Systemic Inflammation Response Index as a diagnostic and prognostic predictor of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy: A case-control study from a tertiary center. Int J Gynaecol Obstet 2024; 165:717-722. [PMID: 37922220 DOI: 10.1002/ijgo.15216] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2023] [Revised: 09/15/2023] [Accepted: 10/12/2023] [Indexed: 11/05/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the diagnostic and prognostic value of the Systemic Inflammation Response Index (SIRI) in intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP). METHODS The present case-control study comprised 386 participants, including 192 women with ICP and 194 gestational age-matched pregnant women. Increased fasting biliary acid (FBA) levels (≥10 μmol/L) were accepted as ICP criteria. SIRI values were calculated for the first trimester (SIRI 1), time of diagnosis (SIRI 2), and time of delivery (SIRI 3). The ICP and control groups were compared based on SIRI values, and on obstetrical and neonatal outcomes. The ICP subgroups based on FBA levels (severe ICP [FBA ≥40 μmol/L] and mild ICP [FBA <40 μmol/L]) were also compared for SIRI and pregnancy outcomes. RESULTS Adverse outcomes were significantly higher in the ICP group (P < 0.001). SIRI 2 and SIRI 3 showed negative significant differences between the ICP and control groups, with P values of 0.001 and 0.009, respectively. A significant difference in ICP severity subgroups (P = 0.046) was observed for SIRI 3. In receiver operating characteristics curve analyses, optimal cut-off values for the prediction of ICP were found to be 2.01 and 2.08 for SIRI 2 and SIRI 3, respectively. A cut-off value 1.74 was determined to predict the disease severity for SIRI 3. CONCLUSION SIRI has clinical significance in accordance with the inflammatory etiology of ICP. SIRI might be used with other clinical and laboratory findings for ICP diagnosis and prediction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammation is a part of tumours, and inflammatory cells can affect the proliferation, invasion, and development of tumour cells. An increasing number of peripheral blood inflammatory markers have been found to play very important roles in the treatment and prognosis of cancer patients. The systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) is a newer inflammatory marker, and its role in colorectal cancer, especially in locally advanced rectal cancer, is still unclear. METHODS From 2015 to 2020, 198 patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) who underwent surgery following neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (Neo-CRT) were analysed. Patients were categorized into good- and poor- response groups according to their pathological results, and clinical characteristics and baseline parameters were compared between the two groups. The optimal cutoff values for inflammatory indicators were determined using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed using the Cox proportional hazard model. Survival analysis was performed via the Kaplan‒Meier method. RESULTS After patients were grouped into good and poor response groups, indicator differences were found in CEA, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), and SIRI. According to the ROC analysis, the NLR (P = 0.015), SII (P = 0.001), and SIRI (P = 0.029) were significant prognostic factors. After univariate and multivariate analyses of the Cox proportional hazards regression model, only the SIRI was found to be an independent prognostic factor for overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). Finally, Kaplan‒Meier survival curves also confirmed the ability of the SIRI to predict survival. CONCLUSION The preoperative SIRI can be used to predict the response to Neo-CRT in LARC patients and is an independent predictor of OS and DFS in postoperative patients. A high SIRI was associated with poor radiotherapy response and predicted poor OS and DFS.

Abstract
Background Amounting literatures have reported the significance of systemic inflammatory markers for evaluating tumor prognosis. But few studies have systematically compared their superiority and their impact on adjuvant chemotherapy. Aims We aimed to investigate the ability of inflammatory markers to predict the efficacy of chemotherapy in GC patients undergoing radical therapy and to identify an effective methodology based on the study's findings that would enable clinicians to differentiate between chemotherapy-responsive populations. Methods We retrospectively enrolled 730 GC patients who underwent radical gastrectomy. Fibrinogen (FIB), platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), prognostic nutritional index (PNI), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and lymph node ratio (LNR) were grouped according to cutoff values. Their clinical significance for GC prognosis was determined by multivariate COX regression analysis in the 730 GC patients and high/low PLR status subgroups. Cases were divided into four groups according to PLR status and adjuvant chemotherapy status and survival was compared among groups. Results Multivariate analysis showed that PLR was an independent prognostic factor for overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) of GC patients. Adjuvant chemotherapy improved survival more significantly in patients with low PLR than that with high PLR. Among patients receiving adjuvant chemotherapy, low PLR was significantly associated with prolonged survival in TNM stage II, but not in TNM stage III. Conclusion Preoperative high PLR is an independent risk factor for GC patients undergoing radical gastrectomy and adversely affects the postoperative chemotherapy effect.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy and prognostic significance of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT)-based salvage concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for patients with locoregional recurrence cervical cancer after radical hysterectomy and evaluated two salvage radiotherapy modes-regional RT (involved-field RT combined with regional lymph nodes) and local RT (involved-field RT). METHODS Patients were enrolled retrospectively from January 2011 to January 2022 in three medical centers. Clinical outcomes were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method and a Cox proportional hazards model. Propensity score (PS) matching analysis was used to compare the two RT groups. RESULTS There were 72 patients underwent IMRT-based salvage CCRT. The 5-year overall survival and progression-free survival rates were 65.9% and 57.6%, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that patients with stump recurrence, a lower systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), only one metastatic lesion, and received regional RT had better prognosis than their counterparts. In multivariate analysis, recurrence site was the independent prognostic factor of OS, and SIRI was that of PFS. After PS matching, there were 15 patients each in the regional RT group and local RT group. The 5-year OS rate of regional RT group was better than that of local RT group (90.9 vs. 42.4, p = 0.021). However, there was no significant difference between them in terms of PFS rate (47.1 vs. 38.1, p = 0.195). CONCLUSION Locoregional recurrent cervical cancer treated with IMRT-based salvage therapy has a good prognosis. Recurrence site and SIRI were independent prognostic factors. Regional RT may be a better option for patients with locoregional recurrent.

