You K, Han H. Application of ERAS in older patients with gastric cancer. Medicine (Baltimore) 2024; 103:e38409. [PMID: 39259095 PMCID: PMC11142792 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000038409] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2024] [Revised: 04/12/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 09/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness and feasibility of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in older gastric cancer (GC) patients by observing the changes in postoperative intestinal function recovery, nutritional indicators, and inflammatory markers following the surgery. METHODS A total of 61 older GC patients who underwent laparoscopic radical gastrectomy were selected as the subjects of this study. They were divided into an ERAS group (n = 28) and a conventional control group (n = 33) based on the different management modes during the perioperative period. General data, inflammatory response indicators, nutritional indicators, and perioperative indicators of the 2 groups were collected and compared. The changes in relevant indicators were analyzed, and the underlying reasons for these changes were explored. RESULTS There were no significant differences in general data and preoperative indicators between the 2 groups (P > .05). In the ERAS group, the inflammatory markers decreased more rapidly, and the nutritional indicators recovered more quickly after surgery. The differences between the 2 groups were statistically significant on the 5th and 7th postoperative days (P < .05). The ERAS group had significantly shorter postoperative hospital stay (10.07 ± 1.41 vs 13.04 ± 3.81), shorter time to first flatus (3.70 ± 0.72 vs 4.18 ± 1.17), shorter drainage tube retention time (8.96 ± 1.53 vs 10.93 ± 3.36), and shorter nasogastric tube retention time (3.36 ± 1.72 vs 6.14 ± 3.99) compared to the control group (P < .05). CONCLUSION The application of the ERAS program in older GC patients is effective and feasible, and significantly contributes to faster postoperative recovery in older patients.

Gianotti L, Nespoli L, Sandini M. Pharmaconutrition: Which substrates? EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY 2024; 50:106798.

Abstract
With the term "pharmaconutrition" or "immunonutrition" is intended the use of specific nutritional substrates having the ability of modulating specific mechanisms involved in several immune and inflammatory pathways. To achieve these goals, these substrates have to be administered with over physiologic dose. Glutamine and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, used as single substrate, did not show clear clinical advantages on solid endpoints such as postoperative complications. Despite several multiple substrate enteral feeds are available on the market, very few of them have been tested in randomized clinical trial to prove efficacy. The most extensive investigated formulation is a combination of arginine, omega-3 fatty acids, ribonucleic acid with or without glutamine. Several meta-analyses of randomized clinical trials have been conducted to compare the effects of enteral immunonutrition with control diets on post-surgical morbidity. The results consistently showed that the use of enteral multiple substrate formulas significantly reduced infectious complications and duration of hospitalization. In a more contemporary view, pharmaconutrition should be tested more accurately in the contest of enhanced recovery programs, during neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and in the prehabilitation setting.

Abstract
Introduction Objective: to assess the effectiveness of immunonutrition (IN) compared to standard nutritional formulas in patients undergoing gastric cancer surgery. Material and methods: this is a real-life, observational retrospective cohort study. It included 134 patients, all of whom underwent gastrectomy at Montecelo Hospital between December 2019 and December 2022. Group A (N = 79 patients) received standard nutrition, and Group B (N = 55 patients) received formulas containing arginine, nucleotides, omega-3 fatty acids, and extra virgin olive oil. This protocol was carried out both pre and postoperatively for an average period of 10 days. The study evaluated hospital stay, the need for parenteral nutrition (PN), postoperative complications, as well as anthropometric and laboratory variables. Statistical analyses were performed using Stata 16.1.® Results: in the IN group compared to the standard nutrition group, the hospital stay was reduced by 34 % (p < 0.001). The number of patients requiring PN decreased by 21.1 % (p = 0.022), and its duration also decreased by 33.2 % (p < 0.001). The risk of infectious complications was lower with IN, specifically 70.1 % less (p < 0.001). As for other postoperative complications, IN reduced the risk of intestinal obstruction by 84 % (p < 0.002), suture dehiscence by 90.9 % (p < 0.001), blood transfusion by 99.8 % (p < 0.001), pleural effusion by 90.9 % (p = 0.021), acute renal failure by 84.02 % (p = 0.047), and surgical re-intervention by 69.93 % (p < 0.011). In the IN group, there was less weight loss (p = 0.048) and a smaller decrease in postoperative albumin (p = 0.005) and cholesterol (p < 0.001). Conclusion: immunonutrition reduces postoperative complications, decreases hospital stay, and optimizes nutritional outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Enteral immunonutrition is a nutritional intervention that has been studied in postoperative patients with gastric cancer, but its effectiveness is controversial. This study aimed to investigate the effects of enteral immunonutrition and enteral nutrition on immune function in patients who undergo gastric cancer surgery. METHODS We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis. A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, Web of Knowledge, and ClinicalTrials.gov from the inception of the review until 10 March 2023. Twelve studies were included for qualitative and quantitative analyses. RESULTS We studied 1124 patients, including 565 patients in the enteral immunonutrition group and 559 in the enteral nutrition (controls) group. All included randomized, controlled trials were high quality. CD4+ levels, lymphocytes, transferrin concentrations, and systemic inflammatory response syndrome were not significantly different between the enteral immunonutrition and enteral nutrition groups. However, CD8+, immunoglobulins G and M, and proalbumin concentrations, CD4+/CD8+, and infectious complications were significantly higher in the enteral immunonutrition group than in the enteral nutrition group. A sensitivity analysis showed consistent results after excluding each study. Begg's test showed no publication bias. CONCLUSIONS Enteral immunonutrition is an effective nutritional intervention that improves immune function in patients who have undergone gastric cancer surgery.

A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials comparing enteral immunonutrition (EIN) and standard enteral nutrition regarding biochemical, immunological, and clinical outcomes in gastrectomy patients with gastric cancer and investigating evidence networks for EIN formulae. Wideochir Inne Tech Maloinwazyjne 2023; 18:588-602. [PMID: 38239588 PMCID: PMC10793151 DOI: 10.5114/wiitm.2023.133439] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2023] [Accepted: 10/05/2023] [Indexed: 01/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction For patients with gastric cancer who have undergone gastrectomy, recent research has shown that enteral immunonutrition (EIN) is more successful than enteral nutrition (EN) at boosting host immunity and, in turn, improving prognosis. The claimed outcomes, however, are inconsistent. Aim This meta-analysis examines how EIN affects biochemical, immunological, and clinical outcomes for gastrectomy (GC) patients following gastrectomy and EIN formulae evidence networks. Material and methods A comprehensive search of the Medline, EMBASE, Scopus, and Cochrane Library databases identified English-language peer-reviewed journal papers. The odds ratio (OR) and standard mean difference (SMD) were calculated, along with their 95% confidence intervals. The heterogeneity was assessed using Cochrane Q and I2 statistics and the appropriate p-value. The analysis used RevMan 5.3. Results This meta-analysis included 10 RCTs involving 1409 GC patients, 714 of whom were assigned to EIN and 695 to EN. After EIN treatment, serum proalbumin, serum transferrin, lymphocyte count, and CD4+/CD8+ ratio had statistically significant standardised mean differences (SMDs) of 2.39, 2.39, 1.34, and 0.72, respectively. EIN reduces postoperative infectious complications with an OR of 0.63 (95% CI: 0.41-0.77) for infections, an OR of 0.63 for complications, and an SMD of -1.05 for systemic inflammations. A network diagram with high-quality data and a well-defined network design with consistent and accurate connection shows that EIN can improve serum protein levels, immunological parameters, and post-operative problems. Conclusions The use of EIN has been shown to enhance cellular immunity, regulate inflammatory response, and decrease postoperative complications in GC patients who underwent major GI surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE Perioperative surgical stress and systemic inflammation resulting from complex interactions between cancer and the host play an important role in cancer progression. This retrospective study compared the prognostic impact of various perioperative cumulative inflammation- and nutrition-based markers in patients with gastric cancer (GC). METHODS This study included 301 patients with a histopathological diagnosis of gastric adenocarcinoma who underwent curative surgery. Perioperative cumulative markers were calculated using the newly developed trapezoidal area method. RESULTS The cumulative prognostic nutritional index (cum-PNI) had the highest area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for predicting the overall survival (OS) as well as the relapse-free survival (RFS). The cum-PNI was significantly correlated with tumor-related factors, including tumor size, depth of invasion, lymph node metastasis, lymphatic involvement, vascular involvement, and TNM stage classification. The cum-PNI was also significantly correlated with surgical factors, including surgical approach, gastrectomy, lymphadenectomy, intraoperative blood loss, and postoperative complications. Furthermore, the OS and RFS were poorer in patients with a low cum-PNI (< 236.3) than in those with a high cum-PNI (> 236.3). A multivariate analysis indicated that a low cum-PNI was an independent prognostic indicator in patients with GC. CONCLUSIONS The cum-PNI might be useful for predicting the prognosis and guiding the perioperative management of patients with GC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of immune nutrients in the treatment of severe pancreatitis remains controversial. No study has yet compared the effects of different immune nutrients on patients with severe acute pancreatitis. This study aimed to compare the effects of different immune nutrients in treating severe acute pancreatitis through a network meta-analysis. METHODS PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Scopus were used to search randomized controlled trials from the inception to July 2023. Information was collected from patients with severe acute pancreatitis and their intervention methods, which included the administration of glutamine, omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, arginine, and nucleotides. The evaluated outcomes included mortality, infection, the length of the hospital stay (LOH), the length of intensive care unit stay (LOI), and C-reactive protein (CRP). Risk ratio (95% confidence interval [CI]) and mean difference (MD) (95% CI) were calculated using a network meta-analysis random-effects model. The ranking between interventions was calculated using the surface under the cumulative ranking curve. The Cochrane Risk of Bias tool 2 was used to assess the risk of bias. The sources of heterogeneity were assessed using sensitivity analysis and network meta-regression. The credibility of the evidence was assessed using grading of recommendations assessment, development, and evaluation. RESULTS Nineteen studies with 1035 patients were included in this network meta-analysis. Parenteral glutamine was more effective in reducing mortality, infection, LOH, and LOI, as well as in the downregulation of CRP compared to the control. Risk ratio (95%CI) or MD (95%CI) were 0.38 (0.16, 0.90), 0.35 (0.14, 0.90), -3.32 (-4.90, -1.75), -2.53 (-4.46, -0.61), and -17.78 (-28.77, -6.78), respectively. Parenteral omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids was more effective in reducing LOH and LOI, as well as in the downregulation of CRP. MD (95%CI) were -6.77 (-11.40, -2.14), -5.19 (-7.80, -2.57), and -26.20 (-39.71, -12.68), respectively. Immune nutrients in the other groups did not exert any effect compared to the control regarding all the outcomes. Parenteral glutamine ranked best in reducing infections. Parenteral omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids ranked best in reducing mortality, LOH, and LOI, as well as in the downregulation of CRP. CONCLUSION Some immune nutrients were beneficial for patients with severe acute pancreatitis. Parenteral administration could be better than enteral administration.

