The impact of diabetes mellitus on short and long term outcomes in patients with gastric cancer following radical surgery: a retrospective cohort study with propensity score matching.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The objective of this study was to analyze the impact of diabetes mellitus (DM) on short and long term outcomes following radical gastrectomy using propensity score matching (PSM) method, as well as to further investigate the factors influencing patient survival post-radical gastrectomy.

Methods

The patients who underwent radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer (GC) between January 2011 and December 2015 were selected as study population, and PSM procedure was conducted with a matching ratio of 1:3 between the DM and non-DM groups. The short-term recovery and long-term survival outcomes were compared between the DM and non-DM group. Subsequently, univariate and multivariate COX regression analyses were conducted to further explore the factors that influence surviva
