Application of four nutritional risk indexes in perioperative management for esophageal cancer patients.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

The Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI), Nutritional Risk Index (NRI), Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI), and Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score were devised for quantifying nutritional risk. This study evaluated their properties in detecting compromised nutrition and guiding perioperative management of esophageal cancer patients.

Methods

A prospective institutional database of esophageal cancer patients was reviewed and analyzed. Compromised nutritional status was defined as PNI < 50, NRI < 97.5, GNRI < 92, or CONUT score ≥ 4, respectively. The malnutrition diagnosis consensus established by the European Society of Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN 2015) was selected as reference. Multivariable logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic curve analysis were used. External validation was conducted.

Results

After reviewing the 212-patient database, 192 patients were finally included. Among the four nutritional indexes, the GNRI < 92 showed highest sensitivity (72.0%), specificity (78.9%), and consistency (AUC 0.754, 95% CI 0.672-0.836) with malnutrition diagnosed by ESPEN 2015. The GNRI < 92 showed comparable performance with ESPEN 2015 in recognizing decreased fat mass, fat-free mass, and skeletal muscle mass (all P < 0.01). Both the GNRI < 92 and ESPEN 2015 showed good property in predicting major complications, infectious complications, overall complications and delayed hospital discharge (all P < 0.01), better than PNI < 50, NRI < 97.5, and CONUT score ≥ 4. Regarding the external validation, a retrospective analysis of 155 esophageal cancer patients confirmed the better performance of GNRI < 92 in predicting perioperative morbidities than other 3 nutritional indexes.

Conclusion

The GNRI was optimal in perioperative management of esophageal cancer patients among the four nutritional indexes and was an appropriate alternative to ESPEN 2015 for simplifying nutritional assessment.

Project description:Nutritional and inflammatory status was associated with prognosis in various types of malignant cancer, including colorectal cancer (CRC). This clinical research was performed to estimate the prognostic role of immune-nutritional indexes CRC in patients and to set up a survival nomogram based on the significant immune-nutritional indexes. 1024 CRC patients underwent surgical resection from Wuhan Union Hospital were enrolled and divided into the test cohort (n = 717) and validation cohort (n = 307). A total of 19 immune-nutritional indexes were included into our analysis. The Cox regression analysis was utilized to identify the informative immune-nutritional indexes which were closely associated with overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). Survival nomograms were created in the test set and further verified in the validation set. Td-ROC was curved to estimate the predictive performance of survival nomograms for CRC patients. Body mass index (BMI), chemotherapy, TNM stage, T stage, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)/prealbumin (PA), monocytes (MON)/albumin (ALB), and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) were seven potent prognostic biomarkers of CRC patients. We created an OS-nomogram based on the seven risk indexes, and the predictive accuracy expressed with area under curve (AUC) was 0.826 for 1-year, 0.809 for 3-year, and 0.80 for 5-year OS rates in the test set and 0.795 for 1-year, 0.749 for 3-year, and 0.647 for 5-year OS rates in the validation set. TNM stage, T stage, LDH/ALB, and MON/ALB were risk factors for unfavorable DFS in CRC patients. We further built a DFS-nomogram based on the four risk factors, and the predictive performance presented with AUC was 0.806 for 1-year, 0.763 for 3-year, and 0.82 for 5-year DFS rates in the test set, and 0.704 for 1-year, 0.692 for 3-year, and 0.692 for 5-year DFS rates in the validation set. Our survival nomogram based on immune-nutritional indexes is a useful and potential prognostic tool in CRC patients.