Abstract
The effect of probiotics on postoperative infectious complications and nutritional status in patients with gastric cancer is still controversial, and a comprehensive search and analysis of the current relevant evidence is necessary. Our study aimed to define the effects of probiotics on surgical outcomes in gastric cancer patients undergoing surgery. Up to June 20, 2023, Embase, PubMed, Web of Science, and Cochrane databases were searched for randomized controlled trials of probiotics in gastric cancer patients undergoing surgery. Relative risk (RR) or mean difference (MD) was used to calculate the effect sizes using RevMan 5.3. A total of nine studies reporting on 861 participants were included. Perioperative supplementation with probiotics did not improve weight loss (MD 0.73 kg; 95% CI: -0.56, 2.02) or serum prealbumin levels (MD 9.48 mg/L 95% CI: -3.43, 22.40), but did reduce the incidence of postoperative infectious complications (RR 0.46, 95% CI 0.28, 0.77), shorten the time to first exhaust (MD -11.27 h; 95% CI: -16.83, -5.70), the time to first defecation (MD -15.71 h; 95% CI: -25.62, -5.79), and the length of hospital stay (MD -0.94 days; 95% CI: -1.33, -0.55), and increase serum albumin levels (MD 0.73 g/L; 95% CI: 0.01, 1.46) in gastric cancer patients undergoing surgery. Probiotics are effective in preventing postoperative infectious complications, promoting postoperative recovery, and improving nutritional status in gastric cancer patients undergoing surgery. Our study highlights the importance of probiotics for healthcare systems and offers a potential strategy to improve the prognosis and reduce the medical burden of gastric cancer patients undergoing surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Perioperative treatment is currently the gold standard approach in Europe for locally advanced gastric cancer (GC). Unfortunately, the phenomenon of patients dropping out of treatment has been frequently observed. The primary aims of this study were to verify if routine blood parameters, inflammatory response markers, sarcopenia, and the depletion of adipose tissues were associated with compliance to neoadjuvant/perioperative chemotherapy. METHODS AND STUDY DESIGN Blood samples were considered before the first and second cycles of chemotherapy. Sarcopenia and adipose indices were calculated with a CT scan before starting chemotherapy and before surgery. Odds ratios (OR) from univariable and multivariable models were calculated with a 95% confidence interval (95% CI). RESULTS A total of 84 patients with locally advanced GC were identified between September 2010 and January 2021. Forty-four patients (52.4%) did not complete the treatment according to the number of cycles planned/performed. Eight patients (9.5%) decided to suspend chemotherapy, seven patients (8.3%) discontinued because of clinical decisions, fourteen patients (16.7%) discontinued because of toxicity and fifteen patients (17.9%) discontinued for miscellaneous causes. Seventy-nine (94%) out of eighty-four patients underwent gastrectomy, with four patients having surgical complications, which led to a suspension of treatment. Sarcopenia was present in 38 patients (50.7%) before chemotherapy began, while it was present in 47 patients (60%) at the CT scan before the gastrectomy. At the univariable analysis, patients with basal platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) ≥ 152 (p = 0.017) and a second value of PLR ≥ 131 (p = 0.007) were more frequently associated with an interruption of chemotherapy. Patients with increased PLR (p = 0.034) compared to the cut-off were associated with an interruption of chemotherapy, while patients with increased monocytes between the first and second cycles were associated with a lower risk of treatment interruption (p = 0.006); patients who underwent 5-fluorouracil plus cisplatin or oxaliplatin had a higher risk of interruption (p = 0.016) compared to patients who underwent a 5-fluorouracil plus leucovorin, oxaliplatin and docetaxel (FLOT) regimen. The multivariable analysis showed a higher risk of interruption for patients who had higher values of PLR compared to the identified cut-off both at pretreatment and second-cycle evaluation (OR: 5.03; 95% CI: 1.34-18.89; p = 0.017) as well as for patients who had a lower PLR than the identified cut-off at pretreatment evaluation and had a higher PLR value than the cut-off at the second cycle (OR: 4.64; 95% CI: 1.02-21.02; p = 0.047). Becker regression was neither affected by a decrease of sarcopenia ≥ 5% (p = 0.867) nor by incomplete compliance with chemotherapy (p = 0.281). CONCLUSIONS Changes in PLR values which tend to increase more than the cut-off seem to be an immediate indicator of incomplete compliance with neoadjuvant/perioperative treatment. Fat loss and sarcopenia do not appear to be related to compliance. More information is needed to reduce the causes of interruption.

Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to summarize the current evidence-based approach to perioperative enteral nutritional (EN) program for gastric cancer (GC) surgery and to develop a staged and operable EN management scheme based on the evidence to provide clinical guidance for improving perioperative EN management in patients with GC.Methods: First, we synthesized expert consensuses, systematic reviews, and guidelines related to GC patients who had undergone surgery, based on a review of the literature and expert meetings. Subsequently, after carefully evaluating and selecting relevant EN management data, we created a preliminary draft of a perioperative EN program. Following Delphi expert consultations, the final version of the perioperative EN program was constructed after revision.Results: After two rounds of consultation, the expert opinions tended to be consistent. The expert positive coefficient was 1.00, and the expert authority coefficient was 0.90. After the second round of consultation, the coefficient of variation of the importance score ranged from 0.05 to 0.20, and the coefficient of variation of the feasibility score ranged from 0.09 to 0.23. The Kendall harmony coefficients were 0.338 and 0.392, and the difference between them was statistically significant (p < 0.001). The final practice plan includes 4 first-level, 16 s-level, and 64 third-level items.Conclusions: The perioperative EN program constructed in this study is comprehensive in content, feasible, and evidence-based, and can provide insights for clinical improvement.

