Abstract:

Objective

To investigate the relationship between preoperative prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and prognosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients with simultaneous liver metastasis.

Methods

This retrospective cohort study included 83 patients of newly diagnosed CRC with simultaneous liver metastasis in Shenzhen People’s Hospital from January 2015 to January 2017. According to 5-year follow-up survival outcomes, the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to determine the cut-off value of PNI, and the patients were divided into high PNI group and low PNI group. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the related factors and survival. Cox proportional hazards model was used to screen the prognostic factors.

Results

The median follow-up time was 13 months (9 to 25 months), and 44 cases died. The Youden index was 1.31 and the PNI value was 50.4. According to PNI, 44 cases (53.01%) were divided into low PNI group and 39 cases (46.99%) into high PNI group. The overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) of low PNI group were significantly shorter than those of high PNI group (P=0.005, 0.018, respectively). PNI<50.4, without radical operation, multiple liver metastase, and age≥60 years old were independent prognostic factors of OS. PNI<50.4 and without radical operation were independent prognostic factors of PFS (both P<0.05).

Conclusion

Preoperative PNI is an independent predictor of OS and PFS in CRC patients with simultaneous liver metastasis.
