 1.733, 95% CI: 1.333-2.253, P < 0.001), and recurrence-free survival (HR = 2.178, 95% CI: 1.328-3.573, P = 0.002). Thus, preoperative GNRI and CAR may be noninvasive and powerful tools for predicting survival outcomes in patients with EC.

Abstract
Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) is a valuable simplified tool in prediction of nutrition-related complications. The objective of this meta-analysis was to investigate the association of GNRI with survival outcomes in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Relevant studies were identified by searching PubMed and Embase databases from their inception to September 30, 2020. Observational studies that investigated the association of GNRI with survival outcomes in patients with ESCC were selected. The pooled adjusted hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for the lowest vs. the highest GNRI level was used to summarize the association. Eight retrospective studies involving 1460 ESCC patients were identified and included. For the lowest vs. the highest GNRI category, the pooled HR was 1.92 (95% CI 1.59-2.31) for overall survival and 1.77 (95% CI 1.19-2.62) for cancer-specific survival, respectively. Lower GNRI is significantly associated with reduced overall survival and cancer-specific survival among ESCC patients. Determination of nutritional status using GNRI has potential to improve survival stratification in patients with ESCC.Supplemental data for this article is available online at https://doi.org/10.1080/01635581.2022.2028865 .

Abstract
BACKGROUND Systemic inflammation and cachexia are associated with adverse clinical outcomes in elderly patients with cancer. The Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) is a simple and useful tool to assess these conditions, but its predictive ability for elderly patients with cancer cachexia (EPCC) is unknown. METHODS This multicentre cohort study included 746 EPCC with an average age of 72.00 ± 5.24 years, of whom 489 (65.5%) were male. The patients were divided into two groups (high GNRI group ≥91.959 vs. low GNRI group <91.959) according to the optimal cut-off value of the ROC curve. The calibration curves were performed to analyse the prognostic, predictive ability of GNRI. Comprehensive survival analyses were utilized to explore the relationship between GNRI and the overall survival (OS) of EPCC. Interaction analysis was used to investigate the comprehensive effects of low GNRI and subgroup parameters on the OS of EPCC. RESULTS In this study, a total of 2560 patients were diagnosed with cancer cachexia, including 746 cases of EPCC. During the 3.6 year median follow-up, we observed 403 deaths. The overall mortality rate for EPCC at 12 months was 34.3% (95% CI: 62.3% to 69.2%), and resulting in rate of 278 events per 1000 patient-years. The GNRI score of EPCC was significantly lower than those of young patients with cancer cachexia (P < 0.001). The 1, 3, and 5 year calibration curves showed that the GNRI score had good survival prediction in the OS of EPCC. The GNRI could predict the OS of EPCC, whether as a continuous variable or a categorical variable. Particularly, we also found that low GNRI score (<91.959) of EPCC had a worse prognosis than those with a high GNRI score (≥91.959, P = 0.001, HR = 1.728, 95% CI: 1.244-2.401). Consistent results were observed in the tumour subgroups of gastric cancer and colorectal cancer. Notably, similar results were observed in the sensitivity analysis. In the subgroup analysis, the low GNRI has a combined effect with age (<70 years) on poor OS of EPCC. The results of the prognostic risk model found that the lower the GNRI score, the greater the prognostic risk score, and the greater the risk of death in EPCC. CONCLUSIONS For the first time, this study found that the GNRI score can serve as an independent prognostic factor for the OS of EPCC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the performance of controlling nutritional status (CONUT) index, geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI), and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) scores in predicting the long-term prognosis of patients with non-ST-elevated myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS A total of 915 patients with NSTEMI (female: 48.4%; mean age: 73.1±9.0 years) who underwent PCI at Adana Numune Training and Research Hospital, Cardiology Clinic between January 2014 and January 2015 were included in this cross-sectional and retrospective study. CONUT, GNRI, and PNI scores were calculated based on the admission data derived from samples of peripheral venous blood. The mean follow-up duration was 64.5±15.4 months. RESULTS During follow-up (mean 64.5±15.4 months), 179 patients (19.6%) died. The mean GNRI and PNI scores were significantly lower in the nonsurvivor group; however, the median CONUT score was significantly higher in the nonsurvivor group compared with the survivor group. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses have shown that GNRI score has similar performance to the CONUT score and has better performance than PNI score in predicting 5-year mortality. The Kaplan-Meier curve analysis has shown that patients with lower PNI or GNRI had higher cumulative mortality than the patients with higher PNI or GNRI. Also, the patients with higher CONUT scores had higher cumulative mortality compared with those with lower scores. The multivariate analyses have shown that GNRI (HR: 0.973), PNI (HR: 0.967), CONUT score (HR: 1.527), and body mass index (BMI) (HR: 0.818) were independent predictors of the 5-year mortality in patients with NSTEMI. CONCLUSION In this study, we have shown that CONUT score, GNRI, and PNI values were associated with the long-term mortality in patients with NSTEMI who underwent PCI, and GNRI yielded similar results to CONUT score but was better than PNI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to examine the effectiveness of a modified-short hydration gemcitabine and cisplatin (m-shGC) regimen for patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC) and to assess the efficacy of a geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) with regard to prognosis. PATIENTS AND METHODS From January 2016 to July 2020, 68 patients with mUC underwent first-line m-shGC therapy with 70 mg/m2 cisplatin and 1,000 mg/m2 gemcitabine (days 1, 8, and 15), with 2,050 mL fluid replaced on the first day of each 28-day cycle. Prior to the start of treatment, the serum neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and levels of albumin and C-reactive protein (CRP) in serum, as well as body heights and weights were measured. Patients were grouped according to GNRI <92 (low) or ≥92 (high). The analysis of data was done retrospectively. RESULTS Median follow-up was found to be 12.9 (range 1.7-50.2) months and the objective response rate (ORR) was 54.4% after m-shGC treatment. The ORR was significantly different when high and low-GNRI groups were compared (ORR: 28.0 vs. 69.8% in low- vs. high-GNRI groups). Median overall survival (OS) was calculated as 8.6 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 5.4-21.3) and 34.5 (95% CI: 20.5-NA) months for low- and high-GNRI groups, respectively (p < 0.0001). Unlike for NLR and CRP, univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that low GNRI and visceral metastases were significant prognostic factors for short OS. CONCLUSIONS First-line m-shGC showed a survival benefit for mUC, with GNRI a useful prognostic biomarker.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) is a nutritional measure for predicting the risk of morbidity and mortality in hospitalized patients. We evaluated the utility of the GNRI to predict the short-term and long-term outcomes after curative surgery for gastric cancer (GC). PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients who underwent curative surgery for GC between 2008 and 2016 were reviewed (n=795). We classified patients into two groups according to the GNRI (high GNRI: low and no risk; low GNRI: major and moderate risk) and compared the utility of the GNRI. RESULTS A low GNRI was an independent prognostic factor for poorer overall survival (hazard ratio=2.34, p<0.001). The GNRI tended to be a better prognostic indicator in elderly patients with GC. Low GNRI was associated with postoperative complications (odds ratio=2.27, p=0.002), especially in patients aged ≥75 (odds ratio=2.26, p=0.042). CONCLUSION Low GNRI was associated with poor prognosis and occurrence of postoperative complications in patients with GC, especially in elderly patients.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the correlation between systemic inflammation markers and sarcopenia in elderly patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and their prognostic value. Materials and Methods The clinical data of 121 elderly patients with ESCC were collected. The skeletal muscle area at the level of the third lumbar vertebrae (L3) was measured by computed tomography (CT), and then the skeletal muscle index (SMI) was calculated. The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) were calculated according to laboratory standards. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards models were used to determine prognostic factors for overall survival (OS). Results A total of 121 elderly ESCC patients were enrolled. Among them, 65 patients had sarcopenia. NLR, PNI and GNRI are significantly related to sarcopenia. The OS of ESCC patients with sarcopenia and/or NLR>2.24 was significantly worse. Conclusion PNI, GNRI, NLR and sarcopenia were significantly related. Sarcopenia and NLR are independent prognostic factors for elderly ESCC, and when combined have better prognostic value.