World J Gastrointest Surg 2023; 15:1125-1137. [PMID: 37405095 PMCID: PMC10315126 DOI: 10.4240/wjgs.v15.i6.1125] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2023] [Revised: 02/21/2023] [Accepted: 04/17/2023] [Indexed: 06/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score is an indicator of liver dysfunction and is useful for predicting prognosis of hepatocellular carcinomas. Currently, this liver function index has been used to predict prognosis in other neoplasms. However, the significance of ALBI score in gastric cancer (GC) after radical resection has not been elucidated.
AIM To evaluate the prognostic value of the preoperative ALBI status in patients with GC who received curative treatment.
METHODS Patients with GC who underwent curative intended gastrectomy were retrospectively evaluated from our prospective database. ALBI score was calculated as follows: (log10 bilirubin × 0.660) + (albumin × -0.085). The receiver operating characteristic curve with area under the curve (AUC) was plotted to evaluate the ability of ALBI score in predicting recurrence or death. The optimal cutoff value was determined by maximizing Youden’s index, and patients were divided into low and high-ALBI groups. The Kaplan-Meier curve was used to analyze the survival, and the log-rank test was used for comparison between groups.
RESULTS A total of 361 patients (235 males) were enrolled. The median ALBI value for the entire cohort was -2.89 (IQR -3.13; -2.59). The AUC for ALBI score was 0.617 (95%CI: 0.556-0.673, P < 0.001), and the cutoff value was -2.82. Accordingly, 211 (58.4%) patients were classified as low-ALBI group and 150 (41.6%) as high-ALBI group. Older age (P = 0.005), lower hemoglobin level (P < 0.001), American Society of Anesthesiologists classification III/IV (P = 0.001), and D1 lymphadenectomy P = 0.003) were more frequent in the high-ALBI group. There was no difference between both groups in terms of Lauren histological type, depth of tumor invasion (pT), presence of lymph node metastasis (pN), and pathologic (pTNM) stage. Major postoperative complication, and mortality at 30 and 90 days were higher in the high-ALBI patients. In the survival analysis, the high-ALBI group had worse disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) compared to those with low-ALBI (P < 0.001). When stratified by pTNM, the difference between ALBI groups was maintained in stage I/II and stage III CG for DFS (P < 0.001 and P = 0.021, respectively); and for OS (P < 0.001 and P = 0.063, respectively). In multivariate analysis, total gastrectomy, advanced pT stage, presence of lymph node metastasis and high-ALBI were independent factors associated with worse survival.
CONCLUSION The preoperative ALBI score is able to predict the outcomes of patients with GC, where high-ALBI patients have worse prognosis. Also, ALBI score allows risk stratification of patients within the same pTNM stages, and represents an independent risk factor associated with survival.

Early vs delayed enteral nutrition or parenteral nutrition in hospitalized patients: An umbrella review of systematic reviews and meta-analyses of randomized trials. Nutr Clin Pract 2023; 38:564-579.

Abstract
We conducted an umbrella review to summarize the existing evidence on the effect of early enteral nutrition (EEN) compared with other approaches, including delayed enteral nutrition (DEN), parenteral nutrition (PN), and oral feeding (OF) on clinical outcomes in hospitalized patients. We performed a systematic search up to December 2021, in MEDLINE (via PubMed), Scopus, and Institute for Scientific Information Web of Science. We included systematic reviews with meta-analyses (SRMAs) of randomized trials investigating EEN compared with DEN, PN, or OF for any clinical outcomes in hospitalized patients. We used "A Measurement Tool to Assess Systematic Reviews" (AMSTAR2) and the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool for assessing the methodological quality of the systematic reviews and their included trial, respectively. The certainty of the evidence was rated using the "Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation" (GRADE) approach. We included 45 eligible SRMAs contributing with a total of 103 randomized controlled trials. The overall meta-analyses showed that patients who received EEN had statistically significant beneficial effects on most outcomes compared with any control (ie, DEN, PN, or OF), including mortality, sepsis, overall complications, infection complications, multiorgan failure, anastomotic leakage, length of hospital stay, time to flatus, and serum albumin levels. No statistically significant beneficial effects were found for risk of pneumonia, noninfectious complications, vomiting, wound infection, as well as number of days of ventilation, intensive care unit days, serum protein, and pre-serum albumin levels. Our results indicate that EEN may be preferred over DEN, PN, and OF because of the beneficial effects on many clinical outcomes.

Effects of oral immunonutrition on histological changes of inflammatory infiltration of the tumor microenvironment among patients with a new diagnosis of gastric cancer. Nutrition 2023; 105:111855. [PMID: 36308915 DOI: 10.1016/j.nut.2022.111855] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2022] [Revised: 09/20/2022] [Accepted: 09/20/2022] [Indexed: 10/14/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES We assessed the effects of oral immunonutrition (OI) on the inflammatory infiltration of the tumor microenvironment (TME) of patients undergoing surgery for gastric cancer. METHODS We analyzed patients at the time of their first gastric cancer diagnosis. We collected surgical tissue specimens (stomach), and performed an immunohistochemical analysis to evaluate the inflammatory infiltration of the TME. Patients receiving OI were compared with patients receiving standard oral nutritional supplements and no nutritional support. RESULTS We enrolled 12 patients with gastric cancer in the study. The median body weight loss was 5.6%. Four patients received OI, five patients received standard nutritional supplement, and three patients received no nutritional supplementation. No difference in age, body mass index (BMI), and body weight loss was observed between the three groups. The OI group showed a tendency of increased number of T-lymphocyte cluster of differentiation (CD) 8+ compared with the other groups, as well as the number of CD83+ and CD68+. The absence of F4/80+ cells was documented only in the TME of the OI group, where a linear positive correlation was present between lymphocytes CD4+ and CD8+ (R = 0.48), and between CD4+ and CD83+ (R = 0.89), although not statistically significant. In the OI group, we observed a positive correlation (not significant) between the number of lymphocytes CD8+ and macrophages CD68+ (R = 0.70; P = 0.30). A strong significant correlation was documented between CD68+ and CD40+ (R = 0.99; P = 0.01), but this correlation did not reach the significance among the patients of the other two groups (R = 0.60; P = 0.116). CONCLUSIONS The administration of OI in patients with gastric cancer might determine changes in inflammatory patterns of the TME.

Abstract
We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of enteral immunonutrition compared with enteral nutrition on surgical wound infection, immune and inflammatory factors, serum proteins, and cellular immunity in subjects with gastric cancer undergoing a total gastrectomy. A systematic literature search up to November 2021 was done, and 10 studies included 1056 subjects with gastric cancer undergoing a total gastrectomy at the start of the study: 505 of them were provided with enteral immunonutrition, and 551 were enteral nutrition. They were reporting relationships about the effect of enteral immunonutrition compared with enteral nutrition on surgical wound infection, immune and inflammatory factors, serum proteins, and cellular immunity in subjects with gastric cancer undergoing a total gastrectomy. We calculated the odds ratio (OR) or mean difference (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) to assess the effect of enteral immunonutrition compared with enteral nutrition on surgical wound infection, immune and inflammatory factors, serum proteins, and cellular immunity in subjects with gastric cancer undergoing a total gastrectomy using the dichotomous or contentious method with a random or fixed-effect model. Enteral immunonutrition had no significant difference in the surgical wound infection (OR, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.50-1.19, P = .24), the infectious complication (OR, 0.72; 95% CI, .48-1.09, P = .13), the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (MD, -0.50; 95% CI, -1.40 to 0.39, P = .27), the CD8+ level (MD, 1.34; 95% CI, 0-2.68, P = .05), the CD4+ level (MD, 1.21; 95% CI, -7.65 to 10.07, P = .79), the CD4-CD8+ (MD, 0.55; 95% CI, 0-1.10, P = .05), the lymphocyte (MD, -0.77; 95% CI, -1.87 to 0.33, P = .17), and the transferrin (MD, 0.03; 95% CI, -0.01 to 0.08, P = .14) compared with enteral nutrition in subjects with gastric cancer undergoing a total gastrectomy. However, enteral immunonutrition had significantly higher proalbumin (MD, 22.15; 95% CI, 3.57-40.72, P = .02), IgM (MD, 0.47; 95% CI, 0.43-0.50, P < .001), and IgG (MD, 1.98; 95% CI, 1.08-2.89, P < .001) compared with enteral nutrition in subjects with gastric cancer undergoing a total gastrectomy. Enteral immunonutrition had no significant difference in the surgical wound infection, the infectious complication, the systemic inflammatory response syndrome, the CD8+ level, the CD4+ level, the CD4+/CD8+, the lymphocyte, and the transferrin, and had significantly higher proalbumin, IgM, and IgG compared with enteral nutrition in subjects with gastric cancer undergoing a total gastrectomy. Further studies are required to validate these findings or to affect the confidence level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Enteral immunonutrition (EIN) has been extensively applied in cancer patients; however, its role in esophageal cancer (EC) patients receiving esophagectomy remains unclear. We performed this network meta-analysis to investigate the impact of EIN on patients undergoing surgery for EC and further determine the optimal time of applying EIN. METHODS We searched PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane library, and China National Knowledgement Infrastructure (CNKI) to identify eligible studies. Categorical data was expressed as the odds ratio with 95% confidence interval (CI), and continuous data was expressed as mean difference (MD) with 95% CI. Meta-analysis with head-to-head approach and network meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the impact of EIN on clinical outcomes using RevMan 5.3 and ADDIS V.1.16.8 software. The surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA) was calculated to rank all nutritional regimes. RESULTS Total 14 studies involving 1071 patients were included. Meta-analysis with head-to-head approach indicated no difference between EIN regardless of the application time and standard EN (SEN); however, subgroup analyses found that postoperative EIN was associated with decreased incidence of total infectious complications (OR = 0.47; 95%CI = 0.26 to 0.84; p = 0.01) and pneumonia (OR = 0.47; 95%CI = 0.25 to 0.90; p = 0.02) and shortened the length of hospitalization (LOH) (MD = - 1.01; 95%CI = - 1.44 to - 0.57; p < 0.001) compared to SEN, which were all supported by network meta-analyses. Ranking probability analysis further indicated that postoperative EIN has the highest probability of being the optimal option in terms of these three outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Postoperative EIN should be preferentially utilized in EC patients undergoing esophagectomy because it has optimal potential of decreasing the risk of total infectious complications and pneumonia and shortening LOH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative immunonutrition (IN) reduces the incidence of postoperative complications in malnourished patients undergoing upper gastrointestinal surgery. However, its effect in norm-nourished patients remains unclear. Furthermore, patients with gastric cancer undergoing laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG) are not routinely included in protocols of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of perioperative IN in patients undergoing laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG) within an established ERAS pathway. METHODS A comparative retrospective study of patients undergoing LTG, receiving an immune-enhancing feed plus maltodextrin load the day of surgery (Group A) versus patients who had the same operation but no IN nor fast track management (group B). RESULTS There were no significant differences in patient demographic characteristics between the two groups but the medium age of patients in group A was older. Thirty-days postoperative complications were respectively 8.7% in Group A and 33.3% in Group B (p 0.04). Mean and median LOS for Group A and B were also significantly different: 7.2 ± 4.4 vs 10.3 ± 5.4 and 7 vs 10 days respectively. CONCLUSION Preoperative IN associated with ERAS protocol in normo-nourished patient undergoing LTG seems to reduce postoperative complications. Reduction in LOS is possibly associated to the ERAS protocol. Clinical trial registration Clinical trials.gov: NCT05259488.

