Correlation between hemoglobin-to-albumin ratio and complications after radical gastrectomy in gastric cancer patients.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Patients who undergo radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer often experience multiple complications that affect the recovery process and reduce quality of life. The hemoglobin-to-albumin ratio (HAR) reflects nutritional status and is widely used to assess various diseases. However, its association with complications after radical gastrectomy in gastric cancer patients has not been fully explored.

Methods

This study retrospectively analyzed clinical and pathological data from 352 gastric cancer patients who underwent radical gastrectomy at the Second Hospital of Lanzhou University between January 2023 and December 2024. The severity of postoperative complications was graded using the Clavien-Dindo classification system, resulting in two groups: non-complication gro
