Ann Med Surg (Lond) 2024; 86:1590-1600. [PMID: 38463086 PMCID: PMC10923289 DOI: 10.1097/ms9.0000000000001817] [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: 11/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/31/2024] [Indexed: 03/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Playing an exemplary role, frailty have crucial effect on the preoperative evaluation of elderly patients. Previous studies have shown that frailty is associated with complications and mortality in patients with gastric cancer (GC). However, with the development of the concept of "patient-centered", the range of health-related outcomes is broad. The differences in relation between frailty and various adverse outcomes will be further explored. Method The PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wan Fang, and Chinese Biomedical Literature databases were searched for keywords, including frailty (such as frail) and gastric cancer (such as stomach neoplasms or stomach cancer or gastrectomy or gastric surgery). The search period is until August 2023. The included studies were observational or cohort studies with postoperative related adverse outcomes as primary or secondary outcome measures. Valid assessment tools were used. The Quality Assessment Tool for Observational Cohort and Cross-sectional Studies was used to assess methodological quality in the included literature. Result Fifteen studies were included, including 4 cross-sectional studies, 8 retrospective cohort studies, and 3 prospective cohort studies. Among them, 6 studies were rated as "Good" and 9 studies were rated as "Fair," indicating that the quality of the literature was high. Then, 10 frailty assessment tools were summarized and classified into two broad categories in accordance with frailty models. Results of the included studies indicated that frailty in elderly patients with GC was associated with postoperative complications, mortality, hospital days, readmissions, quality of life, non-home discharge, and admission to the intensive care unit. Conclusion This scoping review concludes that high levels of preoperative frailty increase the risk of adverse outcomes in elderly patients with GC. Frailty will be widely used in the future clinical evaluation of elderly gastric cancer patients, precise risk stratification should be implemented for patients, and frailty management should be implemented well to reduce the occurrence of adverse treatment outcomes.

[PMID: 38240829 DOI: 10.1007/s00520-024-08306-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2023] [Accepted: 01/04/2024] [Indexed: 01/23/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Previous studies reported inconsistent results on the prevalence and prognostic implications of frailty among older adults with gastric cancer. This systematic review synthesized available literature pertaining on this topic to establish the prevalence and unfavorable outcomes of frailty in older adults with gastric cancer. METHODS A comprehensive search was conducted across multiple English databases including PubMed, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, Embase, and Web of Science as well as Chinese databases, namely, CNKI, Wan Fang, and CBM, from inception to July 4, 2023, to identify potential studies. Data related to the incidence of frailty and its unfavorable outcomes in older adults with gastric cancer were extracted. RevMan5.3 and R 4.2.2 were used to evaluate pooled prevalence, hazard ratios (HR), and 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS This review comprehensively selected 13 studies, comprising 9 cohort studies and 4 cross-sectional studies, on 44,117 older adults diagnosed with gastric cancer. The incidence of frailty among older adults with gastric cancer ranged from 10 to 71%. The pooled prevalence of frailty was 29% (95% CI 0.21-0.39). Frailty was found to be associated with an elevated risk of postoperative complications (HR = 1.99, 95% CI 1.45-2.73), prolonged postoperative hospital stay (HR = 2.68, 95% CI 2.38-3.02), likelihood of readmission (HR = 3.28, 95% CI 1.77-6.08), and an increased mortality risk (HR = 1.60, 95% CI 1.36-1.90). CONCLUSIONS Frailty was associated with a poor prognosis in older adults with gastric cancer. Clinical medical staff should focus on the frailty of older adults with gastric cancer, conduct large-scale, multicenter, and prospective studies and early screening of patients, and provide guidance for the implementation of prevention and treatment strategies.

