Kochar B, Jylhävä J, Söderling J, Ritchie CS, Ludvigsson JF, Khalili H, Olén O. Prevalence and Implications of Frailty in Older Adults With Incident Inflammatory Bowel Diseases: A Nationwide Cohort Study. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol 2022; 20:2358-2365.e11. [PMID: 34999206 PMCID: PMC9294971 DOI: 10.1016/j.cgh.2022.01.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2021] [Revised: 12/20/2021] [Accepted: 01/02/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS We aimed to compare the risk of frailty in older adults with incident inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and matched non-IBD comparators and assess the association between frailty and future hospitalizations and mortality. METHODS In a cohort of patients with incident IBD ≥60 years of age from 2007 to 2016 in Sweden identified using nationwide registers, we defined frailty using Hospital Frailty Risk Score. We compared prevalence of frailty in patients with IBD with age, sex, place of residency- and calendar year-matched population comparators. In the IBD cohort, we used Cox proportional hazards modeling to examine the associations between frailty risk and hospitalizations or mortality. RESULTS We identified 10,590 patients with IBD, 52% female with a mean age of 71 years of age, matched to 103,398 population-based comparators. Among patients with IBD, 39% had no risk for frailty, 49% had low risk for frailty, and 12% had higher risk for frailty. Mean Hospital Frailty Risk Score was 1.9 in IBD and 0.9 in matched comparators (P < .01). Older adults with IBD at higher risk for frailty had a 20% greater risk for mortality at 3 years compared with those who were not frail. Compared with nonfrail older patients with IBD, patients at higher risk for frailty had increased mortality (hazard ratio [HR], 3.22, 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.86-3.61), all-cause hospitalization (HR, 2.42; 95% CI, 2.24-2.61), and IBD-related hospitalization (HR, 1.50; 95% CI, 1.35-1.66). These associations were not attenuated after adjusting for comorbidities. CONCLUSIONS Frailty is more prevalent in older adults with IBD than in matched comparators. Among older patients with IBD, frailty is associated with increased risk for hospitalizations and mortality.

Abstract
Background Site-specific postoperative risk models for localized upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) are unavailable. Objective To create specific risk models for renal pelvic urothelial carcinoma (RPUC) and ureteral urothelial carcinoma (UUC), and to compare the predictive accuracy with the overall UTUC risk model. Design, setting, and participants A multi-institutional database retrospective study of 1917 UTUC patients who underwent radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) between 2000 and 2018 was conducted. Outcome measurements and statistical analysis A multivariate hazard model was used to identify the prognostic factors for extraurinary tract recurrence (EUTR), cancer-specific death (CSD), and intravesical recurrence (IVR) after RNU. Patients were stratified into low-, intermediate-, high-, and highest-risk groups. External validation was performed to estimate a concordance index of the created risk models. We investigated whether our risk models could aid decision-making regarding adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) after RNU. Results and limitations The UTUC risk models could stratify the risk of cumulative incidence of three endpoints. The RPUC- and UUC-specific risk models showed better stratification than the overall UTUC risk model for all the three endpoints, EUTR, CSD, and IVR (RPUC: concordance index, 0.719 vs 0.770, 0.714 vs 0.794, and 0.538 vs 0.569, respectively; UUC: 0.716 vs 0.767, 0.766 vs 0.809, and 0.553 vs 0.594, respectively). The UUC-specific risk model can identify the high- and highest-risk patients likely to benefit from AC after RNU. A major limitation was the potential selection bias owing to the retrospective nature of this study. Conclusions We recommend using site-specific risk models instead of the overall UTUC risk model for better risk stratification and decision-making for AC after RNU. Patient summary Upper tract urothelial carcinoma comprises renal pelvic and ureteral carcinomas. We recommend using site-specific risk models instead of the overall upper tract urothelial carcinoma risk model in risk prediction and decision-making for adjuvant therapy after radical surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of older adults with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) is increasing. Frailty is an important predictor of outcomes in many chronic disease states. The implications of frailty have not been well-delineated in IBD. AIMS To report the prevalence of a frailty-associated diagnosis and determine the association between frailty and mortality in a cohort of IBD patients. METHODS In a cohort of 11 001 IBD patients, we applied a validated definition of frailty using International Classification of Disease codes. We compared frail IBD patients to those without a frailty-related code ("fit"). We constructed multivariable logistic regression models adjusting for clinically pertinent confounders (age, gender, race, IBD type, follow-up, IBD-related surgery, ≥1 comorbidity in the Charlson comorbidity index [CCI], and immunosuppression use) to determine whether frailty predicts mortality. RESULTS A total of 675 (6%) IBD patients had a frailty-related diagnosis. The prevalence of frailty increased with age, rising from 4% in 20-29 year olds to 25% in patients 90 years or older. The most prevalent frailty diagnosis was protein-energy malnutrition. The strongest predictors of frailty were non-IBD comorbidity, all-cause and IBD-related, hospitalisations. Frailty remained independently associated with mortality after adjusting for age, sex, duration of follow-up, comorbidity, need for IBD-related surgery and immunosuppression (OR: 2.90, 95% CI: 2.29-3.68). CONCLUSIONS Frailty is prevalent in IBD patients and increases with age. Frailty nearly triples the odds of mortality for IBD patients. Risk stratifying patients by frailty may improve outcomes.