Abstract
Background: We performed a meta-analysis to investigate the association of the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) with long-term survival outcomes in patients with gastrointestinal malignancy. Methods: PubMed, Web of Science and Embase were searched for relevant studies evaluating the prognostic significance of the SIRI in gastrointestinal malignancies until May 2023. Results: 30 studies with 10,091 patients were included. The pooled results identified that patients in the high SIRI group had a worse overall survival and disease-free survival, which was observed across various tumor types, tumor stages and primary treatments. Conclusion: An elevated SIRI is negatively associated with worse survival outcomes of gastrointestinal malignancy patients and can be used as a risk stratification index for gastrointestinal malignancies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) values and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) are associated with the prognosis of various tumors. There is minimal evidence of those two as prognostic markers in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). In this study, we aimed to examine the predictive value of SIRI and tumor-infiltrating CD3+/CD4+/CD8+ T cells in the prognosis of patients who underwent partial or total laryngectomy. STUDY DESIGN A total of 78 patients with LSCC who underwent total or partial laryngectomy at the Eye, Ear, Nose, and Throat Hospital of Fudan University between 2013 and 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. METHODS The tumor tissues of 78 LSCC patients were retrospectively evaluated using immunohistochemical staining for CD3+ /CD4+ /CD8+ -cells. The overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) rates were recorded using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS Patients with high immunoscore (IS) (3-4) had prolonged survival (P < 0.001 for OS). High SIRI values were independently associated with poorer OS and DFS (P = 0.018 for OS; P = 0.016 for DFS). CD8+ TILs and SIRI values showed a- negative association (P < 0.01). Patients with low SIRI values and high IS had better 5-year OS and DFS than those with high SIRI values and low IS (P < 0.001 for OS; P = 0.0014 for DFS). Patients with 'hot' tumor had a higher 5-year OS than those with 'excluded' or 'cold' phenotype. CONCLUSIONS The SIRI values and the density of TILs may help predict LSCC patients' outcomes after surgery. The combination of SIRI and IS may be a new component of the tumor, nodes, and metastases (TNM) classification of cancer and prognostic factor for T-cell-target immunotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cervical cancer (CC) is one of the most common gynaecologic malignancies. The prognosis of stage IIIC1p cervical cancer patients treated by surgery is heterogeneous. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyse the factors influencing the prognosis in such patients. METHODS From January 2012 to December 2017, 102 patients with cervical cancer who underwent surgical treatment in the Department of Gynaecology and Tumours, Changzhou Maternal and Child Health Hospital, and had pelvic lymph node metastasis confirmed by pathology were analysed retrospectively. All patients underwent radical hysterectomy with/without oophorectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy with/without para-aortic lymphadenectomy. Clinical data was collected including age, surgical method, ovarian status, intraoperative blood loss, perioperative complications, tumour size, pathological type, depth of stromal invasion (DSI), whether the lymphatic vascular space was infiltrated, number of pelvic lymph node metastases, location of pelvic lymph node metastases, total number of lymph nodes resected, lymph node ratio (LNR), nature of vaginal margin, whether parametrium was involved, postoperative adjuvant therapy, preoperative neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and prognostic information of patients. Survival curves for overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were plotted using the Kaplan-Meier method, and the difference between the survival curves was tested using the log-rank test. Univariate and multivariate COX regression models were used to assess the factors associated with overall survival and disease-free survival in patients with stage IIIC1p cervical cancer. Nomogram plots were constructed to predict OS and DFS, and the predictive accuracy of the nomograms was measured by Harrell's C-index and calibration curves. RESULTS A total of 102 patients with stage IIIC1p cervical cancer were included in the study, and the median follow-up time was 63 months (range from 6 to 130 months). The 5-year OS was 64.7%, and the 5-year DFS was 62.7%. Multivariate analysis showed that no postoperative adjuvant therapy, LNR > 0.3 and NLR > 3.8 were independent risk factors for OS and DFS in patients with stage IIIC1p cervical cancer. CONCLUSIONS Patients with stage IIIC1p cervical cancer have a poor prognosis. Lower OS and DFS were associated with no postoperative adjuvant therapy, LNR > 0.3 and NLR > 3.8.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The treatment of superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SESCC) is mainly based on endoscopic and surgical procedures. For some patients, surgical treatment alone is associated with a poor prognosis. How to screen out patients with poor prognosis and give appropriate intervention is a challenge for clinicians. Therefore, it is very important to find more convenient and effective prognostic indicators for the survival of patients to guide further treatment.
AIM To evaluate the prognostic value of peripheral blood systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) in patients with SESCC.
METHODS The clinical, biochemical, and pathological data of 122 patients with SESCC were retrospectively analyzed. The optimal cut-off values of SIRI and PNI were determined using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. According to the optimal cut-off values of SIRI and PNI, the patients were divided into a low SIRI group and a high SIRI group, and a low PNI group and a high PNI group. The Kaplan-Meier (K-M) method was used for survival analysis, and the Log-rank method was used to evaluate the difference between groups. COX univariate and multivariate regression analyses were performed to determine the predictive factors for the prognosis of patients with SESCC.
RESULTS The overall survival time of patients in the low SIRI group was significantly longer than that of patients in the high SIRI group (P = 0.001). The overall survival time of patients in the high PNI group was significantly longer than that of patients in the low PNI group (P = 0.014). Preoperative SIRI and PNI were identified to be independent risk factors for the overall survival of patients with SESCC.
CONCLUSION Preoperative SIRI and PNI are simple and reliable biomarkers for predicting the prognosis of patients with SESCC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Neuroblastomas (NB) are among the most frequent childhood solid tumors. The link between inflammation and cancer is well understood. Many research studies have been conducted to determine the prognostic importance of inflammatory markers in cancer patients. C-reactive protein (CRP), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) are all potential inflammation indicators. The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of NLR and SII as inflammatory indicators in predicting NB patient survival. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with NB diagnosed between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2021 were studied retrospectively, and death was documented. By dividing the number of neutrophils by the number of lymphocytes, the NLR was obtained. The SII was calculated by multiplying the NLR by the platelet count. RESULTS  46 patients with NB were included in the study with a mean age of 57.58 months (4.14-170.05). When the patients were analyzed based on mortality the NLR and SII values were statistically significantly increased in the dead group (2.71 (1.22-4.1 ) vs. 1.7 (0.16-5.1); p=0.02; and 677.8 (215-1322) vs. 294.6 (69.49-799.1), respectively; p=0.012). Analysis of the receiver operating curve found that 328.49 is the ideal cutoff value for SII to predict mortality with a sensitivity of 83% and a specificity of 68% (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve = 0.814 (95% confidence interval: 0.671-0.956), p=0.005 ). Analyzing the influence of risk factors on survival using Cox regression analysis, SII was discovered as a significant predictor of survival in the study (HR =1.001, 95% CI =1-1.20; p=0.049). CONCLUSION  SII may be used to predict the overall survival of NB patients.