Abstract
Background The systemic inflammatory response resulting from the complex interactions between cancer and the host plays an important role in cancer development. Recently, the lymphocyte-C-reactive protein ratio (LCR), which is a hematological and biochemical marker that reflects the systemic inflammatory response and nutritional status, has been reported to be associated with poor survival. Similar results were observed in patients with certain cancer types. However, these studies focused on the preoperative LCR, and thus far, no studies have reported the relationship between postoperative LCR and prognosis in patients with gastric cancer (GC). Methods This study enrolled 455 patients with a histopathological diagnosis of gastric adenocarcinoma who underwent curative surgery at our institution between 2005 and 2018. The relationship between both the preoperative and postoperative LCR and the prognosis of patients with GC was retrospectively investigated. Results Preoperative LCR showed significant correlations with tumor-related factors, such as tumor size, depth of invasion, and lymph node metastasis. By contrast, no correlation was observed between postoperative LCR and tumor-related factors. The 5 year survival rate was significantly worse in patients with low preoperative LCR than in those with high preoperative LCR (65.4% vs. 83.9%, p < 0.0001). Similarly, the 5 year survival rate was also significantly worse in patients with low postoperative LCR than in those with high postoperative LCR (67.0% vs. 84.1%, p < 0.0001). Furthermore, combination analysis of the pre- and postoperative LCR revealed that the prognosis of patients with both low pre- and postoperative LCR was worse in patients with GC (5 year survival rate was 52.0%). A multivariate analysis indicated that a low pre- and postoperative LCR and age and lymph node metastasis were independent prognostic indicators. Conclusions The combination of preoperative and postoperative LCR appears to be useful in predicting the prognosis of patients with GC.

Abstract
Purpose The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of preoperative and postoperative malnutrition on postoperative short- and long-term outcomes for ampullary carcinoma after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). Methods Data were collected retrospectively from 511 patients with ampullary carcinoma who underwent PD between June 2012 and June 2019. Nutritional status before and at 3, 6, and 12 months after operation was assessed by the scored Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA). The patients were classified into well-nourished, moderately malnourished, and severely malnourished group according to the PG-SGA score. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to adjust baseline characteristics between preoperative group A (well-nourished and moderately malnourished group) and group B (severely malnourished group). After PSM, clinicopathological variables and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Univariate and multivariate Cox analysis was also conducted to investigate the prognostic factors of overall survival of patients with ampullary carcinoma who underwent PD. Results Preoperatively, 122 (23.9%) patients were classified into well-nourished group, 189 (37.0%) into moderately malnourished group, and 200 (39.1%) into severely malnourished group. After PSM analysis, the incidence of overall postoperative complications was higher in group B than that in group A (50.5% vs. 32.5%, p < 0.001). Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model showed that severe malnutrition (PG-SGA score >9 scores) before operation [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.508; 95% CI, 1.103–2.061; p = 0.01] and at 6 months (HR = 4.148; 95% CI, 2.523–6.820; p < 0.001) and 12 months (HR = 5.272; 95% CI, 3.630–7.656; p < 0.001) after operation was an independent prognostic factor of patients who underwent PD for ampullary carcinoma. Conclusions Severe malnutrition before and at 6 and 12 months after operation significantly affects the long-term survival of patients with ampullary carcinoma who underwent PD. Additionally, the preoperative malnutrition was closely related to postoperative complications.

Abstract
Gastric cancer treatments are rapidly evolving, leading to significant survival benefit. Recent evidence provided by clinical trials strongly encouraged the use of perioperative chemotherapy as standard treatment for the localized disease, whereas in the advanced disease setting, molecular characterization has improved patients’ selection for tailored therapeutic approaches, including molecular targeted therapy and immunotherapy. The role of nutritional therapy is widely recognized, with oncologic treatment’s tolerance and response being better in well-nourished patients. In this review, literature data on strategies or nutritional interventions will be critically examined, with particular regard to different treatment phases (perioperative, metastatic, and palliative settings), with the aim to draw practical indications for an adequate nutritional support of gastric cancer patients and provide an insight on future directions in nutritional strategies. We extensively analyzed the last 10 years of literature, in order to provide evidence that may fit current clinical practice both in terms of nutritional interventions and oncological treatment. Overall, 137 works were selected: 34 Randomized Clinical Trials (RCTs), 12 meta-analysis, 9 reviews, and the most relevant prospective, retrospective and cross-sectional studies in this setting. Eleven ongoing trials have been selected from clinicaltrial.gov as representative of current research. One limitation of our work lies in the heterogeneity of the described studies, in terms of sample size, study procedures, and both nutritional and clinical outcomes. Indeed, to date, there are no specific evidence-based guidelines in this fields, therefore we proposed a clinical algorithm with the aim to indicate an appropriate nutritional strategy for gastric cancer patients.

Abstract
Early oral feeding is the preferred mode of nutrition for surgical patients. Avoidance of any nutritional therapy bears the risk of underfeeding during the postoperative course after major surgery. Considering that malnutrition and underfeeding are risk factors for postoperative complications, early enteral feeding is especially relevant for any surgical patient at nutritional risk, especially for those undergoing upper gastrointestinal surgery. The focus of this guideline is to cover both nutritional aspects of the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) concept and the special nutritional needs of patients undergoing major surgery, e.g. for cancer, and of those developing severe complications despite best perioperative care. From a metabolic and nutritional point of view, the key aspects of perioperative care include the integration of nutrition into the overall management of the patient, avoidance of long periods of preoperative fasting, re-establishment of oral feeding as early as possible after surgery, the start of nutritional therapy immediately if a nutritional risk becomes apparent, metabolic control e.g. of blood glucose, reduction of factors which exacerbate stress-related catabolism or impaired gastrointestinal function, minimized time on paralytic agents for ventilator management in the postoperative period, and early mobilization to facilitate protein synthesis and muscle function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) care pathways include evidence-based items designed to accelerate recovery after surgery. Interdisciplinarity is one of the key points of ERAS programs. OBJECTIVE To prepare a consensus document among the members of the Nutrition Area of the Spanish Society of Endocrinology and Nutrition (SEEN) and the Spanish Group for Multimodal Rehabilitation (GERM), in which the goal is to homogenize the nutritional and metabolic management of patients included in an ERAS program. METHODS 69 specialists in Endocrinology and Nutrition and 85 members of the GERM participated in the project. After a literature review, 79 statements were proposed, divided into 5 sections: 17 of general characteristics, 28 referring to the preoperative period, 4 to the intraoperative, 13 to the perioperative and 17 to the postoperative period. The degree of consensus was determined through a Delphi process of 2 circulations that was ratified by a consistency analysis. RESULTS Overall, in 61 of the 79 statements there was a consistent agreement, with the degree of consensus being greater among members of the SEEN (64/79) than members of the GERM (59/79). Within the 18 statements where a consistent agreement was not reached, we should highlight some important nutritional strategies such as muscle mass assessment, the start of early oral feeding or pharmaconutrition. CONCLUSION Consensus was reached on the vast majority of the nutritional measures and care included in ERAS programs. Due to the lack of agreement on certain key points, it is necessary to continue working closely with both societies to improve the recovery of the surgical patients.