The comparison of GNRI and other nutritional indexes on short-term survival in geriatric patients treated for respiratory failure. Aging Clin Exp Res 2021; 33:611-617. [PMID: 33130989 DOI: 10.1007/s40520-020-01740-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2020] [Accepted: 10/13/2020] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND There are several screening tools used in the detection of malnutrition to facilitate nutritional support and predict prognosis in the elderly. AIMS We aimed to compare the prognostic predictive value of geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) with other nutritional indices on 1 month survival in geriatric patients hospitalized for respiratory failure in intensive care unit (ICU). METHODS A total of 191 geriatric patients (> 65 years) admitted to a specialized chest hospital with respiratory failure between January 2018 and January 2019 were analyzed. Patients were classified into two category according to 30-day survival: Survivors and Non-survivors. Nutritional assesment was done via GNRI, OPNI, NRS 2002, Nutric Scores in ICU. RESULTS Using GNRI, 146 (76.3%) geriatric patients found to be at risk of malnutrition (GNRI score: ≤ 92). GNRI < 86.9 showed significantly higher 30-day mortality rate and patients with malnutrition risk were older, had significantly lower BMI, OPNI, and higher SOFA score. The Age, NRS 2002, Nutric and SOFA score had negative correlation with GNRI. Nutric score, prealbumin and GNRI were detected as significant independent risk factors of 30-day mortality. GNRI had higher sensitivity (76.7%) but lower specificity (57.1%) compared to Nutric score and OPNI for the prediction of 30-day hospital mortality. CONCLUSIONS Compared to others, Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) seems to be a good predictor of 30-day mortality and having a score of less than 86.9 increase the malnutrition risk in geriatric patients hospitalized for respiratory failure in ICU.

Abstract
Background: The goal of this study was to investigate the impact of different nutritional parameters in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) who underwent surgical resection. Methods: A total of 620 patients with ESCC who underwent esophagectomy were analyzed. A receiver operating characteristic curve was constructed to set the appropriate cutoff points for five nutritional parameters: serum albumin (SA), body mass index (BMI), geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI), prognostic nutritional index (PNI), and a new modified nutritional risk index (mNRI). Survival analyses were performed to calculate overall survival and investigate the independent prognostic factors. Results: The median preoperative BMI, SA, GNRI, PNI, and mNRI values were 20.90, 42.75, 102.95, 51.90, and 63.90, respectively. The corresponding optimal cutoff points were 18.75 for BMI, 43.05 for SA, 98.5 for GNRI, 51.45 for PNI, and 61.45 for mNRI. All nutritional parameters were significantly correlated with tumor length and pT category. Decreased nutritional parameters were significantly correlated with poor survival in univariate analysis; however, only the mNRI was an independent prognostic factor in multivariate analysis (P = 0.041). Conclusions: Nutritional parameters are convenient and valuable prognostic factors in ESCC patients who undergo surgical resection. The new mNRI parameter may be superior to the other nutritional parameters.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The goal of this study was to investigate the impact of mean corpuscular volume (MCV) in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) who underwent surgical resection. METHODS A total of 615 patients with ESCC who underwent esophagectomy were analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups according to the standard MCV: the high MCV group (>100 fl) and the low MCV group (≤100 fl). Survival analyses were performed to calculate overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) and investigate the independent prognostic factors. RESULTS Fifty-one patients (8.3%) were in the high MCV group, and the other 564 patients (91.7%) were defined as the low MCV group. MCV was significantly correlated with sex, habitual alcohol or tobacco use, tumor length, body mass index, and multiple primary malignancies (P < 0.05). Elevated MCV was significantly correlated with poor survival in univariate and multivariate analyses. However, in subgroup analyses, MCV was found to be correlated with survival only in patients with alcohol or tobacco consumption and not in patients without alcohol or tobacco consumption. CONCLUSIONS Pretreatment MCV was correlated with survival in ESCC patients after esophagectomy. However, its prognostic value might only exist in patients with alcohol or tobacco consumption.