Preoperative systemic inflammation response index is an independent prognostic marker for BCG immunotherapy in patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Cancer Med 2023; 12:4206-4217. [PMID: 36214475 PMCID: PMC9972176 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.5284] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2022] [Revised: 08/26/2022] [Accepted: 09/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/09/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Systemic Inflammatory Response Index (SIRI) is a novel prognostic biomarker based on peripheral blood counts of neutrophils, monocytes, and lymphocytes. Recent evidence suggests that it is associated with poor prognosis in various cancers. However, the predictive value of the SIRI in non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) patients treated with intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) immunotherapy remains elusive. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the potential of SIRI as a prognostic factor in these patients. METHODS A total of 540 patients with NMIBC who underwent BCG immunotherapy following transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) were enrolled in this study. Using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and the Youden index, patients were divided into high and low SIRI groups based on the cutoff values. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent predictors of BCG non-response. Thereafter, propensity score matching (PSM) was used to eliminate bias due to confounding factors between the low and high SIRI groups. Finally, the Kaplan-Meier method was used to compare recurrence-free survival (RFS) and progression-free survival (PFS) between the two groups. RESULTS Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that high SIRI (p = 0.001), high MLR (p = 0.015), and high tumor pathological T stage (p = 0.015) were significantly correlated with non-response to BCG therapy. In addition, both RFS and PFS were shorter in the high SIRI group than in the other group before and after PSM (both p < 0.05). Collectively, our results indicate that the combination of tumor pathological T staging and the SIRI can enhance the predictive power of BCG response. CONCLUSION Pretreatment peripheral blood SIRI can be employed to predict the response to BCG immunotherapy and the prognosis of NMIBC patients. Taken together, the combination of T stage and SIRI demonstrated robust performance in predicting the response to BCG immunotherapy in NMIBC patients.

Clinical usefulness of the lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio and aggregate index of systemic inflammation in patients with esophageal cancer: a retrospective cohort study. Cancer Cell Int 2023; 23:13. [PMID: 36707809 PMCID: PMC9881346 DOI: 10.1186/s12935-023-02856-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2022] [Accepted: 01/21/2023] [Indexed: 01/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple perioperative inflammatory markers are considered important factors affecting the long-term survival of esophageal cancer (EC) patients. Hematological parameters, whether single or combined, have high predictive value. AIM To investigate the inflammatory status of patients with preoperative EC using blood inflammatory markers, and to establish and validate competing risk nomogram prediction models for overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in EC patients. METHODS A total of 508 EC patients who received radical surgery (RS) treatment in The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from August 5, 2013, to May 1, 2019, were enrolled and randomly divided into a training cohort (356 cases) and a validation cohort (152 cases). We performed least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO)-univariate Cox- multivariate Cox regression analyses to establish nomogram models. The index of concordance (C-index), time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, time-dependent area under curve (AUC) and calibration curves were used to evaluate the discrimination and calibration of the nomograms, and decision curve analysis (DCA) was used to evaluate the net benefit of the nomograms. The relative integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) and net reclassification improvement (NRI) were calculated to evaluate the improvement in predictive accuracy of our new model compared with the AJCC staging system and another traditional model. Finally, the relationship between systemic inflammatory response markers and prognostic survival was explored according to risk plot, time-dependent AUC, Kaplan-Meier and restricted cubic spline (RCS). RESULTS Based on the multivariate analysis for overall survival (OS) in the training cohort, nomograms with 10 variables, including the aggregate index of systemic inflammation (AISI) and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), were established. Time-dependent ROC, time-dependent AUC, calibration curves, and DCA showed that the 1-, 3-, and 5Â year OS and PFS probabilities predicted by the nomograms were consistent with the actual observations. The C-index, NRI, and IDI of the nomograms showed better performance than the AJCC staging system and another prediction model. Moreover, risk plot, time-dependent AUC, and Kaplan-Meier showed that higher AISI scores and lower LMR were associated with poorer prognosis, and there was a nonlinear relationship between them and survival risk. CONCLUSION AISI and LMR are easy to obtain, reproducible and minimally invasive prognostic tools that can be used as markers to guide the clinical treatment and prognosis of patients with EC.

