Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to investigate the association between white blood cell count to hemoglobin ratio (WHR) and risk of in-hospital mortality in patients with lung cancer. METHODS In this retrospective cohort study, the medical records of patients with lung cancer were retrieved from the electronic ICU (eICU) Collaborative Research Database between 2014 and 2015. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. The secondary outcome was the length of stay in intensive care unit (ICU). The cut-off value for the WHR was calculated by the X-tile software. The Cox model was applied to assess the association between WHR and in-hospital mortality among patients with lung cancer and the linear regression model was used to investigate the association between WHR and length of ICU stay. Subgroup analyses of age (< 65 years or > = 65 years), Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) score (< 59 or > = 59), gender, ventilation (yes or no), and vasopressor (yes or no) in patients with lung cancer were conducted. RESULTS Of the 768 included patients with lung cancer, 153 patients (19.92%) died in the hospital. The median total follow-up time was 6.88 (4.17, 11.23) days. The optimal cut-off value for WHR was 1.4. ICU lung cancer patients with WHR > = 1.4 had a significantly higher risk of in-hospital mortality [Hazard ratio: (HR): 1.65, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.15 to 2.38, P = 0.007) and length of stay in ICU (HR: 0.63, 0.01, 95% CI: 1.24 to 0.045, P = 0.045). According to the subgroup analysis, WHR was found to be associated with in-hospital mortality in patients with higher APACHE score (HR: 1.60, 95% CI: 1.06 to 2.41, P = 0.024), in male patients (HR: 1.87, 95% CI: 1.15 to 3.04, P = 0.012), and in patients with the treatment of ventilation (HR: 2.33, 95% CI: 1.49 to 3.64, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION This study suggests the association between WHR and risk of in-hospital mortality in patients with lung cancer and length of stay, which indicates the importance of attention to WHR for patients with lung cancer.

Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14205106. [PMID: 36291889 PMCID: PMC9600995 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14205106] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2022] [Revised: 10/12/2022] [Accepted: 10/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the primary histological subtype of lung cancer with a markedly heterogeneous prognosis. Therefore, there is an urgent need to identify optimal prognostic biomarkers. We aimed to explore the value of the circadian miRNA (cmiRNA) pair in predicting prognosis and guiding the treatment of LUAD. We first retrieved circadian genes (Cgenes) from the CGDB database, based on which cmiRNAs were predicted using the miRDB and mirDIP databases. The sequencing data of Cgenes and cmiRNAs were retrieved from TCGA and GEO databases. Two random cmiRNAs were matched to a single cmiRNA pair. Finally, univariate Cox proportional hazard analysis, LASSO regression, and multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis were performed to develop a prognostic signature consisting of seven cmiRNA pairs. The signature exhibited good performance in predicting the overall and progression-free survival. Patients in the high-risk group also showed lower IC50 values for several common chemotherapy and targeted medicines. In addition, we constructed a cmiRNA–Cgenes network and performed a corresponding Gene Ontology and Gene Set enrichment analysis. In conclusion, the novel circadian-related miRNA pair signature could provide a precise prognostic evaluation with the potential capacity to guide individualized treatment regimens for LUAD.
