English language studies were searched up to 28^th April 2022.<h4>Results</h4>Ten studies with 3802 patients were included. Meta-analysis indicated that patients with low GNRI had significantly poor overall survival (HR: 2.41 95% CI: 1.72, 3.41 I^{2 =} 68%) and disease-free survival (HR: 1.92 95% CI: 1.47, 2.49 I^{2 =} 49%) as compared to those with high GNRI.