The value of the Advanced Lung Cancer Inflammation Index (ALI) in assessing the prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma treated with camrelizumab: a retrospective cohort study. ANNALS OF TRANSLATIONAL MEDICINE 2022; 10:1233. [PMID: 36544677 PMCID: PMC9761123 DOI: 10.21037/atm-22-5099] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2022] [Accepted: 11/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022]
Abstract
Background The Advanced Lung Cancer Inflammation Index (ALI) is considered a useful prognostic biomarker for clinical outcome in patients with malignancy. However, the prognostic value of ALI in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is unclear. In this study we assessed the prognostic value of the ALI in patients with HCC treated with camrelizumab. Methods This retrospective study analyzed patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma treated with the ICI, camrelizumab alone or in combination at Henan Cancer Hospital from January 2017 to January 2020. Sixty-five patients were finally screened for at least 2 years of follow-up according to the inclusion criteria, with no significant differences in patient baseline data. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to determine the optimal cut-off point for the ALI which was compared to other clinical indicators for predicting survival. A Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportional analysis were conducted to examine the association between the ALI and patient prognosis. Results The median overall survival (OS) for the overall group of patients was 383 days, the area under the curve for ALI was 0.815 and the optimal cut-off value for predicting OS was 34.65. The median OS for patients with an ALI score ≤34.65 was 336 days and that for patients with an ALI score >34.65 was 524 days. The univariate analysis showed that the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) level, and the ALI score predicted OS. The multivariate analysis showed that the ALI score was an independent prognostic factor of OS in patients with advanced HCC who had been treated with immunotherapy [hazard ratio (HR) =0.285, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.097-0.833, P=0.022]. A nomogram that included ALI performed well relative to the prediction of prognosis after immunotherapy for patients with advanced liver cancer. Conclusions The ALI may be a new prognostic marker in patients with advanced HCC undergoing immunotherapy.

Evaluation of systemic inflammatory and nutritional indexes in locally advanced gastric cancer treated with adjuvant chemoradiotherapy after D2 dissection. Front Oncol 2022; 12:1040495. [PMID: 36387250 PMCID: PMC9648693 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.1040495] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2022] [Accepted: 10/17/2022] [Indexed: 10/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Many studies have shown that the peripheral blood inflammatory index and nutritional index, such as the platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR), neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lymphocyte monocyte ratio (LMR), systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), pan-immune-inflammation value (PIV), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), and prognostic nutrition index (PNI), are independent prognostic factors for tumors. The present study aimed to investigate the prognostic role of these peripheral blood indexes before treatment in locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC) treated with adjuvant chemoradiotherapy after D2 dissection. METHODS A total of 89 patients with LAGC who underwent D2 gastrectomy and adjuvant chemoradiotherapy at our hospital from 2010-2018 were eligible. Systemic inflammatory indicators before treatment were evaluated. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC), Kaplan-Meier analysis, and Cox regression were utilized for prognosis evaluation. RESULTS The median follow-up time was 29.1 (4.1-115.8) months. The overall survival at 3 years (OS) and the disease-free survival (DFS) were 78.9% and 59.1%, respectively. According to the ROC curve for 3-year DFS, the best cut-off values of pre-treatment NLR, PLR, LMR, SII, SIRI, PIV and PNI were 1.7, 109.3, 2.9, 369.2, 0.58, 218.7, and 48, respectively. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that NLR was an independent prognostic factor for DFS (HR 2.991, 95%CI 1.085-8.248, P = 0.034). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that a higher NLR (>1.70) was significantly associated with a poorer OS (3-year OS: 68.8% vs 92.9%, P = 0.045) and DFS (3-year DFS: 47.5% vs 80.9%, P = 0.005). In terms of the free locoregional recurrence rate (LRR), the prognosis of patients with high NLR was also significantly worse than those with low NLR (70.2% vs 96.0%, P = 0.017). Paraaortic lymph nodes were the most common site of LRR (7/14 patients). The seven cases of paraaortic lymph node metastasis occurred in patients with high NLR. CONCLUSIONS In our retrospective analysis, we found that pretreatment NLR could serve as a prognostic factor for survival in LAGC treated with adjuvant chemoradiotherapy after D2 dissection, especially for the prediction of LRR and paraaortic lymph node metastasis. Prospective studies are needed to confirm our findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, the incidence of types II and III adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) has shown an obvious upward trend worldwide. The prognostic prediction after radical resection of AEG has not been well established.
AIM To establish a prognostic model for AEG (types II and III) based on routine markers.
METHODS A total of 355 patients who underwent curative AEG at The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from January 2014 to June 2015 were retrospectively included in this study. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify the independent risk factors. A nomogram was constructed based on Cox proportional hazards models. The new score models was analyzed by C index and calibration curves. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to compare the predictive accuracy of the scoring system and tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage. Overall survival was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier curve amongst different risk AEG patients.
RESULTS Multivariate analysis showed that TNM stage (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.286, P = 0.008), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (HR = 2.979, P = 0.001), and body mass index (HR = 0.626, P = 0.026) were independent prognostic factors. The new scoring system had a higher concordance index (0.697), and the calibration curves of the nomogram were reliable. The area under the ROC curve of the new score model (3-year: 0.725, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.676-0.777; 5-year: 0.758, 95%CI: 0.708-0.807) was larger than that of TNM staging (3-year: 0.630, 95%CI: 0.585-0.684; 5-year: 0.665, 95%CI: 0.616-0.715).
CONCLUSION Based on the serum markers and other clinical indicators, we have developed a precise model to predict the prognosis of patients with AEG (types II and III). The new prognostic nomogram could effectively enhance the predictive value of the TNM staging system. This scoring system can be advantageous and helpful for surgeons and patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) have been proposed as peripheral blood biomarkers. We compared these blood biomarkers to identify the best predictor in patients with hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPSCC). METHODS We conducted a retrospective study on 304 patients with HPSCC. SIRI was divided into three groups using X-tile version 3.6.1. The optimal cut-off points for NLR, LMR, and PLR were selected through RStudio. We compared the prognostic capacity of SIRI with that of NLR, LMR, and PLR using receiver operating characteristic curves. RESULTS Smoking, cancer in the postcricoid region, lymph node metastasis (N+), extracapsular invasion, SIRI in the highest tertile (>2.80), and LMR in the lowest tertile (<5.0) may cause poor 5-year overall survival (OS) in patients with HPSCC. Local and distant recurrences may occur earlier in those with lymph node metastasis and a tumor invading beyond the mucosa layer. CONCLUSIONS SIRI was a better predictor of OS than LMR, PLR, and NLR in HPSCC patients. SIRI in the highest tertile (>2.80) and LMR in the lowest tertile (<5.0) may cause poor 5-year OS.