Abstract
Background Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a geriatric cancer. However, older adult patients are frequently underrepresented in large clinical trials. Aims The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of the EXTREME regimen (platinum + fluorouracil + cetuximab) in older and younger adult patients with HNSCC. Methods and results Patients with recurrent or metastatic HNSCC treated with the EXTREME regimen were retrospectively analyzed. We compare the efficacy and safety in older (aged ≥70 years) younger (aged <70 years) adult patients. Of the 86 patients examined in this study, 21 (24.4%) were older adults. There was no difference in overall response rate (46.9% vs 38.5%, P = .76), median progression‐free survival [5.7 months vs 5.8 months, hazard ratio (HR) 0.88, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.52‐1.51, P = .66] and overall survival (OS) (14.6 months vs 15.2 months, HR 0.79, 95% CI 0.43‐1.43, P = .44) in younger vs older patients. There was also no difference in the incidence of grade 3/4 adverse events between groups. The exploratory analysis for geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) showed the association with lower GNRI (≤98) and poor OS in older adult patients (37.7 months vs 7.0 months, HR 0.53, 95% CI 0.31‐0.89, P = .002). Conclusions The EXTREME regimen with optimal dose modification is safe and effective for both older and younger adult patients with HNSCC. The GNRI can be an indicator to select the older adult patients who can get benefit from the EXTREME regimen.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) on the prognosis of patients with gastrointestinal malignancy remains unclear. The aim of our study was to systematically explore the value of the GNRI in evaluating postoperative complications and long-term outcomes in gastrointestinal malignancy. METHODS A systematic literature search was conducted using electronic databases to report the impact of the GNRI on postoperative complications and long-term outcomes of patients with gastrointestinal malignancies as of August 2020. The hazard ratio (HR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI) was used to evaluate the impact of the GNRI on long-term outcomes. The risk ratio (RR) with 95% CI was used to assess the impact of the GNRI on postoperative complications. RESULT A total of nine studies with 2,153 patients were enrolled in our meta-analysis. The results suggested that a low GNRI was correlated with poor overall survival of patients with gastrointestinal malignancy (HR = 1.94, 95% CI 1.65-2.28, p < 0.001). Patients with a low GNRI had a higher risk of complications than patients with a high GNRI (OR = 2.19, 95% CI 1.57-3.05, p < 0.001). In addition, patients with a low GNRI had shorter relapse-free survival (HR = 2.45, 95% CI 1.50-4.00, p < 0.001) and disease-free survival (HR = 1.84, 95% CI 1.23-2.76, p = 0.003) than those with a high GNRI. However, the GNRI was not an independent factor affecting cancer-specific survival (HR = 1.60, 95% CI 0.91-2.82, p = 0.101). CONCLUSION Based on existing evidence, the GNRI was a valuable predictor of complications and long-term outcomes in patients with gastrointestinal malignancy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previous studies have investigated the pretreatment prognostic nutritional index (PNI) as a prognostic factor in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC); however, the results remained inconsistent. We aimed to assess the prognostic value of PNI in patients with NPC through conducting meta-analysis. Methods: Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated for low PNI of overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), loco-regional recurrence-free survival (LRFS), and cancer-specific survival (CSS). Results: Totally, eight studies involving 4299 patients were included in this meta-analysis. A low pretreatment PNI was associated with poor OS (HR = 1.86, 95% CI = 1.55-2.33, P < 0.001), DMFS (HR = 2.03, 95% CI = 1.69-2.44, P < 0.001), PFS (HR = 1.57, 95% CI = 1.31-1.90, P < 0.001), and CSS (HR = 2.29, 95% CI = 1.54-3.42, P < 0.001). The subgroup analysis showed that low PNI remained a significant factor for poor OS, DMFS, and PFS irrespective of treatment, country, and cutoff value of PNI. In addition, low PNI was correlated to female gender (OR = 1.35, 95% CI = 1.12-1.62, P = 0.002), older age (OR = 1.75, 95% CI = 1.17-2.62, P = 0.007), and T3-T4 stage (OR = 1.27, 95% CI = 1.06-1.53, P = 0.011). Conclusions: A low PNI was associated with poor survival outcomes in patients with NPC. Moreover, PNI could serve as an index to help guide clinical management for older patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We evaluated the prognostic efficacy of the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) in second-line pembrolizumab (PEM) therapy for patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC). PATIENTS AND METHODS From January 2018 to October 2019, 52 mUC patients, treated previously with platinum-based chemotherapy, underwent second-line PEM therapy. Peripheral blood parameters were measured at the start of treatment: serum neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), serum albumin, serum C-reactive protein (CRP), and body height and weight. PEM was intravenously administered (200 mg every 3 weeks). The patients were organized into two groups based on their GNRI (<92 [low GNRI] and ≥92 [high GNRI]), and the data were retrospectively analyzed. Adverse events (AEs) were evaluated and imaging studies assessed for all patients. Analyses of survival and recurrence were performed using Kaplan-Meier curves. Potential prognostic factors affecting cancer-specific survival (CSS) were assessed by univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses. RESULTS patients' baseline characteristics, except for their BMI and objective response rate, did not significantly differ between the two groups. The median total number of cycles of PEM therapy was significantly higher for the high-GNRI group (n [range]: 6 [2-20] vs. 3 [1-6]). The median CSS with second-line PEM therapy was 3.6 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.5-6.1) and 11.8 months (95% CI: 6.2-NA) in the low-GNRI and the high-GNRI group (p < 0.01), respectively. Significant differences in CSS between the low- and high-CRP or -NRL groups were not found. Multivariate Cox proportional-hazards regression analysis revealed that a poor Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status, visceral metastasis, and a low GNRI were significant prognostic factors for short CSS (95% CI: 1.62-6.10, HR: 3.14; 95% CI: 1.13-8.11, HR: 3.03; 95% CI: 1.32-8.02, HR: 3.25, respectively). Of the AEs, fatigue showed a significantly higher incidence in the low-GNRI group. CONCLUSIONS For mUC patients receiving second-line PEM therapy, the GNRI is a useful predictive biomarker for survival outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The survival impact of the geriatric nutrition risk index (GNRI) has yet to be investigated in patients undergoing gastric carcinoma (GC) surgery. METHODS In total, 1166 GC patients who underwent radical gastrectomy were retrospectively reviewed. The predictive and discrimination abilities for overall survival (OS) were compared among GNRI, nutrition indices, and systemic inflammatory markers. Patients were dichotomized by GNRI (GNRI <98, low; GNRI ≥98, high), and the impacts of GNRI on OS and cancer-specific survival (CSS) were evaluated using Cox hazards analysis. RESULTS GNRI showed superior discrimination and predictive ability for OS as compared with other indices. There were 447 (38.3%) and 719 (61.7%) patients in the low- and high-GNRI groups, respectively. Patients with low GNRI were older and had a higher pStage III disease rate than those with high GNRI (P < .001). OS curves were significantly stratified by GNRI in all patients (P < .001) and those with pStage I (P < .001), II (P < .001), and III (P = .02) disease. Multivariate analysis showed low GNRI to be independently associated with poor OS (hazard ratio [HR], 2.15; 95% CI, 1.612.87; P < .001). Furthermore, low GNRI was an independent predictor of poor CSS (HR, 1.61; 95% CI, 1.072.44; P = .02), as were total gastrectomy (P < .001) and pStage III disease (P < .001). Patients who had low GNRI and underwent total gastrectomy showed quite poor 5-year OS (54.8%). CONCLUSION GNRI is useful for predicting survival and oncological outcomes in GC patients.

Abstract
The geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) is associated with mortality in several malignancies. We retrospectively analyzed whether the GNRI can predict long-term outcomes in 191 patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) after curative esophagectomies by evaluating their cancer-specific survival (CSS). In multivariate analyses, serum albumin (hazard ratio [HR], 2.498; p = 0.0043), GNRI (HR, 1.941; p = 0.0181), pathological tumor-node-metastasis (pTNM) stage (HR, 3.884; p < 0.0001), and tumor differentiation (HR, 2.307; p = 0.0066) were independent prognostic factors for CSS. In pTNM stage I, multivariate analysis identified C-reactive protein (HR, 7.172; p = 0.0483) and GNRI (HR, 5.579; p = 0.0291) as independent prognostic factors for CSS. In univariate analyses in pTNM stages II and III, only low GNRI (p = 0.0095) and low serum albumin levels (p = 0.0119), respectively, were significantly associated with worse CSS. In patients with low GNRI, CSS was significantly worse than in those with normal GNRI (p = 0.0011), especially in pTNM stages I (p = 0.0044) and II (p = 0.0036) groups, but not in stage III group (p = 0.5099). Preoperative GNRI may sort patients into low- or high-risk groups for shorter CSS, especially in those with pTNM stage I and II ESCC.