Abstract
Simple Summary Nutritional support for patients who underwent surgery for colorectal cancer is widely accepted for reducing the incidence of perioperative complications. Immunonutrition is generally recommended to decrease the incidence of infectious complications. However, there is little clinical data regarding the impact of such treatment on tumor biology. Some basic studies show its negative impact on the development of the tumor, while others suggest it might be beneficial. Currently, there is no clinical evidence for any effect of immunonutrition on tumor tissues in vivo. Therefore, we designed this pilot randomized controlled trial to investigate the impact of immunonutrition compared with standard nutritional support in the preoperative period on the inflammatory response, cytokine expression, and leukocyte infiltration in the tumor tissue. Changes in tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin 8 or chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand (CXCL8), and chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 1 (CXCL1) expression were observed after the intervention. In the immune group, a decrease in neutrophil infiltration was observed. Immunonutrition in the preoperative period influenced inflammatory response in patients with colorectal cancer. Abstract Introduction: Surgery is the first choice of treatment for colorectal cancer. Nutritional support in the form of oral nutritional supplements (ONSs) in the preoperative period is widely accepted for reducing the incidence of perioperative complications, and immunonutrition is generally recommended. However, there is little clinical data regarding the impact of such treatment on tumor biology. Material and Methods: In this study, tumor tissue and blood samples were collected from 26 patients during preoperative colonoscopy at the time of clinical diagnosis (sample A). Group 1 received standard ONSs (3× Nutricia Nutridrink Protein per day) for 2 weeks before surgery. In group 2, immune ONSs (2× Nestle Impact Oral) were administered for the same duration. Tumor tissue (sample B) was then retrieved from the tumor after resection. Changes in the expression levels of inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, interleukin 8 or chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand (CXCL8), stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF1a), chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 6 (CXCL6), chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand (CXCL2), myeloperoxidase (MPO), and CXCL1) were assessed during the perioperative course. Results: TNF-α expression differed after intervention between the two groups (immune group 31.63 ± 13.28; control group 21.54 ± 6.84; p = 0.049) and prior to and after intervention in the control group (prior to intervention 35.68 ± 24.41; after intervention 21.54 ± 6.84; p = 0.038). Changes in CXCL8 expression in the control group occurred prior to and after intervention (prior to intervention 2975.93 ± 1484.04; after intervention 1584.85 ± 1659.84; p = 0.041). CXCL1 expression was increased in the immune group and decreased in the control group (immune group 2698.27 (1538.14–5124.70); control group 953.75 (457.85–1534.60); p = 0.032). In both groups, a decrease in superficial neutrophil infiltration was observed, but this was only statistically significant in the immune group. There was no impact of the observed differences between the two groups on surgical outcomes (morbidity, length of stay, readmissions). Conclusions: Immunonutrition in the preoperative period compared with standard nutritional support may influence inflammatory cytokine expression and leukocyte infiltration in patients with colorectal cancer.

Abstract
Objective To avoid perioperative complications caused malnutrition, nutrition therapy is necessary in gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) patients. Compared to parenteral nutrition (PN), enteral nutrition (EN) is associated with many advantages. This study aimed to investigate whether preoperative EN has beneficial clinical effects compared to preoperative PN in gastric cancer patients with GOO undergoing surgery. Methods According to the methods of preoperative nutrition therapy, 143 patients were divided into EN group (n=42) and PN group (n=101) between January 2013 and December 2017 at the Chinese People’s Liberation Army General Hospital. Multiple logistic regression models were used to assess the association between the methods of preoperative nutrition therapy and postoperative day of flatus passage. The generalized additive model and two-piecewise linear regression model were used to calculate the inflection point of the preoperative nutritional therapy time on the postoperative day of flatus passage in the PN group. Results EN shortened the postoperative day of flatus passage in gastric cancer patients with GOO, which is a protective factor, especially in patients who underwent non-radical operations and the postoperative day of flatus passage reduced when the preoperative PN therapy was up to 3 d and a longer PN therapy (>3 d) did not accelerate the postoperative recovery of gastrointestinal functions. Conclusions Preoperative EN therapy would benefit gastric cancer patients with GOO by accelerating postoperative recovery. For patients with absolute obstruction, no more than 3-day PN therapy is recommended if patients can tolerate general anesthesia and surgery.

Abstract
Purpose The liver function index can predict the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma and many other non-neoplastic diseases. We aimed to determine whether the preoperative albumin–bilirubin (ALBI) grade could predict the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer (GC). Patients and Methods Data of 243 patients with GC who underwent radical resection were collected retrospectively. Patients were divided into the high ALBI (>−2.34) and low ALBI (≤−2.34) grade groups. Overall survival was analyzed between the two groups using the Kaplan–Meier curves. Univariate and multivariate analyses identified the independent factors associated with postoperative complications and overall survival. Results The postoperative complication rates were higher in the high ALBI grade group than in the low ALBI grade group (P=0.005). The high ALBI grade group also had worse overall survival (P<0.001), especially TNM stage II–III patients (stage II, P=0.043; stage III, P<0.001). In the high ALBI grade group, patients with TNM stage III not undergoing chemotherapy had significantly worse survival times (P=0.001). High ALBI grade (P=0.032), Charlson score of 1–2 (P=0.007), and laparotomy surgery (P=0.045) were independent risk factors for postoperative complications. High ALBI grade (P=0.005), age ≥70 years (P=0.002), nutritional risk screening score 2002 score of 5–6 (P=0.019), tumor located in the cardia (P=0.020), diffuse tumor (P<0.001), and TNM stage III (P<0.001) were independent risk factors for overall survival. Conclusion Preoperative ALBI grade could predict postoperative complications and overall survival of patients with GC, especially those with TNM stages II–III. This grading method has the advantages of preoperative availability, simplicity, and objectivity and aids in improving preoperative prognosis prediction and in achieving better outcomes of postoperative chemotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS This study is focused on the impact of enteral immunonutrition on the cell-mediated immune response in the microenvironment of gastric and colorectal cancers. METHODS This is a prospective pilot study approved by the local Ethics Committee. The immunophenotypic structure of the immune cells before (on the biopsy) and after (on the surgical sample) the administration of the immunonutrition in 16 patients is compared with 8 patients receiving regular diet. The samples of non-tumour tissue from sleeve-gastrectomy are used as non-neoplastic control. Antibodies were tested: CD4, CD8, PD-1, FOX-P3, CD68, CD163, CD80, CD21, CD56, PD-L1. We applied already well-known scoring systems for the evaluation of the immunohistochemistry and compared our data in the different groups by statistical analysis. RESULTS In treated patients, we detected a modulation of the immune response with higher number of cytotoxic and helper T-lymphocytes in the tumour microenvironment of the surgical specimens compared to the pre-operative biopsy, and a lower number of lymphocytes presenting an exhausted (i.e. double positive CD8 and PD-1 lymphocytes) and regulatory (i.e. double positive CD4 and FOX-P3 lymphocytes) phenotype. Moreover we observed the M1 polarization with a lower number of CD163 positive macrophages and the inhibition of the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway in treated patients. CONCLUSIONS The immunonutrition impacts on the tumoral microenvironment of gastric and colorectal cancer activating the inflammatory pathway, in terms of humoral and cellular response.

Abstract
Modulation of immune responses by nutrients is an important area of study in cellular biology and clinical sciences in the context of cancer therapies and anti-pathogen-directed immune responses in health and disease. We review metabolic pathways that influence immune cell function and cellular persistence in chronic infections. We also highlight the role of nutrients in altering the tissue microenvironment with lessons from the tumor microenvironment that shapes the quality and quantity of cellular immune responses. Multiple layers of biological networks, including the nature of nutritional supplements, the genetic background, previous exposures, and gut microbiota status have impact on cellular performance and immune competence against molecularly defined targets. We discuss how immune metabolism determines the differentiation pathway of antigen-specific immune cells and how these insights can be explored to devise better strategies to strengthen anti-pathogen-directed immune responses, while curbing unwanted, non-productive inflammation.

Abstract
The prognostic nutritional index (PNI), which reflects preoperative malnutrition, is useful for predicting the incidence of postoperative complications and has been reported in recent years to predict the long-term prognosis of various malignancies. The purpose of this study was to clarify the significance of PNI as a prognostic factor for early-stage clear cell ovarian carcinoma. A total of 82 patients with stage I-II (FIGO 2014) ovarian clear cell carcinoma undergoing primary surgery at our hospital from January 2005 to December 2017 were enrolled. PNI was calculated using the formula: 10 × serum albumin (g/ dL) + 0.005 × peripheral blood lymphocyte count (/mm3). Preoperative PNI exhibited relatively high area under the curve value (0.709) for 5 year survival, and the optimal cutoff value was 46.5. The overall survival was significantly shorter in the PNI-low group than in the PNI-high group. Multivariate analysis showed that high PNI was a significant independent prognostic factor for favorable prognosis (hazard ratio = 0.102, p = 0.010). There was no significant difference in recurrence-free survival between the two groups (p = 0.220), but the postrecurrence survival was significantly longer in the PNI-high group than in the PNI-low group (p = 0.0383). The preoperative PNI was a useful predictor of prognosis, even in early-stage ovarian clear cell carcinoma.