Abstract
Omalizumab has high treatment efficacy in patients with chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) who do not respond to high doses of antihistamines. Systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) were described as novel inflammatory and prognostic biomarkers. The present study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of SII and SIRI in patients with CSU who receive omalizumab therapy. A total of 124 patients with severe urticaria who had an Urticaria Activity Score over 7 days (UAS-7) ≥28 were included in the study. UAS-7, C-reactive protein (CRP), SII, and SIRI values ​​were recorded before and after omalizumab treatment. Patients with UAS-7 ≤ 6 at week 12 and/or week 24 of omalizumab treatment were considered responders. Three months after omalizumab treatment, significant decreases were observed in SII, SIRI, CRP, and UAS-7 compared to pre-treatment values ​​(p:0.003, p < 0.001, p:0.006, and p < 0.001, respectively). At the third and sixth months of treatment, baseline SII and SIRI levels of the omalizumab responder group were significantly higher than the non-responder group (p < 0.001). However, there was no difference in baseline CRP and UAS-7 levels between responders and non-responders (p˃0.05). After adjusting for confounding factors, only pre-treatment SII (OR: 1.002, 95% CI: 1.000-1.004, p: 0.036) and SIRI (OR: 4.334, 95% CI: 1.751-10.726, p:0.002) values were independently associated with response to omalizumab at 3 months in multivariate regression analysis. SII and SIRI could be effectively used to predict the response to omalizumab therapy. More comprehensive studies are needed to validate and elaborate on this relationship.

Abstract
Background Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most frequent and lethal brain tumor, which possesses highly malignant characteristics and predominates in elder patients. Systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) is a novel prognostic marker from peripheral blood, which is defined as neutrophil count × monocyte count/lymphocyte count. In the current research, we aim to explore the relationship between SIRI and newly diagnosed GBM underwent gross total resection (GTR). Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on consecutive newly diagnosed GBM patients underwent operation at West China Hospital from March 2015 to January 2019. X-tile software was used to determine the optimal cut-off values of SIRI, and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR). All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS software and R software. Propensity score matching (PSM) was conducted to adjust for imbalance of all potential confounding covariates. Results The current research included a total of 291 consecutive newly diagnosed GBM patients underwent gross total resection. Among them, 186 were male patients and 105 were female patients. In original cohort, only gender was evidently related to SIRI level. SIRI and NLR were independent prognostic indicators both in original cohort and PSM cohort. Prognostic models based on the independent prognostic factors were established, and prognostic capacity of Model SIRI was superior to Model NLR. Conclusion In the current research, SIRI was determined to be an independent prognostic indicator for GBM. And the prognostic predictive ability of SIRI was stronger than NLR.

Abstract
Background The systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), a novel and cost-effective serum biomarker, is associated with prognosis in patients with cancer. However, the prognostic value of the SIRI in cancer remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the potential role of the SIRI as a prognostic indicator in cancer. Methods Reports in which the prognostic value of the SIRI in cancer was evaluated were retrieved from electronic databases. The pooled hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated to evaluate the prognostic significance of the SIRI. The odds ratio (OR) was also calculated to explore the association between the SIRI and clinicopathological features. Results This study included 30 retrospective studies with 38 cohorts and 10Â 754 cases. The meta-analysis indicated that a high SIRI was associated with short overall survival (OS) (HR = 2.04, 95% CI = 1.82-2.29, P < .001) and disease-free survival (DFS)/recurrence-free survival (RFS)/progression-free survival (PFS) (HR = 2.08, 95% CI = 1.84-2.34, P < .001). Subgroup analysis showed that the prognostic value of the SIRI was significant in all kinds of cancer included. Moreover, the SIRI was significantly correlated with sex, tumor size, T stage, N stage, TNM stage, and lymphovascular invasion. Conclusion The pretreatment SIRI could be a promising universal prognostic indicator in cancer.

