[PMID: 35729523 PMCID: PMC9215007 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-022-09754-3] [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: 05/17/2021] [Accepted: 06/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Background In hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), pulmonary metastasis (PM) after hepatectomy is associated with poor clinical outcomes. The crucial phases of tumour cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and metastasis all entail platelet activation. In HCC, platelet distribution width (PDW) suggests platelet size changes and predicts a worse prognosis. The aim of this study was to assess the association between PDW and PMs in HCC patients receiving hepatectomy. Material/methods From January 2013 to December 2015, a cohort of patients who underwent hepatectomy for HCC at the Harbin Medical University Cancer Hospital in China were retrospectively evaluated. The relationship between PDW levels and clinical and demographic parameters was examined. To investigate the relationships between predicted factors and PM, a competing risk model was used. From January 2016 to December 2018, a validation cohort of 109 patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University was studied independently. Results In the primary cohort, 19 out of 214 patients had postoperative PMs. In HCC patients with PM, PDW levels were lower than in those without PM. There was a significant difference in the cumulative incidence of 2-year PM between the high-PDW and low-PDW groups after controlling for competing risk events (death prior to the development of PM) (p < 0.001). In addition, PDW was also found to be an independent predictor for PM in a multivariable competing risk analysis. The results were externally validated in another cohort. Conclusions In HCC, preoperative PDW is significantly associated with PM. PDW could be a biomarker for post-operative PM in HCC patients.

Preoperative Platelet Distribution Width Represents a Novel Prognostic Biomarker in Patients With Nonmetastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma: A Retrospective Clinical Analysis. Front Oncol 2022; 12:845028.

Abstract
Purpose The study aimed to explore the prognostic value of platelet distribution width (PDW) in patients with nonmetastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Methods We retrospective analyzed 706 patents with nonmetastatic RCC from January 2015 to December 2017. Clinicopathologic data and platelet indices were collected and analyzed by univariable and multivariable cox proportional hazard model. Progression-free survival (PFS) was analyzed using the Kaplan–Meier curve. Net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) were performed to evaluate the improvement of predictive accuracy. Results Patients were divided into low PDW (N = 241, PDW ≤11.7%), intermediate PDW (N = 232, 11.7%< PDW ≤15.6%), and high PDW (N = 233, PDW >15.6%) groups according to the tertiles. Patients with low PDW were associated with more symptoms at presentation, larger tumor size, higher AJCC tumor stage, and more sarcomatoid differentiation. Besides, patients with low PDW had significantly shorter PFS compared to intermediate PDW and high PDW groups. On the multivariable model, AJCC tumor stage, nuclear grade, and PDW (either continuous or categorical variables) were independent factors correlated with PFS. The NRI and IDI showed adding PDW to SSIGN score improves its predictive accuracy related to 2-, 3-, and 4-year PFS. Conclusions Low PDW was related to advanced clinicopathologic features and worse prognosis in patients with nonmetastatic RCC. Thus, PDW could serve as a novel biomarker for risk stratification in these patients when used pre-or postoperatively.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the prognostic value of preoperative platelet parameters in locally advanced renal cell carcinoma for the risk stratification of such patients. METHODS Clinical data of patients with locally advanced renal cell carcinoma in the Third Hospital of Peking University from January 2015 to December 2017 were collected. The patients were divided into progression group and progression-free group according to follow-up data, and preoperative platelet parameters and clinical data between the two groups were compared. The optimal cut-off value of platelet parameters was determined by receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) and analyzed by Kaplan-Meier survival curve. Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the independent risk factors of PFS. Time dependent ROC curve, net reclassification index (NRI), and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) were used to evaluate the improvement of SSIGN model by incorporating platelet parameters. RESULTS Of the 215 patients, 192 (89.3%) were followed up for a median of 36 months. Sixty-four patients (29.8%) had disease progression during the follow-up, and the median PFS was 46 months. In progression group, the platelet count (PLT) was higher [(250.72 ± 88.59)×109/L vs. (227.27 ± 66.94)×109/L, P=0.042] and the platelet distribution width (PDW) was lower [(12.01 ± 2.27)% vs. (13.31 ± 2.74)%, P = 0.001] than that of progression-free groups. 285×109 /L and 12.65% as the best cut-off values of PLT and PDW, the median PFS of PLT≤285×109 /L group was significantly longer than that of PLT>285×109 /L group (53 months vs. 41 months, P=0.033), and the median PFS of PDW>12.65% group was also significantly longer than that of PDW≤12.65% group (56 months vs. 41 months, P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that preoperative PDW (HR=0.735, P < 0.001), nuclear grade Ⅲ to Ⅳ (HR=2.425, P=0.001) and sarcomatoid differentiation (HR=3.101, P=0.008) were independent risk factors for PFS. The area under the curve of PDW combined with SSIGN model was larger than that with the original SSIGN model [0.748 (95%CI: 0.662-0.833) vs. 0.678 (95%CI: 0.583-0.773), P=0.193], NRI was 0.262 (P=0.04), and IDI was 0.085 (P=0.01), indicating that the predictive ability of PDW combined with SSIGN model was improved. CONCLUSION Preoperative high PLT and low PDW are associated with adverse prognosis of locally advanced renal cell carcinoma, and PDW is an independent risk factor. Therefore, preoperative PDW could serve as biomarker for risk stratification of locally advanced renal cell carcinoma.

