Prognostic Utility of Platelet-to-Albumin Ratio among Critically Ill Patients with Colorectal Cancer: A Propensity Score Matching Study.

ABSTRACT: The platelet-to-albumin ratio (PAR) was developed to evaluate inflammatory and nutritional status among patients. The primary goal of the current study was to gain insight into the prognostic role of PAR in critically ill patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). The secondary aim was to develop and verify a clinical model including PAR for the prediction of 28-day mortality. This observational, multicenter study used data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC) IV, e-ICU databases, and Union cohort. Data from 776 critically ill patients with CRC were from the e-ICU database, 219 from the MIMC-IV database, and 135 from the Wuhan Union Hospital. Propensity score matching (PSM) analysis, along with inverse probability treatment weighting, was used to control the influence o