Pathol Oncol Res 2021; 27:1609811. [PMID: 34712105 PMCID: PMC8546636 DOI: 10.3389/pore.2021.1609811] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2021] [Accepted: 08/27/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Background: The preoperative systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), based on peripheral neutrophil (N), monocyte (M), and lymphocyte (L) counts, has shown mounting evidence as an effective prognostic indicator in some malignant tumors. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the prognostic significance of pre-treatment SIRI in gastric cancer patients who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). Methods: This retrospective study comprised 107 patients with advanced gastric cancer treated with NACT between July 2007 and September 2015 in our hospital. SIRI was calculated from peripheral venous blood samples obtained prior to treatment. The best cutoff value for SIRI by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was 1.2 (low SIRI <1.21, high SIRI ≥1.21). The clinical outcomes of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and compared using the log-rank test. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed by the Cox proportional hazards regression model. Results: The results demonstrated that the low SIRI group was statistically associated with gender, primary tumor site, white blood cell, neutrophil, and monocyte counts, NLR (neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio), MLR (monocyte to lymphocyte ratio), and PLR (platelet to lymphocyte ratio). The SIRI was predictive for DFS and OS by univariate and multivariate analysis; the low SIRI group had better median DFS and OS than the high SIRI group (median DFS 27.03 vs. 22.33 months, median OS 29.73 vs. 24.43 months). The DFS and OS in the low SIRI group were longer than the high SIRI group. Conclusions: SIRI may qualify as a useful, reliable, and convenient prognostic indicator in patients with advanced gastric cancer to help physicians to provide personalized prognostication for gastric cancer patients treated with NACT.

Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) and Monocyte-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (MLR) Predict Clinical Outcome in Patients with Stage IIB Cervical Cancer. JOURNAL OF ONCOLOGY 2021; 2021:2939162. [PMID: 34539781 PMCID: PMC8443385 DOI: 10.1155/2021/2939162] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2021] [Revised: 07/11/2021] [Accepted: 08/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
Introduction Stage IIB cervical cancer (CC) is an advanced stage CC with poor prognosis. Inflammatory response plays a crucial role in the development of CC, and systemic inflammatory indexes were related to the prognosis in several cancers. The objective of the study was to determine the prognostic value of platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), basophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (BLR), and systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) as inflammatory indexes in patients with stage IIB CC. Materials and Methods A retrospective study was performed in 260 patients with stage IIB CC. PLR, NLR, MLR, BLR, and SIRI were obtained from routine blood tests. Prognosis information of the patients was acquired from regular clinical follow-up. Recurrence and response to therapy were determined through electronic medical records (EMRs). Correlations of the inflammatory indexes with overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), recurrence, and response to therapy were analyzed using SPSS version 26.0 software. Results Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses suggested that NLR, MLR, and SIRI had better predictive value than PLR as well as BLR in the prognosis and recurrence risk. Both univariate and multivariate survival analyses showed that higher NLR and MLR were significantly associated with shorter OS as well as PFS, whereas SIRI was not an independent predictive factor of PFS. Chi-square test results revealed that increased NLR was significantly correlated with higher recurrence rate (P=0.046), and increased MLR showed significant correlation with elevated recurrence risk (P=0.002). Univariate and binary logistic regression analyses for response to therapy indicated that elevated NLR was associated with decreased complete remission (CR) rate (P=0.031), and the P value lost statistical significance while being adjusted by tumor size (P=0.108). Conclusions For patients with stage IIB CC, both NLR and MLR are independent prognostic factors as well as risk factors for recurrence; NLR serves as a potential marker for therapeutic response.

Abstract
Background Mounting evidence has shown that systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), a novel prognostic biomarker based on peripheral lymphocyte, neutrophil and monocyte counts, is associated with poor prognosis for several tumors. However, the prognostic value of SIRI in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) undergoing transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is elusive. Herein, we aimed to evaluate the correlation between SIRI and clinical outcomes in these patients. Methods A total of 194 consecutive patients who underwent TACE were included in this study. Patients were stratified into high and low SIRI groups based on the cut-off value using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Independent risk factors for tumor response were analyzed using forward stepwise logistic regression. A one-to-one propensity score matching (PSM) was conducted to compare progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) between low and high SIRI patients. The discriminatory power of the combination of number of tumors and SIRI in predicting initial TACE response was evaluated by ROC analysis. Results Patients were divided into high SIRI (> 0.88) and low SIRI (≤ 0.88) groups. High SIRI (p = 0.003) and more than three tumors (p = 0.002) were significantly related to poorer tumor response. Moreover, the low SIRI group had longer PFS and OS than the high SIRI group (both P < 0.05) before and after PSM. Combination of SIRI and number of tumors can improve the predictive ability to predict initial TACE response with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.678. Conclusion Pretreatment peripheral blood SIRI was found to be an independent predictor of tumor response and clinical outcomes in patients with HCC undergoing TACE. Patients with high SIRI may have a poor prognosis.