Abstract
We conducted a retrospective study in 274 previously untreated advanced Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients to investigate the prognostic value of baseline platelet (PLT) count, platelet distribution width (PDW), mean platelet volume (MPV), and platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR). The median follow-up time was 89 (range 0.3-240) months. By univariate analysis, PLT/PDW <24.5, PLR ≥245, and MPV <8fl were all associated with worse freedom from progression (FFP), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). By multivariate analysis, PLT/PDW <24.5 was a risk factor for FFP (HR 2.02, p = 0.002) and PFS (HR 2.36, p < 0.001). PLR ≥245 was independently associated with inferior FFP (HR 2.04, p = 0.003) and PFS (HR 1.93, p = 0.002). Due to the limited number of death events, multivariate analysis was not conducted for OS. Propensity score matching analysis and subgroup analysis further validated the prognostic value for PLT/PDW and PLR. In conclusion, PLT/PDW and PLR are promising prognostic indicators for newly diagnosed advanced HL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type A acute aortic dissection (TAAAD) is a destructive cardiovascular disease, with high morbidity and mortality rates. Identifying the high-risk TAAAD patients at an early stage is urgently necessary. METHODS A retrospective study of 160 patients was carried out. The admission data were retrospectively gathered. Logistic regression analysis and receiver operator characteristic curve (AUC) was utilized. RESULTS Compared with the survivor group, the nonsurvivor group was older, had higher D-dimer levels, red blood cell distribution width (RDW) levels and platelet distribution width (PDW) levels, and lower fibrinogen levels, platelet levels and plateletcrit levels. Multivariate analysis displayed that four independent factors, age (hazard ratio (HR): 7.877, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.740-22.641, p < 0.001), D-dimer (HR: 3.791, 95% CI 1.520-9.452, p = 0.004), RDW (HR: 3.300, 95% CI 1.109-9.825, p = 0.032), PDW (HR: 3.755, 95% CI 1.436-9.815, p = 0.007) were incorporated into the model. The predict accuracy of the model (AUC 0.861, 95% CI 0.798-0.911, p < 0.001) was best. CONCLUSIONS Age, D-dimer, RDW and PDW are independent markers of in-hospital death in TAAAD patients and the newly established model has better performance in predicting high-risk patients. This model can be used as a quick screening tool to assess the prognosis of patients in individualizing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the most malignant gynecological cancers. Platelets play a profound role in cancer growth and metastasis. Platelet distribution width (PDW) is an indicator of platelet activation and is altered in malignancies. However, the prognostic value of PDW in OC remains unclear. This present study aimed to investigate the predictive significance of PDW in OC. METHODS 221 OC patients, between January 2013 and December 2013, were included in this study. The correlations between PDW and clinicopathological features were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression were used to evaluate the prognostic impact of PDW. RESULTS Of the 221 patients, increased PDW levels were observed in 163 (73.6%) patients. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that higher PDW levels were associated with poor progression-free survival and overall survival (both p< 0.001). Cox-regression analysis confirmed the independent predictive value of PDW on overall survival (HR = 2.820, 95% CI = 1.776-4.476, p< 0.001). CONCLUSION Higher PDW levels predict poor prognosis in patients with OC. Elevated PDW may be a novel target for therapy.