Abstract
Significant advances were achieved, in last decades, in the management of surgical patients with gastric cancer. This has led to the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) with the objective of reducing the length of hospital stay, accelerating postoperative recovery and reducing the surgical stress. The ERAS protocols have many items, including the pre-operative patient education, early mobilization and feeding starting from the first postoperative day. This review aims to highlight possible advantages on postoperative functional recovery outcomes after gastrectomy in patients undergoing an ERAS program, current lack of evidences and future perspectives.

Abstract
Bioactive supplements display relevant therapeutic properties when properly applied according to validated molecular effects. Our previous research efforts established the basis to develop a dietary supplement based on a Rosmarinus officinalis supercritical extract. This was enriched in phenolic diterpenes (RE) with proven properties against signaling pathways involved in colon tumorigenesis, and shark liver oil rich in alkylglycerols (AKG) as a bioactive lipid vehicle to improve RE bioavailability and synergize with the potential therapeutic action of the extract. Herein, we have investigated the tolerability and safety of the supplement and the biological and molecular effects from an immuno-nutritional perspective. Sixty healthy volunteers participated in a six week, double-blind, randomized parallel pilot study with two study arms: RE-AKG capsules (CR) and control capsules (CC). Mean age (±SD) of volunteers was 28.32 (±11.39) and 27.5 (±9.04) for the control and the study groups, respectively. Safety of the CR product consumption was confirmed by analyzing liver profile, vital constants, and oxidation markers (LDLox in blood and isoprostanes and thromboxanes in urine). The following were monitored: (1) the phenotyping of plasmatic leukocytes and the ex vivo response of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs); (2) expression of genes associated with immune-modulation, inflammation, oxidative stress, lipid metabolism, and tumorigenesis; and (3) the correlation of selected genetic variants (SNPs) with the differential responses among individuals. The lack of adverse effects on liver profile and oxidation markers, together with adequate tolerability and safe immunological adaptations, provide high-quality information for the potential use of CR as co-adjuvant of therapeutic strategies against colorectal cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative nutritional status is considered to affect the short-term and long-term outcomes of cancer patients. The clinical value of the controlling nutritional status (CONUT) score in elderly patients undergoing gastrectomy for gastric cancer remains unknown. METHODS This study reviewed 211 elderly patients aged 75 years or over who underwent curative resection for gastric cancer from 2000 to 2015. Patients were grouped according to the preoperative CONUT score into those with normal nutrition (75 patients), light malnutrition (100 patients) and moderate or severe malnutrition (36 patients). The predictive value of the CONUT score for postoperative morbidity and survival was assessed. RESULTS Impaired nutrition was associated with cardiovascular disease (P = 0.012) and chronic kidney disease (P = 0.014), and worsened malnutrition was linked to advanced age (P = 0.004), decreased body mass index (P = 0.008) and advanced disease stage (P = 0.01). Multivariate analysis showed the CONUT score as an independent predictor of procedure-unrelated infectious morbidity (odds ratio, 2.36; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.99-5.40; P = 0.046). Patients with a higher CONUT score had significantly shorter overall survival in both stage I and stage II/III gastric cancer (P = 0.044 and P = 0.007, respectively) and reduced cancer-specific survival in stage II/III (P = 0.003) The CONUT score was a strong predictors of overall survival (hazard ratio [HR], 2.12; 95% CI, 1.18-3.69; P = 0.012) and cancer-specific survival (HR, 3.75; 95% CI, 1.30-10.43; P = 0.015) independent of disease stage. CONCLUSIONS The preoperative CONUT score is a simple and promising predictor of postoperative procedure-unrelated infectious morbidity and prognosis in elderly gastric cancer patients.

Abstract
Since the late 1990s, perioperative care through the enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS, European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism [ESPEN]) program has spread. ERAS protocols aim to reduce surgical complications, improving postoperative outcomes and thereby saving resources by addressing various clinical elements through a multidisciplinary approach or based on evidence. In the field of gastric cancer, the philosophy of ERAS has gradually become accepted and, in 2014, consensus guidelines for enhanced recovery after gastrectomy were published. These guidelines consist of "procedure-specific" guidelines and "general (not procedure-specific) enhanced recovery items." In this review, we focused on the procedure-specific guidelines and tried to update the contents of every element of the procedure-specific guidelines. The procedure-specific guidelines consist of the following eight elements: "Preoperative nutrition," "Preoperative oral pharmaconutrition," "Access (of gastrectomy)," "Wound catheters and transversus abdominis plane block," "Nasogastric/Nasojejunal decompression," "Perianastomotic drains," "Early postoperative diet and artificial nutrition," and "Audit." On reviewing papers supporting these elements, it was reconfirmed that the recommendations of the guidelines are pertinent and valid. Four meta-analyses concerning the evaluation of ERAS protocols for gastric cancer were included in this review. Every study showed that the ERAS protocol reduced the cost and duration of hospital stay without increasing surgical complication rates, suggesting that ERAS is effective for gastric cancer surgery. However, it cannot be said that ERAS has achieved full penetration in Japan because most evidence is established in Western countries. Future studies must focus on developing a new ERAS protocols appropriate to Japanese conditions of gastric cancer.

Abstract
The last 25 years have seen an increasing number of publications attesting the benefits of pharmaconutrition in the management of patients undergoing elective oncological gastrointestinal surgery. A number of randomized controlled trials and meta-analyses suggest the use of pharmaconutrition in this group of patients produces superior outcomes to standard nutritional formulations in terms of postoperative infective complications, anastomotic breakdown and length of hospital stay. The use of pharmaconutrition products, therefore, has gained increasing acceptance for use in elective gastrointestinal oncological surgical populations and been incorporated into practice guidelines. However, there remains doubts as to the robustness of such data supporting these recommendation. This is because studies reporting improved outcomes with pharmaconutrition (I) frequently compare this intervention with non-equivalent control groups; (II) do not report on the actual nutritional provision received by study participants; (III) overlook the potential impact of industry funding on research conducted and (IV) do not adopt a multi-disciplinary approach to the research undertaken. For these reasons, a critical re-appraisal of the use and recommendations of pharmaconutrition in this group of patients is urgently warranted to resolve some of the above mentioned issues. The aim of this review was to analyse meta-analyses published until the end of 2016 in this area to highlight the strengths and weakness of the present research and prioritize certain areas which will benefit from future research.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The controlling nutritional status (CONUT) score is a useful tool to evaluate immune-nutritional status. This study aimed to investigate the impact of the CONUT score on short- and long-term outcomes after curative resection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). METHODS Consecutive 344 PDAC patients receiving pancreatectomy without neoadjuvant therapy were examined retrospectively. After the best predictive value of the CONUT score for survival was identified, association between the CONUT score and long-term outcomes was evaluated using log-rank tests and a Cox regression model. Then correlations between the CONUT score and postoperative complications were analyzed. RESULTS The optimal cutoff value of the CONUT score was 4. The high CONUT score group showed significantly lower overall survival than the low CONUT score group (P = 0.002). In contrast, no significant difference in recurrence-free survival was found (P = 0.43). A multivariate analysis demonstrated that high CONUT score had an independent association with overall survival (hazard ratio, 1.64; P = 0.003). The CONUT score showed no association with postoperative pancreatic fistula, Clavien-Dindo grade, or postoperative hospital stay. CONCLUSION The CONUT score had an independent association with survival in patients with PDAC after pancreatectomy and was not associated with recurrence or postoperative complications.

Abstract
Background The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the prognostic value of preoperative established inflammation-based and/or nutritional markers, C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio (CAR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio, Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI), Glasgow Prognostic Score, and prognostic index in patients with stage II gastric cancer. We then developed a new prognostic index based on the results of our investigation. Methods This study retrospectively reviewed 240 consecutive patients who underwent R0 resection for stage II gastric cancer. Time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curve analyses were performed to assess discrimination ability and to determine optimal cut-off values. Prognostic factors predicting overall survival (OS) were analyzed using Cox proportional hazards models. Results Among inflammation-based and/or nutritional markers, multivariate analyses demonstrated CAR and PNI as independent prognostic factors for OS (hazard ratio (HR) 1.707, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.016-2.867, p=0.044 and HR 0.415, 95%CI 0.234-0.736, p=0.003, respectively). CAR-PNI score, constructed as the combination of CAR and PNI, was significantly associated with OS, relapse-free survival and cancer-specific survival (p<0.001 each). Multivariate analysis revealed CAR-PNI score as an independent prognostic factor for OS (HR for CAR-PNI score 1: 2.432, 95%CI 1.155-5.118; HR for CAR-PNI score 2: 4.099, 95%CI 1.835-9.157; p=0.002). Conclusions CAR and PNI are independent prognostic factors providing superior prediction of survival compared to other inflammation-based and/or nutritional markers. CAR-PNI score offers a novel and promising prognostic indicator for patients with stage II gastric cancer.

