Geriatric nutritional risk index as a prognostic marker of pTNM-stage I and II esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after curative resection

Abstract: The geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) is associated with mortality in several malignancies. We retrospectively analyzed whether the GNRI can predict longterm outcomes in 191 patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) after curative esophagectomies by evaluating their cancer-specific survival (CSS). In multivariate analyses, serum albumin (hazard ratio [HR], 2.498; p = 0.0043), GNRI (HR, 1.941; p = 0.0181), pathological tumor-node-metastasis (pTNM) stage (HR, 3.884; p < 0.0001), and tumor dif… Show more

“…However, in the current study, the optimal GNRI cut-off value of 93.7 was determined based on the ROC analysis. This value is within the range of 91.959 to 104.25 reported in previous studies that determined the GNRI cut-off using ROC analysis (Hirahara et al, 2020a(Hirahara et al, , 2020bIde et al, 2021;Ruan et al, 2021). These findings highlight preoperative GNRI as a useful prognostic indicator in patients undergoing radical cancer resection.…”

“…Aging itself can reduce physiological recuperative power, aging is an independent risk factor for both in-hospital morbidity and mortality after colorectal surgery 2 , 3 . Recently, it has been widely accepted that GNRI (Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index) is strongly associated with mortality in elderly patients with various cancers 4 6 . However, as far as we know, there are few reports on the prognostic significance of GNRI in patients with colorectal cancer.…”

“…In clinical practice, TNM staging alone cannot be used to predict clinical outcomes, since it only classifies patients according to postoperative pathological outcomes and does not include nutritional or inflammatory status [ 29 , 30 ]. Thus, novel relevant prognostic predictors are needed to improve prognosis with individual treatment for gastric cancer.…”