[PMID: 33966169 DOI: 10.1007/s10067-021-05762-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2020] [Revised: 04/02/2021] [Accepted: 05/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) and ischemic stroke (IS) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. METHODS Fifty-two RA patients with IS, who were admitted to Wujin Hospital Affiliated with Jiangsu University between 2015 and 2019, were selected as the study group, and 236 RA patients without IS were selected as the control group. Propensity score matching (PSM) function of SPSS 26.0 was used to carry out 1:1 propensity score matching for gender, age, blood pressure, blood glucose, blood lipid, and smoking history of patients in the two groups, and the caliper value was set as 0.02 to obtain covariate balanced samples between groups. When performing blood tests, the following are determined: rheumatoid factor (RF), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), mean platelet volume (MPV), calculated SIRI = (neutrophil × monocyte)/lymphocyte, and completed 28-joint disease activity score (DAS28-CRP). The differences in inflammatory markers between the two groups were compared, the independent risk factors were analyzed by logistic regression, and the auxiliary diagnostic value was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. RESULTS A total of 48 pairs of patients were successfully matched. SIRI in the study group was higher than that in the control group (p < 0.05), and the mean platelet volume (MPV) was lower in the study group than in the control group (p < 0.05). SIRI, DAS28-CRP (r = 0.508, p < 0.01), ESR (r = 0.359, p < 0.05), and CRP (r = 0.473, p < 0.01) were positively correlated. Logistic regression analysis showed that SIRI was an independent IS risk factor in RA patients (odds ratio, 1.30; 95% confidence interval, approximately 1.008-1.678). The optimal threshold for SIRI-assisted diagnosis of patients with RA and IS was 1.62, the area under the ROC curve was 0.721 (p < 0.01), sensitivity was 54.17%, and specificity was 83.33%. CONCLUSION SIRI was independently associated with the occurrence of ischemic stroke in patients with RA. Thus, RA patients with elevated SIRI should be closely monitored. Key points • RA patients with IS had fewer traditional risk factors such as hypertension and diabetes, while inflammatory indicators were significantly increased. • The SIRI have drawn attention in recent years as novel non-specific inflammatory markers. However, only a few studies have been conducted to investigate their value in RA. • This study completes the gaps in the research on the relationship between SIRI and the risk of IS occurrence in RA patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The new systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) constructed based on neutrophil, monocyte and lymphocyte counts in peripheral blood is considered to be related to the prognosis of a variety of tumours. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the prognostic value of the SIRI in operable breast cancer patients and establish a nomogram to predict the survival of breast cancer patients. METHODS A total of 949 patients with operable breast cancer were enrolled in the present study. RESULTS The overall survival (OS) of breast cancer patients with SIRI ⩽ 0.65 was significantly higher than that of breast cancer patients with SIRI > 0.65 (P< 0.001). A nomogram generated based on SIRI, grade and TNM stage and SIRI predicted the 5- and 10-year survival rates of breast cancer patients more accurately than TNM stage alone. In addition, the change in SIRI relative to baseline at 4 weeks after surgery was closely related to the survival of breast cancer patients. Compared with those with no SIRI changes (absolute value of variation < 25%), breast cancer patients with an increase in SIRI > 75% or 25-75% had worse OS (P< 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The SIRI before and after surgery is closely related to the prognosis of breast cancer patients.

Abstract
The systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) has been revealed to be closely related to the prognosis of a variety of tumors. Whether the dynamic change in SIRI before and after surgery can be used to judge the prognosis of patients after radical gastrectomy has not yet been studied. In this study, the predictive ability of preoperative SIRI and changes in SIRI before and after surgery for the survival rate of gastric cancer patients was evaluated in two independent cohorts. It was found that SIRI was closely related to TNM staging. The higher the TNM stage, the higher the proportion of patients with a high SIRI. However, SIRI was not related to any other clinicopathological parameters. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that a high SIRI was associated with poor prognosis in gastric cancer patients in the original cohort and in the validation cohort. SIRI, NLR, PLR, and MLR could be used to judge the prognosis of patients with operable gastric cancer. However, multivariate analysis suggested that only SIRI was an independent prognostic factor for patients with operable gastric cancer. In addition, the change in SIRI at 4 to 6 weeks after surgery compared with SIRI before surgery was closely related to the survival of gastric cancer patients. Compared with the unchanged group (absolute variation <50%), gastric cancer patients with a SIRI increase >50% had a worse OS, while patients with a SIRI decrease >50% had a better prognosis. In conclusion, SIRI can be used as a reliable index to evaluate the prognosis of patients with operable gastric cancer, and the dynamic change in SIRI before and after surgery is significantly related to the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) in malignancy based on existing evidence. METHODS We searched for relevant literature published in the electronic databases PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Embase before April 10, 2020. Hazard ratios (HR) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated and pooled to evaluate the relationship between SIRI and malignancy outcomes. RESULTS We included 14 articles, describing 6,035 patients. Our findings revealed that patients with high SIRI had worse overall survival (OS) (HR = 2.20, 95% CI: 1.85-2.62, P < .001), disease-free survival (DFS) (HR: 1.92, 95% CI: 1.49-2.48, P < .001), time-to-progression (TTP) (HR: 2.00, 95% CI: 1.55-2.58, P < .001), progression-free survival (PFS) (HR: 1.73, 95% CI: 1.38-2.16, P < .001), cancer-specific survival (CSS) (HR: 3.57, 95% CI: 2.25-5.68, P < 0.001), disease-specific survival (DSS) (HR: 1.99, 95% CI: 1.46 - 2.72, P < .001), and metastasis-free survival (MFS) (HR: 2.26, 95% CI: 1.28-3.99, P = .005) than patients with low SIRI. The correlation between SIRI and OS did not change in a subgroup analysis. Meta-regression indicated that heterogeneity may be related to differences in primary therapy strategies. Sensitivity analysis suggested that our results were reliable. CONCLUSIONS SIRI could be used as a useful predictor of poor prognosis during malignancy treatment.