Cheng Y, Zhang J, Zhang L, Wu J, Zhan Z. Enteral immunonutrition versus enteral nutrition for gastric cancer patients undergoing a total gastrectomy: a systematic review and meta-analysis. BMC Gastroenterol 2018; 18:11. [PMID: 29338698 PMCID: PMC5771223 DOI: 10.1186/s12876-018-0741-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 50] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2016] [Accepted: 01/09/2018] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Nutrition support is a common means for patients with gastric cancer, especially for those undergoing elective surgery. Recently, enteral immunonutrition (EIN) was increasingly found to be more effective than enteral nutrition (EN) in enhancing the host immunity and eventually improving the prognosis of gastric cancer patients undergoing gastrectomy. However, the results reported were not consistent. This meta-analysis aimed to assess the impact of EIN for patients with GC on biochemical, immune indices and clinical outcomes. Methods Four electronical databases (Medline, EMBASE, Scopus and Cochrane library) were used to search articles in peer-reviewed, English-language journals. Mean difference (MD), Relative risk (RR), or standard mean difference (SMD) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. Heterogeneity was assessed by Cochrane Q and I2 statistic combined with corresponding P-value. The analysis was carried out with RevMan 5.3. Results Seven studies involving 583 patients were eligible for the pooled analysis. EIN, when beyond a 7-day time-frame post-operatively (D ≥ 7), increased level of CD4+ (SMD = 0.99; 95% CI, 0.65–1.33; P < 0.00001), CD4+/ CD8+ (SMD = 0.34; 95% CI, 0.02–0.67; P = 0.04), the IgM (SMD = 1.15; 95% CI, 0.11–2.20; P = 0.03), the IgG (SMD = 0.98; 95% CI, 0.55–1.42; P < 0.0001), the lymphocyte (SMD = 0.69; 95% CI, 0.32–1.06; P = 0.0003), and the proalbumin (SMD = 0.73; 95% CI, 0.33–1.14; P = 0.0004). However, those increased effects were not obvious within a 7-day time-frame post-operatively (D < 7). The levels of CD8+ and other serum proteins except proalbumin were not improved both on D ≥ 7 and D < 7. Clinical outcomes such as systemic inflammatory response syndrone (SIRS) (MD, - 0.89 days; 95% CI, - 1.40 to - 0.39; P = 0.005), and postoperative complications (RR, 0.29; 95% CI, 0.14–0.60; P = 0.001) were significantly reduced in EIN group. Pulmonary infection and length of hospitalization (LHS) were not improved no matter what time after surgery. Conclusions EIN was found to improve the cellular immunity, modulate inflammatory reaction and reduce postoperative complication for GC patients undergoing radical gastrointestinal surgery. Exclusion of grey literature and non-English language studies was the key limitation in this study.

Multimodal Prehabilitation Programs as a Bundle of Care in Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgery: A Systematic Review. Dis Colon Rectum 2018; 61:124-138. [PMID: 29219922 DOI: 10.1097/dcr.0000000000000987] [Citation(s) in RCA: 91] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Prehabilitation reflects a proactive process of preoperative optimization undertaken between cancer diagnosis and definitive surgical treatment, with the intent of improving physiological capacity to withstand the major insult of surgery. Prehabilitation before GI cancer surgery is currently not widely adopted, and most research has focused on unimodal interventions such as exercise therapy, nutritional supplementation, and hematinic optimization. A review of the existing literature was undertaken to investigate the impact of multimodal prehabilitation programs as a "bundle of care." DATA SOURCE A systematic literature search was performed utilizing Medline, PubMed, Embase, Cinahl, Cochrane, and Google Scholar databases. STUDY SELECTION The quality of studies was assessed by using the Cochrane tool for assessing risk of bias (randomized trials) and the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment scale (cohort studies). INTERVENTION Studies were chosen that involved pre-operative optimization of patients before GI cancer surgery. MAIN OUTCOMES The primary outcome measured was the impact of prehabilitation programs on preoperative fitness and postoperative outcomes. RESULTS Of the 544 studies identified, 20 were included in the qualitative analysis. Two trials investigated the impact of multimodal prehabilitation (exercise, nutritional supplementation, anxiety management). Trials exploring prehabilitation with unimodal interventions included impact of exercise therapy (7 trials), impact of preoperative iron replacement (5 trials), nutritional optimization (5 trials), and impact of preoperative smoking cessation (2 trials). Compliance within the identified studies was variable (range: 16%-100%). LIMITATIONS There is a lack of adequately powered trials that utilize objective risk stratification and uniform end points. As such, a meta-analysis was not performed because of the heterogeneity in study design. CONCLUSION Although small studies are supportive of multimodal interventions, there are insufficient data to make a conclusion about the integration of prehabilitation in GI cancer surgery as a bundle of care. Larger, prospective trials, utilizing uniform objective risk stratification and structured interventions, with predefined clinical and health economic end points, are required before definitive value can be assigned to prehabilitation programs.

Abstract
Patients with cancer are at particularly high risk for malnutrition because both the disease and its treatments threaten their nutritional status. Yet cancer-related nutritional risk is sometimes overlooked or under-treated by clinicians, patients, and their families. The European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) recently published evidence-based guidelines for nutritional care in patients with cancer. In further support of these guidelines, an ESPEN oncology expert group met for a Cancer and Nutrition Workshop in Berlin on October 24 and 25, 2016. The group examined the causes and consequences of cancer-related malnutrition, reviewed treatment approaches currently available, and built the rationale and impetus for clinicians involved with care of patients with cancer to take actions that facilitate nutrition support in practice. The content of this position paper is based on presentations and discussions at the Berlin meeting. The expert group emphasized 3 key steps to update nutritional care for people with cancer: (1) screen all patients with cancer for nutritional risk early in the course of their care, regardless of body mass index and weight history; (2) expand nutrition-related assessment practices to include measures of anorexia, body composition, inflammatory biomarkers, resting energy expenditure, and physical function; (3) use multimodal nutritional interventions with individualized plans, including care focused on increasing nutritional intake, lessening inflammation and hypermetabolic stress, and increasing physical activity.

Clinical utility of the platelet-lymphocyte ratio as a predictor of postoperative complications after radical gastrectomy for clinical T2-4 gastric cancer. World J Gastroenterol 2017; 23:2519-2526. [PMID: 28465636 PMCID: PMC5394515 DOI: 10.3748/wjg.v23.i14.2519] [Citation(s) in RCA: 38] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2016] [Revised: 01/25/2017] [Accepted: 03/20/2017] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
AIM To identify simple and sensitive markers for postoperative complications after gastrectomy, the predictive values were compared among candidate preoperative factors.
METHODS Three-hundred and twelve patients with previously untreated clinical T2-4 gastric cancer who underwent a D2 standard gastrectomy (distal gastrectomy or total gastrectomy) were included in the analysis. Correlations between 21 parameters that can be determined by preoperative routine blood tests and clinically relevant postoperative complications (grade II or higher according to the Clavien-Dindo classification) were evaluated. The optimal cutoff values and clinical significance of the selected markers were further evaluated by subgroup analyses according to age, body mass index, operative procedure and clinical disease stage.
RESULTS Sixty-six patients (21.1%) experienced grade II or higher postoperative complications. The platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR, total lymphocyte count/platelet count × 100) exhibited the highest area under the curve value (0.639) for predicting postoperative complications among the 21 parameters, and the optimal cutoff value was determined to be 0.71 (sensitivity = 70%, specificity = 56%). In the univariate analysis, the odds ratio of a low PLR for the occurrence of postoperative complications was 2.94 (95%CI: 1.66-5.35, P < 0.001), and a multivariate binomial logistic analysis involving other potential risk factors identified a low PLR as an independent risk factor for postoperative complications (OR = 3.32, 95%CI: 1.82-6.25, P < 0.001). In subgroups classified according to age, body mass index, operative procedure and clinical disease stage, the low PLR group exhibited an increased incidence of postoperative complications.
CONCLUSION The preoperative PLR is a simple and useful predictor of complications after curative gastrectomy in patients with clinical T2-4 gastric cancer.