Abstract
Background: To investigate the potential prognostic role of serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in patients with urothelial carcinoma (UC) using the method of systematic review and meta-analysis. Materials and Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science for eligible studies up to February 2020. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to estimate the relationship. Results: A total of 14 studies including 4,009 patients with UC were incorporated. The results showed that a high pretreatment serum LDH was associated with an inferior overall survival (OS, HR 1.61, 95% CI 1.39–1.87, p < 0.001), cancer-specific survival (CSS, HR 1.41, 95% CI 1.05–1.90, p = 0.022), and disease-free survival (DFS, HR 1.64, 95% CI 1.04–2.59, p = 0.034) in UC. Subgroup analyses identified that a high pretreatment serum LDH was associated with a poor OS (HR 1.97, 95% CI 1.02–3.81, p = 0.042) and DFS (HR 1.64, 95% CI 1.04–2.59, p = 0.034) in upper tract urothelial carcinoma, a short OS (HR 1.71, 95% CI 1.37–2.15, p < 0.001) in urothelial carcinoma of bladder. Conclusion: Our findings indicated that a high level of pretreatment serum LDH was associated with inferior OS, CSS, and DFS in patients with UC. This biomarker can be an important factor incorporated into the prognostic models for UC.

Adjuvant chemotherapy improves overall survival in patients with localized upper tract urothelial carcinoma harboring pathologic vascular invasion: a propensity score-matched analysis of multi-institutional cohort. World J Urol 2020; 38:3183-3190.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Whether adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) for patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) offers survival benefit is still controversial. To explore the impact of AC on overall survival (OS) of cN0M0 UTUC patients, we conducted a propensity score-matched analysis using the regression model, including pathologic features such as lymphatic and vascular invasion. METHODS A multi-institutional cohort of 413 UTUC patient record was used. Propensity score matching was performed to reduce bias by potential confounding factors for survival, including pathologic features from the specimen of radical nephroureterectomy (RNU), RESULTS: Ninety-eight patients were identified as pair-matched groups (49 patients in RNU and 49 patients in RNU + AC). Kaplan-Meier curves demonstrated that a 5-year OS rate of 72.7% for patients treated with RNU + AC was significantly higher than 51.6% for those treated with RNU (p = 0.0156). On multivariate analysis, pathologic vascular invasion (HR 3.41, 95% CI 1.24-10.66, p = 0.0166) and administration of AC (HR 0.45, 95% CI 0.19-0.98, p = 0.0438) still remained as the significant predictors for OS. In patients with pathologic vascular invasion (51 of 98 patients), a significantly longer OS in RNU + AC groups was observed (median OS of 30 and 70 months in RNU and RNU + AC groups, respectively: p = 0.0432), whereas there was no significant difference in the OS between RNU (median OS: not reached) and RNU + AC (median OS: not reached) groups in patients without the invasion (p = 0.4549). CONCLUSION The result indicates a significant benefit for OS by the administration of AC, and pathologic vascular invasion in the specimen of RNU could help the patient selection to better predict the effect of AC.