Abstract
Introduction Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a common malignancy in China and known prognostic factors are limited. In this study, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), systemic immune inflammation index (SII), and systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) were evaluated as prognostic factors in locally advanced NPC patients. Materials and Methods NPC patients who received curative radiation or chemoradiation between January 2012 and December 2015 at the Second Xiangya Hospital were retrospectively reviewed, and a total of 516 patients were shortlisted. After propensity score matching (PSM), 417 patients were eventually enrolled. Laboratory and clinical data were collected from the patients' records. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was used to determine the optimal cut-off value. Survival curves were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. The Cox proportional hazard model was used to identify prognostic variables. Results After PSM, all basic characteristics between patients in the high SIRI group and low SIRI group were balanced except for sex (p=0.001) and clinical stage (p=0.036). Univariate analysis showed that NLR (p=0.001), PLR (p=0.008), SII (p=0.001), and SIRI (p<0.001) were prognostic factors for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). However, further multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that only SIRI was an independent predictor of PFS and OS (hazard ratio (HR):2.83; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.561-5.131; p=0.001, HR: 5.19; 95% CI: 2.588-10.406; p<0.001), respectively. Conclusion Our findings indicate that SIRI might be a promising predictive indicator of locally advanced NPC patients.

Abstract
Objective Systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) is a new inflammation-based evaluation system that has been reported for predicting survival in multiple tumors, but the prognostic significance of SIRI in cancers has not been evinced. Methods Eligible studies updated on December 31, 2019, were selected according to inclusion criteria, the literature searching was performed in PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and Cochrane. Hazard ratios (HRs), and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were extracted and pooled by using Stata/SE 14.1. Results 11 publications involving 19 cohort studies with a total of 5,605 subjects were included. Meta-analysis results evinced that high SIRI was associated with worse OS (HR = 2.30, 95% CI: 1.87-2.83, p ≤ 0.001), poor CSS/DSS (HR = 2.83, 95% CI: 1.98-4.04, p ≤ 0.001), and inferior MFS/DFS/PFS/RFS/TTP (HR = 1.88, 95% CI: 1.65-2.15, p ≤ 0.001). The association of SIRI with OS was not significantly affected when stratified by diverse confounding factors. It was suggested that tumor patients with high pretreatment SIRI levels would suffer from adverse outcomes. Conclusion High SIRI is associated with unfavorable clinical outcomes in human malignancies; pretreatment SIRI level might be a useful and promising predictive indicator of prognosis in cancers.

Abstract
It has been confirmed that the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) based on peripheral blood neutrophil, monocyte and lymphocyte counts can be used for the prognostication of patients with various malignant tumors. However, the prognostic value of SIRI in cervical cancer patients has not yet been reported. This study found that a higher SIRI was related to lymphovascular invasion and was also significantly associated with FIGO stage, radiotherapy, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and monocyte/lymphocyte ratio (MLR) but not related to other clinical and pathological parameters. According to the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, a high SIRI was associated with the poor prognosis of cervical cancer patients in the primary and validation groups. SIRI, NLR, PLR, and MLR can all be used to determine the prognosis of patients with operable cervical cancer. Moreover, it was confirmed that only SIRI was an independent prognostic factor for patients with operable cervical cancer. The same result was obtained in the propensity score matching (PSM) analysis. In the ROC curve analysis, SIRI was more accurate in predicting the prognosis of cervical cancer patients. Then, a nomogram was established based on SIRI, FIGO stage and lymphovascular invasion, which could determine the prognosis of cervical cancer patients more accurately than FIGO stage. The validation cohort showed the same results. In addition, the changes in SIRI relative to the baseline value at 4–8 weeks after surgery were closely related to the survival of cervical cancer patients. Compared with those with unchanged SIRI (absolute value of variation <25%), cervical cancer patients with an increase in SIRI > 75% had worse OS (P < 0.001), while patients with a decrease in SIRI > 75% had a better prognosis (P < 0.001). SIRI can serve as a new independent prognostic index and a potential marker for therapeutic response monitoring in patients with curable cervical cancer. Compared with the traditional FIGO staging system, the nomogram integrating SIRI can predict the survival of cervical cancer patients more objectively and reliably after radical surgery.

[PMID: 32280277 PMCID: PMC7132027 DOI: 10.2147/cmar.s245622] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2020] [Accepted: 03/18/2020] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose The prognostic significance of inflammation-based biomarkers for neuroblastoma (NB) has not been investigated before. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of pre-treatment inflammation biomarkers in children patients with NB. Patients and Methods Patients diagnosed with NB from 2008 to 2016 in our institution were enrolled in this study. The clinical data and survival outcomes were retrospectively reviewed. Inflammation biomarkers or scores including C-reactive protein (CRP), albumin (ALB), Glasgow Prognostic Score (GPS), modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS), high-sensitivity modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (Hs-mGPS), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) and system inflammation index (SII) were tested in this study. Univariate and multivariate survival analyses were performed to assess the prognostic value of these inflammation indicators for overall survival (OS) of children with NB. Kaplan–Meier survival curves were also conducted. Results A total of 70 children diagnosed with neuroblastoma were enrolled in this study. NLR, PLR, LMR and SII were found to be not predictive of OS for NB patients. However, CRP, ALB, GPS and CAR were significantly associated with OS of NB patients. Multivariate analysis adjusting for age, sex, histology, tumor size, tumor stage and metastasis revealed that ALB, CAR, GPS and Hs-mGPS were significantly associated with OS of NB patients. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) analyses revealed that Hs-mGPS is superior to other inflammation biomarkers in predicting OS of NB patients. Subgroup survival analysis for immature NB patients revealed similar results. Conclusion Hs-mGPS is an effective prognostic factor for OS of patients with NB and is promising to be used as a factor for risk stratification and an indicator for more aggressive therapy.