Abstract
We examined gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) patients who received two weeks of strengthening pre-operative enteral nutrition therapy (pre-EN) through a nasal–jejenal feeding tube placed under a gastroscope to evaluate the feasibility and potential benefit of pre-EN compared to parenteral nutrition (PN). In this study, 68 patients confirmed to have GOO with upper-gastrointestinal contrast and who accepted the operation were randomized into an EN group and a PN group. The differences in nutritional status, immune function, post-operative complications, weight of patients, first bowel sound and first flatus time, pull tube time, length of hospital stay (LOH), and cost of hospitalization between pre-operation and post-operation were all recorded. Statistical analyses were performed using the chi square test and t-test; statistical significance was defined as p < 0.05. The success rate of the placement was 91.18% (three out of 31 cases). After pre-EN, the levels of weight, albumin (ALB), prealbumin (PA), and transferrin (TNF) in the EN group were significantly increased by pre-operation day compared to admission day, but were not significantly increased in the PN group; the weights in the EN group were significantly increased compared to the PN group by pre-operation day and day of discharge; total protein (TP), ALB, PA, and TNF of the EN group were significantly increased compared to the PN group on pre-operation and post-operative days one and three. The levels of CD3+, CD4+/CD8+, IgA, and IgM in the EN group were higher than those of the PN group at pre-operation and post-operation; the EN group had a significantly lower incidence of poor wound healing, peritoneal cavity infection, pneumonia, and a shorter first bowel sound time, first flatus time, and post-operation hospital stay than the PN group. Pre-EN through a nasal–jejunum feeding tube and placed under a gastroscope in GOO patients was safe, feasible, and beneficial to the nutrition status, immune function, and gastrointestinal function, and sped up recovery, while not increasing the cost of hospitalization.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Optimal enteral immunonutrition (EIN) regime for gastric cancer (GC) patients underwent gastrectomy remains uncertainty. To assess comparative efficacy of different EIN formulas in GC patients underwent gastrectomy, we performed network meta-analysis. RESULTS We included 11 RCTs enrolling 840 patients. Pairwise meta-analysis indicated that EIN (RR 0.56, 95% CI 0.36-0.86; MD -0.42, 95% CI -0.74-0.10), Arg+RNA+ω-3-FAs (RR 0.37, 95% CI 0.22-0.63; MD -0.42, 95% CI -0.75-0.07), Arg+Gln+ω-3-FAs (RR 0.22, 95% CI 0.05-0.94; MD -0.69, 95% CI -1.22-1.07) reduced ICs and LOS. Network meta-analysis confirmed the potential of Arg+RNA+ω-3-FAs for ICs (OR 0.27, 95% Crl 0.12-0.49) and Arg+Gln+ω-3-FAs for CIs (OR 0.22, 95% Crl 0.02-0.84) and LOS (SMD -0.63, 95% Crl -1.07-0.13), and indicated that Arg+RNA+ω-3-FAs was superior to Arg+RNA and Arg+Gln for ICs as well. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed direct and network meta-analyses for randomized controlled trials comparing EIN formulas with each other or standard enteral nutrition (SEN) in reducing infectious complications (ICs), noninfectious complications (NICs) and length of hospital stay (LOS), through January 2016. The surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SCURA) and Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) were used to rank regimes and rate qualities of evidences respectively. CONCLUSIONS As for GC patients underwent gastrectomy, Arg+RNA+ω-3-FAs and Arg+Gln+ω-3-FAs are the optimal regimes of reducing ICs and LOS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Exclusive polymeric diet enriched with transforming growth factor-beta 2 (ANS-TGF-β2) has been used for remission induction and maintenance in pediatric Crohn's disease (CD). Its use in the preoperative setting has never been evaluated. The aim of this study was to evaluate preoperative ANS-TGF-β2 to decrease postoperative complications after surgery for complicated ileocolonic CD. METHODS From 2011 to 2015, data of all consecutive patients who underwent elective surgery for ileocolonic CD were collected prospectively. Preoperative, exclusive ANS-TGF-β2 was administered in high-risk patients with complicated CD. Complicated CD was defined by the presence of obstructive symptoms, and/or steroid treatment, and/or preoperative weight loss >10% and/or perforating CD. Outcomes of high-risk patients receiving preoperative ANS-TGF-β2 were compared to those of low-risk patients with no complicated CD who underwent upfront surgery. RESULTS Fifty-six patients underwent surgery for ileocolonic CD. Among them, 35 high-risk patients received preoperative ANS-TGF-β2 and 21 low-risk patients underwent upfront surgery. Preoperative full-dose ANS-TGF-β2 was feasible in 34/35 high-risk patients. Discontinuation of steroids during preoperative ANS-TGF-β2 could be achieved in 10/16 patients (62.5%). Postoperative complications rates were 8/35 (23.8%) and 5/21 (22.9%) in high-risk and low-risk patients, respectively (p = 1). Temporary ileocolostomy rates in high-risk patients and in low-risk patients were 4/35 (11%) and 0/21, respectively (p = 0.286) Conclusion: Preoperative ANS-TGF-β2 is feasible in most high-risk patients with complicated ileocolonic CD and could limit the deleterious effects of risk factors of postoperative morbidity. These results need to be confirmed in a large randomized controlled trial.

Abstract
Object. To test whether preoperative immunonutrition is efficacious in reducing postoperative complications in patients of thymoma with myasthenia gravis (MG). Material and Methods. A total of 244 patients operated on for thymoma with myasthenia gravis were prospectively assigned to two groups, each receiving seven-day preoperative and seven-day postoperative nutrition. The patients in immunonutrition group were given oral immunonutrition (IN). The patients in control group received oral standard nutrition. Immunonutritional and inflammatory biomarkers (IgA, IgG, IgM, CD3t, CD4t, CD8t, CD4t/CD8t ratio, NK-cell, prealbumin, albumin, white blood cells counts, and C-reactive protein) and clinical variables (age, gender, BMI, performance status, type of thymoma, type of MG, operative time, pathology, operative approach, postoperative complications, quantity of drainage, hospital stays) were examined. Results. A significant reduction in the length of hospital stay, quantity of drainage, and postoperative complications was observed in the IN group (p < 0.05). An increase in the level of IgA, IgG, IgM, CD3+T, CD4+T, CD4+T/CD8+T, WBC, CRP, and NK-cell in the IN group was observed after thymectomy, while a decrease was seen with regard to prealbumin and albumin (p < 0.05). Conclusion. Preoperative immunonutrition support is effective in reducing postoperative complications in patients of thymoma with MG. It helps to lower the risk of postoperative infectious complications and hospital stays.

Abstract
This study evaluated the effect of an immune-modulatory diet on patients with gastric cancer and identified the parameters associated with postoperative outcomes. This was a single-arm prospective intervention study. At baseline, patients were assessed for nutrition (Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment), inflammatory markers (albumin, C-reactive protein, and interleukin 6 [IL-6]), and immune markers (percentage NK, CD4, CD8, and CD4:CD8 ratio); they also received nutrition counseling and high-calorie/protein supplement. A week before surgery, they were assessed for nutrition and inflammatory/immune markers and started on an immune-modulatory supplement until the day before surgery, when they were evaluated again. On the second postoperative day, patients were assessed for inflammatory/immune parameters, and a final nutrition evaluation was performed until the day of discharge. Complications were recorded daily and up to 30 days after discharge. Thirty-seven patients (60 ± 10 years old) were included, and 57% were classified as malnourished. Maintenance of nutrition and immune parameters occurred throughout the study period, but we found a preoperative increase in C-reactive protein (0.1-1.5 mg/dL) and IL-6 (2.0-14.2 pg/mL) and a postoperative increase in the CD4:CD8 ratio (2.3 ± 1.0). Complications and death were seen in 35%, especially patients with higher preoperative IL-6 (2.2-46 pg/mL), lower CD4:CD8 ratio (1.7 ± 0.5), and lower protein (1.2 ± 0.5 g/kg/d) and calorie intake (1552 ± 584 kcal/kg/d). The high-calorie/protein supplementation with the immune-modulating diet was able to maintain the nutrition and immune status of patients with gastric cancer.

Abstract
Evidence indicates that impaired immunocompetence and nutritional status adversely affect short-term and long-term outcomes of patients with cancer. We aimed to evaluate the clinical significance of preoperative immunocompetence and nutritional status according to Onodera's prognostic nutrition index (PNI) among patients who underwent curative gastrectomy for gastric cancer (GC).This study included 260 patients with stage II/III GC who underwent R0 resection. The predictive values of preoperative nutritional status for postoperative outcome (morbidity and prognosis) were evaluated. Onodera's PNI was calculated as follows: 10 × serum albumin (g/dL) + 0.005 × lymphocyte count (per mm).The mean preoperative PNI was 47.8. The area under the curve for predicting complications was greater for PNI compared with the serum albumin concentration or lymphocyte count. Multivariate analysis identified preoperative PNI < 47 as an independent predictor of postoperative morbidity. Moreover, patients in the PNI < 47 group experienced significantly shorter overall and disease-free survival compared with those in the PNI ≥ 47 group, notably because of a higher prevalence of hematogenous metastasis as the initial recurrence. Subgroup analysis according to disease stage and postoperative adjuvant treatment revealed that the prognostic significance of PNI was more apparent in patients with stage II GC and in those who received adjuvant chemotherapy.Preoperative PNI is easy and inexpensive to determine, and our findings indicate that PNI served as a significant predictor of postoperative morbidity, prognosis, and recurrence patterns of patients with stage II/III GC.
