Abstract
Background: Many studies explored the prognostic value of the modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS) in urothelial carcinoma (UC), but the results are controversial. This study aimed to quantify the relationship between pretreatment mGPS and survival in patients with UC. Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted using Embase, PubMed, and Web of Science to identify eligible studies published before August 2022. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the association between pretreatment mGPS and the prognosis of UC. Results: Thirteen eligible studies involving 12,524 patients were included. A high mGPS was significantly associated with poor overall survival (mGPS 1/0: HR = 1.33, 95% CI 1.12−1.58, p = 0.001; mGPS 2/0: HR = 2.02, 95% CI 1.43−2.84, p < 0.0001), progression-free survival (mGPS 1/0: HR = 1.26, 95% CI 1.03−1.53, p = 0.021; mGPS 2/0: HR = 1.76, 95% CI 1.12−2.77, p = 0.013), recurrence-free survival (mGPS 1/0: HR = 1.36, 95% CI 1.18−1.56, p < 0.0001; mGPS 2/0: HR = 1.70, 95% CI 1.44−2.000, p < 0.0001), and cancer-specific survival (mGPS 2/0: HR = 1.81, 95% CI 1.30−2.52, p < 0.0001). A subgroup analysis of OS also yielded similar results. Conclusions: Evidence suggests that high pretreatment mGPS in UC is closely related to poor survival. Pre-treatment mGPS is a powerful independent prognostic factor in patients with UC.

Abstract
The symposium "New criteria of resectability for pancreatic cancer" was held during the 33nd meeting of the Japanese Society of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery (JSHBPS) in 2021 to discuss the potential modifications that could be made in the current resectability classification. The meeting focused on setting the foundation for developing a new prognosis-based resectability classification that is based on the tumor biology and the response to neoadjuvant treatment (NAT). The symposium included selected experts from Western and Eastern high-volume centers who have discussed their concept of resectability status through published literature. During the symposium, presenters reported new resectability classifications from their respective institutions based on tumor biology, conditional status, pathology, and genetics, in addition to anatomical tumor involvement. Interestingly, experts from all the centers reached the agreement that anatomy alone is insufficient to define resectability in the current era of effective NAT. On behalf of the JSHBPS, we would like to summarize the content of the conference in this position paper. We also invite global experts as internal reviewers of this paper for intercontinental cooperation in creating an up-to-date, prognosis-based resectability classification that reflects the trends of contemporary clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM We investigated the clinical efficacy of inflammation-based indexes in predicting unfavourable relapse-free survival (RFS) in patients with stage II/III colorectal cancer (CRC) receiving oxaliplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed on 45 patients who underwent curative resection for stage II/III CRC followed by oxaliplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy after 8 weeks. Upon adjuvant chemotherapy initiation, all patients were evaluated for lymphocyte count (LC), neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lymphocyte/monocyte ratio (LMR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS) and prognostic nutritional index (PNI), after which their correlation with relapse was analysed. RESULTS Univariate analysis identified LC <1,350/mm 3 , NLR ≥2.03, LMR <5.15, PLR ≥209, mGPS 2, and early discontinuation of chemotherapy within two months as significant risk factors for RFS. Multivariate analysis identified LMR <5.15, PLR > 209 and mGPS 2 as significant independent risk factors for unfavourable RFS. CONCLUSION Measurement of LMR, PLR, and mGPS upon adjuvant therapy initiation can be a useful tool for predicting recurrence after curative surgery for stage II/III CRC.

Abstract
In this study, we evaluated the prognostic value of inflammation-based prognostic scores in patients undergoing curative surgery for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). A retrospective analysis was conducted for 914 patients undergoing curative surgical resection for PDAC between January 2011 and April 2016. Inflammation-based scores of modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, and platelet-lymphocyte ratio were assessed. mGPS was classified as high (1 or 2) or low (0). Median age was 63 (range, 33–88) years; 538 patients (58.9%) were male. A high mGPS was independently associated with poor overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) (median OS: 25.4 months vs. 20.4 months, p = 0.001; median DFS: 11.6 months vs. 9.3 months, p = 0.002), poor OS in patients with TNM stage I PDAC (44 months vs. 24.8 months, p = 0.001), and poor OS and DFS in patients with tumors located at the pancreatic head or uncinate process (OS: 25.4 months vs. 20.4 months; p = 0.007, DFS: 11.4 months vs. 8.87 months; p = 0.005). Preoperative mGPS was a significant prognostic factor for PDAC after curative resection; thus, mGPS can be a useful prognostic predictive factor in patients with TNM stage I PDAC, especially for tumors located at the head and uncinate.

