Prognostic value of the preoperative albumin-bilirubin score among patients with stages I-III gastric cancer undergoing radical resection: A retrospective study.

ABSTRACT: The albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score was originally used to accurately assess liver dysfunction and predict the prognoses of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. Following its more recent application to patients with gastrointestinal tumors, this study analyzed the prognostic value of the ALBI score in Chinese patients with advanced resectable (tumor-node-metastasis [TNM] stages I-III) gastric cancer (GC). This study investigated 1185 patients with advanced GC, including 429 with TNM stage I. The patients were divided into training and verifications groups (593 and 592 patients, respectively) in which these patients were classified as high risk (ALBI score ≥ -2.65) or low risk (ALBI score < -2.65). Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed, and a visual survival p