The decrease of BMI and albumin levels influences the rate of anastomotic leaks in patients following reconstruction after emergency diverting esophagectomy. Esophagus 2020; 17:183-189. [PMID: 31781910 DOI: 10.1007/s10388-019-00703-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2019] [Accepted: 11/20/2019] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Diverting esophagectomies in cases of benign esophageal perforations remain rare but potentially life saving procedures. Usually, an esophagostoma and a feeding jejunostomy or gastrostomy are created, and patients are given time to recover from the emergency situation. However, little is known about morbidity and mortality as well as the optimal timing for a staged reconstruction. METHODS Patients with benign esophageal perforations were selected from our retrospective database. Perforations in esophageal malignancies were excluded to avoid bias on patients' general outcome. Clinical parameters and especially, the influence of the nutritional status indicated by the BMI (Body Mass Index) as well as serum albumin levels (g/l) were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 24 patients with diverting esophagectomies were identified. Of these, 13 (54.2%) patients received a staged reconstruction after a median of 143.0 days. Patients presenting for their staged reconstruction demonstrated a significantly decreased level of their BMI (p = 0.026) as compared to their prior hospitalization. Interestingly, the relative decrease of BMI (8.5 kg/m2 vs. 4.3 kg/m2) and albumin levels (6.5 g/l vs. 0.0 g/l) was significantly different in patients with or without anastomotic leaks between both surgeries (p = 0.021; p = 0.034, respectively). In addition, higher rates of overall complications were associated with an increased rate of malnutrition. CONCLUSIONS The relative amount of malnutrition indicated by BMI or serum albumin levels influences the rate of anastomotic leaks and general complications in patients with staged reconstruction after diverting esophagectomy for non-malignant esophageal perforations. Hence, reconstruction should be done as fast as possible to reduce the amount of malnutrition and a frequent assessment of the nutritional status must be done during recovery from the emergency surgery.

Abstract
Cancer occurs most frequently in patients aged 65 and older. With the increasing age of the world's population, there will be a significant increase in cancer diagnoses in older adults. Aging imposes a wide variety of physiological responses, comorbidities, and ailments, but older patients are less represented in clinical studies. Specific needs of older patients with cancer often go under-recognized and consequently unmet. In this review, common diagnoses that can affect the outcomes of this population, including frailty, malnutrition, and delirium, are discussed. Areas that need further research to improve the care of geriatric cancer patients, particularly in the hospital settings, are also identified.

Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index Predicts Adverse Outcomes in Human Malignancy: A Meta-Analysis. DISEASE MARKERS 2019; 2019:4796598. [PMID: 31827634 PMCID: PMC6885788 DOI: 10.1155/2019/4796598] [Citation(s) in RCA: 47] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2019] [Accepted: 09/28/2019] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
Background Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) has been widely used to assess the nutritional status in a variety of human pathological conditions, but the prognostic value of the GNRI in malignancies has not been evinced. Methods Relevant studies updated on Jul 27, 2019, were retrieved in available databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane library, Chinese CNKI, and Chinese Wan-fang. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were extracted and pooled by using STATA 14. Results A total of 15 studies involving 8,046 subjects were included in this meta-analysis. Meta-analysis results evinced that low GNRI was associated with poor OS (HR = 1.95, 95% CI: 1.49-2.56, p ≤ 0.001), poor CSS (HR = 1.81, 95% CI: 1.49-2.19, p ≤ 0.001), poor DFS (HR = 1.67, 95% CI: 1.28-2.17, p ≤ 0.001), and poor PFS (HR = 1.68, 95% CI: 1.28-2.21, p ≤ 0.001), and the correlation of GNRI with OS was not changed when stratified by possible confounding factors, suggesting that malignancy patients with low GNRI would suffer from reduced survival rate and increased recurrence rate. Moreover, low GNRI was also associated with postoperative complications in malignancies. Conclusions In summary, GNRI is associated poor prognosis in human malignancies, and GNRI should be used as a predictive indicator of adverse outcomes during malignancy treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinical impact of the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) in patients with extensive-stage disease small cell lung cancer (ED-SCLC) have not previously been reported. METHODS This study analyzed 352 patients enrolled in a previous randomized phase III trial comparing the efficacy of irinotecan plus cisplatin with that of etoposide plus cisplatin as the first-line therapy for ED-SCLC. GNRI values were calculated using serum albumin levels and actual and ideal bodyweights. Patients with a GNRI > 98, 92-98, and <92 were grouped into no, low, and moderate/major risk groups, respectively. RESULTS The objective response rates were 63.2%, 52.6%, and 49.2% in the no, low, and moderate/major risk groups, respectively (P = 0.024). The median progression-free survival (PFS) was shorter in patients with a lower GNRI than in those with a higher GNRI (no vs. low vs. moderate/major risk group; 6.5 vs. 5.8 vs. 5.9 months, respectively; P = 0.028). There were significant differences in median overall survival (OS) according to GNRI (no vs. low vs. moderate/major risk group; 13.2 vs. 10.3 vs. 8.4 months, respectively; P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed that being in the moderate/major risk group was an independent poor prognostic factor for PFS (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.300, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.012-1.670; P = 0.040) and OS (HR: 1.539; 95% CI: 1.069-2.216; P = 0.020). CONCLUSIONS This prospective study shows that a low GNRI value was associated with a poor prognosis, and it supports the relationship between systemic inflammation, nutritional status, and clinical outcomes in patients with ED-SCLC.Key points SIGNIFICANT FINDINGS OF THE STUDY: The lower GNRI group had a low response rate to chemotherapy for ED-SCLC. The HRs for PFS and OS were 1.300 and 1.539 in the patients with GNRI < 92. WHAT THIS STUDY ADDS Low GNRI is associated with poor prognosis in ED-SCLC.

