ObjectiveTo explore the factors of affecting the prognosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) after radical resection based on the preoperative systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and the controlling nutritional status (CONUT) score and to establish a prognostic prediction model.MethodsThe clinicopathologic data of patients diagnosed with PDAC from January 2014 to December 2019 in the Second Hospital of Lanzhou University were retrospectively analyzed. The X-tile software was used to determine the optimal cut-off value of SII. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze survival. The Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to conduct multivariate analysis of prognostic factors of PDAC after radical surgery. R4.0.5 software was used to draw a nomogram prediction model of 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates, then evaluate the effectiveness of the prediction model and establish a web page calculator.ResultsA total of 131 patients were included in the study. The median survival time was 18.6 months, and the cumulative survival rates at 1-, 2-, and 3-year were 73.86%, 36.44%, and 11.95%, respectively. The optimal cut-off value of preoperative SII was 313.1, and the prognosis of patients with SII>313.1 was worse than SII≤313.1 (χ2=8.917, P=0.003). The results of multivariate analysis suggested that the age>65 years old, clinical stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ, preoperative SII>313.1, and CONUT score >4 were the independent factors influencing the prognosis (overall survival) for PDAC after radical resection (P<0.05). The internal verification consistency index (C-index) of the nomogram prediction model including age, clinical stage, preoperative SII, CONUT score and postoperative chemotherapy was 0.669. The survival predicted by the nomogram correction curve fitted well with the observed survival. The decision curve analysis showed that the nomogram prediction model had a wider clinical net benefit (Threshold probability was 0.05–0.95), and the web calculator worked well.ConclusionsAge, clinical stage, preoperative SII, CONUT score are independent influencing factors for prognosis after radical PDAC surgery. Nomogram prediction model included these independent influencing factors is more accurate and web calculator will be more convenient for doctors and patients.
ObjectiveTo analyze the effect of microecological preparation on digestive tract complications and nutritional status after esophageal cancer surgery.MethodsA total of 146 patients with esophageal cancer admitted to the Department of Thoracic Surgery, Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from October 2017 to June 2019 were selected. There were 91 males and 55 females, aged 65 (61.9±8.2) years. They were randomly divided into two groups (an observation group and a control group, n=73 in each group) according to whether microecological preparation was given when they could take food one week after the surgery. Nutritional status and the incidence of gastrointestinal complications including anorexia, acid reflux, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea (≥3 times per day) in the first month after operation were compared between the two groups.ResultsThe incidence of anorexia, nausea, diarrhea (≥3 times per day), anastomotic fistula and stenosis in the observation group was lower and the index of nutritional status was higher than those in the control group within one month after the operation (all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in acid reflux, vomiting, lung infection and incision infection between the two groups (all P>0.05).ConclusionMicroecological preparation can regulate gastrointestinal microecological balance, improve nutritional status, reduce the incidence of gastrointestinal complications and accelerate the postoperative rehabilitation.
ObjectiveTo analyze the incidence of complications, duration of chest tube indwelling, and nutritional status in tuberculosis (TB) patients undergoing pulmonary surgery, and to explore perioperative nutritional management strategies and rehabilitation measures by identifying nutritional factors influencing postoperative chest tube duration. MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of TB patients who underwent lobectomy at the Department of Thoracic Surgery, Chengdu Public Health Clinical Medical Center from 2022 to 2023. Patients were grouped based on chest tube duration (≤7 days vs. >7 days) and propensity score matching (PSM) was performed. Complications, drainage volume, and nutritional status were compared between groups. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify factors associated with prolonged chest tube duration. ResultsAmong 276 enrolled patients, 163 had chest tube duration ≤7 days [pre-PSM: 91 males, 72 females, mean age of (34.88±14.10) years] and 113 had duration >7 days [pre-PSM: 69 males, 44 females, mean age of (39.04±13.28) years]. After PSM (45 patients per group), no significant differences were observed in pleural or pulmonary infection rates between groups (P>0.05). Univariate analysis revealed statistical differences in preoperative albumin-to-globulin ratio (A/G), 24-hour postoperative A/G, 24-hour postoperative prognostic nutritional index (PNI), pre-discharge A/G, and pre-discharge hemoglobin (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression identified the following independent risk factors for prolonged chest tube duration: preoperative A/G, 24-hour postoperative A/G, 24-hour postoperative PNI, pre-discharge A/G, and pre-discharge hemoglobin. ConclusionPreoperative A/G, 24-hour postoperative A/G and PNI, and pre-discharge A/G and hemoglobin significantly influence chest tube duration in TB patients. Preoperative nutritional-immunological indicators independently predict prolonged drainage, while dynamic postoperative monitoring provides comprehensive recovery assessment. Integrating these parameters enables early identification of high-risk patients, facilitates personalized drainage management, and may reduce hospitalization duration while improving prognosis.
Objective To investigate the effect of FLEEOX regiment on nutritional status of advanced gastric cancer patients after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Methods Forty-eight cases of advanced gastric cancer patients from December 2010 to October 2011 in this hospital were included into. The indexes of body composition and the blood related nutritional indicators before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy were determined. Results After neoadjuvant chemotherapy，the body weight，intracellular fluid，body mass index，protein，body fat，body cell mass，and arm circumference mildly decreased；extracellular fluid，body water content，inorganic salts，bone mineral content，non-fat group，skeletal muscle，and arm muscle circumference mildly increased，but the differences were not statistically significant （P＞0.05）. The blood albumin，prealbumin，total protein，transferrin，and lymphocytes decreased at different degrees down，but the differences were not statistically significant （P＞0.05）. Conclusion Patients have no obvious changes in nutritional status during chemotherapy of FLEEOX regiment.
ObjectiveTo investigate the prognostic value and consistency of prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA) in perioperative nutritional status of patients with esophageal cancer.MethodsClinical data of 224 patients, including 186 males and 38 females with an average age of 63.08±8.42 years, who underwent esophageal cancer surgery in our hospital from November 2017 to August 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. The PNI was calculated according to the results of the first time blood and biochemical tests, and the PG-SGA assessment was also performed. According to the PNI value, the patients were divided into a good nutrition group (PNI≥45, 60 patients) and a malnutrition group (PNI<45, 164 patients). According to the PG-SGA score, the patients were divided into a good nutrition group (PG-SGA<4, 75 patients) and a malnutrition group (PG-SGA≥4, 149 patients). Nutrition-related haematological indexes and body mass index (BMI) were compared between the two groups, and the consistency of PNI and PG-SGA for nutritional assessment was analyzed.ResultsThe nutrition-related haematological indexes in different PNI groups were statistically different in the perioperative period (P<0.01). The longitudinal changes of prealbumin in patients of different PG-SGA groups were statistically different (P<0.05); the BMI of patients in different PG-SGA groups was statistically different in the perioperative period (P<0.01). The Kappa coefficient of the two indicators was 0.589 (P<0.001).ConclusionBoth PNI and PG-SGA can predict the nutritional risk of patients with esophageal cancer to some extent. PNI is an objective monitoring indicator, and PG-SGA is a subjective evaluation indicator, the combined use of which can more comprehensively reflect and predict the nutritional status of patients, and provide an important reference to the development of individualized nutrition support programs.