Abstract
In this study, we evaluated the association of modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS) with prognosis in pancreatic cancer (PC) by performing a meta-analysis. Potentially eligible studies were shortlisted by searching PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, and the Cochrane Library. A total of 4,629 patients with PC from 25 studies were finally included in this meta-analysis. Meta-analyses were performed using a random-effects model or fixed-effect model according to heterogeneity. We pooled the hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) to estimate the association between mGPS and overall survival (OS). The results showed that elevated mGPS correlated with poor OS in patients with PC (HR=1.92, 95% CI=1.60–2.30, p<0.002). In addition, subgroup analysis indicated that increased mGPS remained a significant prognostic factor irrespective of the study design, region, disease status, treatment, survival analysis, cancer type, study center, or the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) score (all p<0.05). There was a significant correlation between higher mGPS and male gender (Odds ratio [OR]=1.30, 95% CI=1.01–1.67, p=0.038). Elevated pretreatment mGPS is a marker of poor prognosis in patients with PC. As an easily available and cost-effective inflammatory parameter, mGPS can serve as a promising tool for prognostication in PC.

Objective To investigate the predictive accuracies of the modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) as prognostic factors for patients with hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HSCC). Study Design Retrospective study. Setting University hospital. Methods The records of 106 patients who were histologically diagnosed with HSCC between January 2007 and December 2017 were reviewed. mGPS, NLR, and PLR were analyzed; univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to evaluate the prognosis of overall survival (OS). Results The overall 5-year survival rates of patients with mGPS0, mGPS1, and mGPS2 were 82.0%, 41.9%, and 13.5%, respectively. The overall 5-year survival rates of patients with low and high NLRs and with low and high PLRs were 83.8%, 46.2%, 57.0%, and 59.1%, respectively. mGPS (P < .001) and NLR (P < .05) were independently associated with OS, whereas PLR was not. For stage IV HSCC, only mGPS was independently associated with OS (P = .004). Conclusion mGPS is an excellent prognostic factor for patients with HSCC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Anastomotic leakage (AL) is one of the most devastating complications of rectal cancer surgery. Not only does AL result in reduced quality of life, extended hospitalization and impaired defecatory function, it also has a high local recurrence rate. In this study, we investigated risk factors for AL as it may help to decrease its occurrence and improve patient outcomes. METHODS This study was a retrospective, single-institution study of rectal cancer patients who underwent elective low anterior resection between April 2002 and February 2018 at Fukushima Medical University Hospital. Patients were divided into two groups according to the presence of AL. Patient-, tumor-, and surgery-related variables were examined using univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS One hundred sixty-one patients, average age 63.5±11.5 years, were enrolled in the study. The overall AL rate was 6.8% (11/161). In the univariate analysis, modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS)=2 (p=0.003), use of multiple staplers (≥3 firings) for rectal transection (p=0.001) and intraoperative bleeding (≥250 g) were significantly associated with AL incidence. Multivariate analysis identified that mGPS = 2 (odds ratio [OR]: 19.6, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.96-125.00, p=0.002) and multiple firings (OR: 18.19, CI: 2.31-111.11, p=0.002) were independent risk factors for AL. CONCLUSION Higher mGPS score and multiple firings were independent risk factors for AL.

Abstract
The prognostic importance of SIR in patients with cancer is widely recognised. More recently it has become clear that the systemic inflammatory response is an important etiologic factor in the development of cancer cachexia. Two recent meta-analysis carried out in 2017 and 2018 were interrogated and the number of patients with specific cancer types were identified. The percentage of patients with operable cancer (n>28,000) who were systemically inflamed varied from 21% to 38%. The percentage of patients with inoperable cancer (n>12,000) who were systemically inflamed varied from 29% to 79%. Overall, the percentage of patients (n>40,000) who were systemically inflamed varied from 28% to 63% according to tumour type. The most commonly studied cancer was colorectal cancer (n∼10,000 patients) and 40% were systemically inflamed.

