Abstract
Background: To investigate the predictive value of preoperative peripheral blood inflammatory markers for surgical site infection (SSI) in laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer, categorized into SSI and non-SSI groups based on postoperative SSI occurrences. Patient demographics, surgical details, laboratory results, and SSI incidence data were extracted. Differences in indicators, including neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), and platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), were assessed between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression was utilized to determine the independent association of each indicator with SSI. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve analysis was utilized to evaluate the predictive value of parameters. Results: Of 169 patients, 36 (21.30%) experienced SSI postoperatively. The SSI group exhibited higher preoperative NLR and SII (p < 0.05). After adjusting for variables, preoperative NLR (OR = 1.691, 95% CI: 1.211-2.417, p = 0.003) and SII (OR = 1.001, 95% CI: 1.000-1.002, p = 0.006) were identified as independent risk factors for SSI. Both NLR (AUC = 0.758, 95% CI: 0.666-0.850) and SII (AUC = 0.753, 95% CI: 0.660-0.850) demonstrated favorable diagnostic performance for predicting postoperative SSI. Conclusion: Preoperative NLR and SII significantly associate with postoperative SSI in laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer, making them valuable indicators for early prediction of SSI.

Front Surg 2021; 8:745748. [PMID: 34869556 PMCID: PMC8635013 DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2021.745748] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2021] [Accepted: 10/12/2021] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Gastric cancer is the fifth most commonly diagnosed tumor and is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related mortality, worldwide. Due to the low rate of early diagnosis, approximately two-thirds of patients are first diagnosed at an advanced stage. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is recommended for patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC). The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), a combined inflammatory and immunogenic factor, has been universally used for predicting outcomes in AGC patients. Given that NLR is a dynamic process, in this study, we investigated the value of NLR change for the prediction of chemotherapeutic responses and prognosis in patients with AGC. Methods: We retrospectively enrolled 111 patients with AGC who underwent NAC following curative surgery. Patients were divided into two groups according to the NLR change after chemotherapy into the increased and decreased groups. Outcome measures were overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). Univariate was calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. Multivariate analysis was performed using the Cox proportional hazards regression model. Results: Post-chemotherapy, NLR increased in 36 patients and decreased in 75 patients. After a median follow-up time of 19 months, six patients developed local recurrence, 23 developed distant recurrence, and 34 died. Patients with reduced post-chemotherapy NLR showed significantly longer OS (p < 0.001) and DFS (p < 0.001). A decrease in the NLR after NAC was an independent indicator associated with better OS (p < 0.001) and DFS (p < 0.001). Conclusions: In patients with AGC, a decrease in NLR after NAC indicated better survival. NLR change could serve as a robust indicator for the efficiency of NAC and prognostic prediction in patients with AGC.

Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte, Platelet-to-Lymphocyte Ratios, and Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index as Potential Biomarkers of Chronic Inflammation in Patients with Newly Diagnosed Acromegaly: A Single-Centre Study. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10173997. [PMID: 34501445 PMCID: PMC8432467 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10173997] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2021] [Revised: 08/26/2021] [Accepted: 08/31/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Acromegaly is a rare disease caused by overproduction of growth hormone (GH) by a pituitary adenoma, and consequently increased insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) concentration. The GH/IGF-1 axis and immune cells interactions are hypothesized to be involved in subclinical inflammation. This retrospective study aimed to investigate the differences in neutrophil-to-lymphocyte (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte (PLR) ratios, and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) in GH-secreting adenomas compared with non-functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPAs) concerning clinical and radiological findings. After evaluation of 665 patients with pituitary tumors, 62 individuals with newly diagnosed acromegaly and 134 with NFPAs were enrolled in the analysis. The control group consisted of 120 healthy individuals. Fifty-eight patients with acromegaly were re-evaluated after medical or surgical therapies. NLR, PLR, SII values, and neutrophil count were significantly higher (p ≤ 0.001), whereas lymphocyte count was lower in acromegaly than in NFPAs (p = 0.001). No significant differences between NFPAs and controls were observed in analyzed ratios. Higher preoperative NLR, PLR, SII values were found in patients who failed to achieve a cure with surgery (p < 0.05). Although NLR, PLR, and SII values were significantly higher in acromegaly, these indices cannot be used to discriminate GH-secreting pituitary tumors from NFPAs. Treatment of acromegaly decreased the value of NLR and SII, but it requires further studies to consolidate the real clinical role of these inflammation-related ratios.

Abstract
Objective The prognostic value of postoperative parameters reflecting the inflammatory and nutritional status of patients undergoing cancer surgery has been rarely studied. This study investigated the prognostic value of inflammatory and nutritional parameters measured preoperatively and 1 month after curative gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Methods Data from a prospectively maintained database of 1,194 patients with gastric cancer who underwent curative surgery in 2009–2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Demographics, clinicopathologic characteristics, operative data, survival data, and laboratory parameters were extracted. Neutrophil counts, lymphocyte counts, and albumin levels before surgery and 1 month postoperatively were analyzed. Results In multivariable analysis adjusted for age, sex, and pathologic stage, high neutrophil count (hazard ratio [HR] 1.09, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.01–1.17, p = 0.022) and low albumin (HR 0.45, 95% CI 0.27–0.74, p = 0.002) 1 month postoperatively were independent prognostic factors for overall survival. High neutrophil count (HR 1.09, 95% CI 1.02–1.16, p = 0.015) 1 month postoperatively was also an independent prognostic factor for recurrence-free survival after adjusting for age, sex, body mass index, extent of gastrectomy, and pathologic stage. Patients were classified into risk groups based on thresholds of 4.2 × 103 cells/mm3 and 4.1 g/dl for 1-month neutrophil count and albumin. High-risk groups had a significantly worse prognosis than low-risk groups for overall survival (HR 5.87, 95% CI 3.28–10.51, p <0.001) and recurrence-free survival (HR 1.52, 95% CI 1.07–2.16, p = 0.021). Conclusions Neutrophil count and albumin level 1 month after curative surgery reflect long-term prognosis better than preoperative values. These parameters can be used to stratify patients with the same stage into different prognostic groups.