Impact of Frailty and Sarcopenia on Short- and Long-Term Outcomes in Elderly Patients Undergoing Radical Gastrectomy for Gastric Cancer. World J Surg 2023; 47:3250-3261. [PMID: 37777671 DOI: 10.1007/s00268-023-07200-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 09/09/2023] [Indexed: 10/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The impact of frailty and sarcopenia in patients with gastric cancer is unclear. This study aimed to comprehensively examine the impact of frailty and sarcopenia on the short- and long-term outcomes in elderly patients undergoing radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer. METHODS We retrospectively assessed 246 patients aged ≥ 65 years who underwent radical gastrectomy. Frailty and sarcopenia were assessed using the modified frailty index (mFI) and psoas muscle mass index (PMI), respectively. RESULTS There were 30 (12.2%) and 60 (24.4%) patients with High-mFI and Low-PMI, respectively. As the age increased, both sexes showed significant correlations with PMI and mFI (r = - 0.238, 0.322, P = 0.003 and 0.002, respectively). High-mFI and Low-PMI did not affect the short-term outcomes. However, High-mFI was an independent risk factor for non-home discharge (P = 0.004) and was a significant predictor of 3- and 5-year overall survival (OS) (HR = 2.76 and 2.26; P = 0.002 and 0.005, respectively) and 1-, 3- and 5-year non-cancer-specific survival (non-CSS) (HR = 4.88, 8.05, and 4.01; P = 0.017, < 0.001, < 0.001, respectively). Low-PMI was a significant predictor of only 5-year OS (HR = 2.03, P = 0.003) and non-CSS (HR = 2.10, P = 0.020). CONCLUSIONS Frailty is significant predictor of non-home discharge and 1-, 3-, 5-year OS and 3- and 5-year non-CSS. Sarcopenia is a significant predictor of 5-year OS and non-CSS. Preoperative assessment of both frailty and sarcopenia can help surgeons to select adequate treatment strategies for the elderly population.

Medicine (Baltimore) 2023; 102:e36065. [PMID: 37986354 PMCID: PMC10659737 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000036065] [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: 08/15/2023] [Revised: 09/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/20/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023] Open
Abstract
The 5-factor modified frailty index (mFI-5) evaluates frailty based on variables including functional status, diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, congestive heart failure, and hypertension requiring medication. Despite its effectiveness in predicting surgical risk, the potential of mFI-5 as a predictor of long-term survival in patients with gastric cancer (GC) has not been investigated. This study aims to assess the prognostic significance of mFI-5 in patients with GC who have undergone curative-intent gastric resection. Among the 494 patients diagnosed with stage I to III GC, multivariate analysis revealed that age, tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage, geriatric nutritional risk index, mFI-5, and the type of gastrectomy were significant predictors for both overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). We assessed 3 models: Baseline model (BM, TNM stage only), interim model (IM, all significant variables except mFI-5), and full model (FM, all significant variables including mFI-5). FM outperformed BM for OS (C-index 0.818 vs 0.683; P < .001) and DFS (C-index 0.805 vs 0.687; P < .001). Similarly, IM outperformed BM for OS (C-index 0.811 vs 0.683; P < .001) and DFS (C-index 0.797 vs 0.687; P < .001). Multiple metrics consistently supported the improved discriminative capacity of FM and IM compared to BM. However, while FM exhibits enhanced predictive capacity over IM, this improvement lacks statistical significance across key metrics. In conclusion, our study highlights the clinical significance of the mFI-5, along with age, TNM stage, geriatric nutritional risk index, and type of gastrectomy, as valuable predictors of long-term survival in GC patients. The FM consistently demonstrates enhanced predictive accuracy compared to the BM. However, it is important to note that while the FM improves predictive power over the IM, this enhancement does not achieve statistical significance across multiple metrics. These findings collectively emphasize the potential clinical value of the FM as a robust tool for surgeons in predicting long-term survival outcomes before surgery in patients with GC.

Abstract
Background Frailty as a common geriatric syndrome can affect the clinical outcomes in patients with gastric cancer. However, the impact of frailty on survival and readmission patients with gastric cancer has not been well-characterised. Objectives To investigate the impact of frailty on survival and readmission in patients with gastric cancer undergoing gastrectomy by conducting a meta-analysis. Methods Eligible studies were identified by searching the PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases until 2 September 2022. Observational studies that evaluated the value of frailty in predicting adverse outcomes in gastric cancer patients undergoing gastrectomy were included. The outcomes of interest were overall survival, disease-specific survival (death from gastric cancer), and readmission. Adjusted hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were pooled to calculate the association of frailty with adverse outcomes. Results Eight studies reported on nine articles with 2,792 patients with gastric cancer were included. A fixed-effect meta-analysis indicated that frailty was associated with a reduced in-hospital overall survival (HR 2.08; 95% CI 1.46–2.95), long-term overall survival (HR 1.84; 95% CI 1.37–2.47), and disease-specific survival (HR 1.94; 95% CI 1.34–2.83). In addition, frailty was associated with increased risk of readmission within 1 year (HR 3.63; 95% CI 1.87–7.06). Conclusions Frailty was associated with a reduced overall survival and disease-specific survival and an increased risk of readmission in patients with gastric cancer undergoing gastrectomy. Frail status may play an important role in the risk stratification of gastric cancer after gastrectomy.