Abstract
Objectives. Although the modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS) has been reported to have prognostic value in patients with various cancers, the association between mGPS and prognosis in patients with heart diseases have not been well studied. The aim of this study was to evaluate the predictive value of mGPS in outcomes of patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Design. We prospectively followed consecutive adult patients with HFpEF admitted to the cardiology outpatient unit. Echocardiographic and laboratory data were recorded at enrolment. mGPS was scored as 0, 1, or 2 based on C-reactive protein (CRP) and albumin levels. Patients with both elevated CRP (>1 mg/dL) and hypoalbuminemia (<3.5 g/dL) are given mGPS of 2, patients with serum CRP ≤ 1 g/dL with or without hypoalbuminemia received scores of 0. Patients with only elevated CRP levels received mGPS of 1. The primary composite endpoint of the study was all-cause mortality or heart failure hospitalization through one year. Results. A total of 315 HFpEF outpatients were included, and 42 (13.3%) reached the primary endpoint at one year of follow-up. Compared to patients without mortality or heart failure-related hospitalization, patients who reached the primary endpoint during follow-up were older, were more likely be symptomatic, had higher N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and mGPS levels at study entry. Multivariate analysis showed that both NT-proBNP and mGPS were independent predictors of primary composite endpoint. Combining NT-proBNP with mGPS improved its prognostic value with an increase of area under the receiver operating characteristic curve from 0.759 to 0.822 (p = .001). Conclusion. This is the first study which demonstrates that mGPS is a predictor of outcomes in patients with HFpEF.

Abstract
Background We aimed to comprehensively evaluate the prognostic value of inflammation-based prognostic scores, including the modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), exclusively in patients with advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA). Methods Between May 2010 and April 2015, 305 patients with histologically documented unresectable or metastatic iCCA were treated with first-line gemcitabine plus cisplatin (GemCis). Among these, 257 patients had complete data for inflammation-based prognostic scores and were included. Results Median age was 59 (range: 27-78) years, and 158 patients (61.5%) were males. High mGPS was independently associated with poor progression-free survival (PFS; mGPS ≥1 vs. 0: median, 3.9 vs. 5.5 months; P = 0.001) and overall survival (OS; mGPS ≥1 vs. 0; median, 6.9 vs. 14.1 months; P = 0.002) in the multivariate analysis. Regarding high NLR (> median) and PLR (> median), although a potential association existed with poor PFS or OS in the univariate analysis, these did not remain as significant in the multivariate analyses. Conclusion The current study suggests that mGPS might be the relevant prognostic index that could stratify the survival outcomes of patients with unresectable or metastatic iCCA who received first-line GemCis.

Abstract
Inflammation is considered to be a prognostic factor for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). An inflammation-based prognostic score (modified Glasgow Prognostic Score; mGPS) is widely used for preoperative patients; however, little information is available regarding its prognostic value in patients with RCC treated with molecular-targeted drugs. A total of 32 advanced and recurrent RCC patients initially treated with molecular-targeted drugs from October, 2009 to August, 2015 were retrospectively investigated. Information on patient characteristics prior to treatment initiation and the clinical course were retrieved from clinical records. The correlation between survival and patient variables was analyzed. Survival was compared among patient groups according to the mGPS score. The median patient age was 66 years. The percentage of patients with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 or 1 was 87.5, and 65.6% of the RCCs were clear cell carcinomas. A Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center index of good or intermediate was determined for 75% of the patients. Sunitinib, pazopanib or sorafenib was administered to 56, 22 and 13% of the cases, respectively. An mGPS score of 0, 1 and 2 was calculated for 66, 9 and 25% of the cases, respectively. Patients in the mGPS low group (score 0) exhibited significantly better progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) compared with patients in the mGPS high group (score 1 or 2) (median PFS, 307 vs. 70 days and median OS, 1,081 vs. 140 days, respectively). In conclusion, inflammatory status as assessed by the mGPS score was closely associated with the prognosis of RCC patients treated with molecular-targeted therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS), which combines indices of decreased plasma albumin and elevated CRP, has reported independent prognostic significance in colorectal cancer, but its value in upper gastrointestinal cancer is unclear. The aim of this study was to assess the prognostic significance of mGPS in patients with operable esophageal malignancy. METHODS Patients undergoing resection with curative intent between January 2008 and June 2013 were included. The mGPS was scored as 0, 1, or 2 based on CRP(>10 mg/L) and albumin(<35g/L). The mGPS score (0 vs. 1/2 combined) was correlated with patient and tumor characteristics, and operative and oncologic outcomes. RESULTS Two hundred and twenty-three patients were included. Median (range) follow-up was 21(12-70) months. The mGPS was 0 in 174 patients(78%). mGPS was significantly associated with positive nodal status(P = 0.008) and stage ≥III (P = 0.017). There was a significant improvement in overall survival in patients with mGPS = 0 (47.8 vs. 37.5 months, P = 0.014) but in multivariate analysis, only TNM-stage and nodal status were found to be independent prognostic indicators. CONCLUSIONS mGPS is associated with advanced stage but has no independent prognostic significance and does not impact on operative outcomes. Consequently, this data does not support its routine application in patient selection or prognostication. J. Surg. Oncol. 2016;113:732-737. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