Abstract
AIM Patients awaiting abdominal surgery are often malnourished, which puts them at a high risk of postoperative complications. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of preoperative nutritional status using the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) on postoperative complications and the course of recovery for patients undergoing abdominal surgery. METHODS In this prospective multicenter cohort study, we enrolled patients awaiting abdominal surgery from November 2015 to December 2017. The characteristics of patients and postoperative complications were compared between participants (median age 71 years; interquartile range 66-78 years) with low GNRI (<98) values and high GNRI (≥98) values. Multivariate logistic regression was carried out to identify postoperative complications-related factors. RESULTS A total of 366 patients who underwent abdominal surgery were assessed. Patients in the low GNRI group had a significantly higher rate of postoperative complications (P = 0.01), and longer length of hospital stay compared with those in the high GNRI group (P < 0.01). Using multivariate analysis, low GNRI was found to be independently associated with postoperative complications (OR 2.50; P = 0.02) and activities of daily living on postoperative day 7 (OR 1.39; P = 0.03). Comorbidities, handgrip force for postoperative complications, age, preoperative chemotherapy and activities of daily living on postoperative day 7 were not independently associated. CONCLUSIONS Malnutrition indicated by the GNRI might be predictive of postoperative complications after abdominal surgery and the delay of postoperative course.

Abstract
Clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of esophageal cancer (EC) patients with decreased prognostic nutritional index (PNI) have not been well investigated. So, we conducted this meta‐analysis. We performed comprehensive research in PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases. The effect size was hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) for overall survival (OS) and cancer‐specific survival (CSS). The pooled odds ratio (OR) with 95% CI were used to assess the association between PNI and clinicopathological features. A total of 3,425 EC patients were included in the present meta‐analysis. Male patients, advanced age, higher tumor stage, and lymph node metastases were associated with reduced PNI level (OR = 1.40, 95% CI: 1.10‐1.79; OR = 1.35, 95% CI: 1.10‐1.66; OR = 2.37, 95% CI: 1.91‐2.94; OR = 1.63, 95% CI: 1.04‐2.56). And, the EC patients with decreased PNI held a worse OS and CSS compared with those who carried a higher PNI (HR = 1.29, 95% CI: 1.10‐1.50; HR = 2.53, 95% CI: 1.15‐5.57). This meta‐analysis demonstrated PNI level was associated with tumor stage and lymph nodes metastases and was an independent prognostic factor in EC.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to explore whether the preoperative prognostic nutritional index (PNI) could be an indicator of prognostic outcomes in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. METHODS A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted using the PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases. All original comparative studies published in English that were related to a high PNI versus a low PNI in CRC patients were included. RESULTS A total of 10 studies involving 6372 patients were included in our meta-analysis. Our overall analysis indicated that the low-PNI group had a significantly reduced overall survival (OS) (HR = 1.87, 95% CI = 1.45-2.42, P < 0.01), cancer-specific survival (HR = 1.53, 95% CI = 1.07-2.19, P = 0.02), and disease-free survival (HR = 1.67, 95% CI = 1.23-2.26, P < 0.01) compared with the high-PNI group. Furthermore, our subgroup results indicated that a high PNI could be a significant indicator of improved OS in TNM stage II (HR = 1.93, 95% CI = 1.29-2.90, P < 0.01) and III (HR = 1.71, 95% CI = 1.25-2.34, P < 0.01), and a similar trend in TNM stage I or IV could also be observed though without statistical significance. Regarding postoperative complications, our pooled results indicated that the low-PNI group had a significantly increased incidence of total and severe postoperative complications. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicated that CRC patients with a preoperative high PNI had a significantly improved OS. However, almost only Asian CRC patients were included based on current issue.
