- Prognostic Role of Neutrophil/Lymphocyte Ratio in Resected Gastric Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis(2018) SZOR, Daniel Jose; DIAS, Andre Roncon; PEREIRA, Marina Alessandra; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; CECCONELLO, Ivan; RIBEIRO-JUNIOR, UlyssesHigh levels of inflammatory markers and the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio appear to be associated with worse overall survival in solid tumors. However, few studies have analyzed the role of the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio in gastric cancer patients scheduled to undergo curative resection. In the present study, a systematic review and meta-analysis was performed to analyze the relationship between the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and overall survival in patients with gastric cancer submitted to curative resection and to identify the clinicopathological features (age, gender, tumor depth, nodal involvement and tumor differentiation) that are correlated with high neutrophil-lymphocyte ratios. A literature search of PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane and EMBASE through November 2017 was conducted. Articles that included gastric cancer patients submitted to curative resection and preoperatory neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio values were included. A total of 7 studies comprising 3264 patients from 5 different countries were included. The meta-analysis revealed an association of high neutrophil-lymphocyte ratios with older age, male gender, lower 5-year overall survival, increased depth of tumor invasion, positive nodal involvement but not with histological differentiation. Evaluation of the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio is a cost-effective method that is widely available in preoperatory settings. Furthermore, it can effectively predict prognosis, as high values of this biomarker are related to more aggressive tumor characteristics. This ratio can also be used to stratify risk in patients within the same disease stage and may be used to assist in individualized follow-up and treatment.
- The impact of sarcopenia on esophagectomy for cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis(2023) PARK, Amanda; ORLANDINI, Marina Feliciano; SZOR, Daniel Jose; RIBEIRO, Ulysses; TUSTUMI, FranciscoBackgroundEsophagectomy is the gold-standard treatment for locally advanced esophageal cancer but has high morbimortality rates. Sarcopenia is a common comorbidity in cancer patients. The exact burden of sarcopenia in esophagectomy outcomes remains unclear. Therefore, this systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to establish the impact of sarcopenia on postoperative outcomes of esophagectomy for cancer.MethodsWe performed a systematic review and meta-analysis comparing sarcopenic with non-sarcopenic patients before esophagectomy for cancer (Registration number: CRD42021270332). An electronic search was conducted on Embase, PubMed, Cochrane, and LILACS, alongside a manual search of the references. The inclusion criteria were cohorts, case series, and clinical trials; adult patients; studies evaluating patients with sarcopenia undergoing esophagectomy or gastroesophagectomy for cancer; and studies that analyze relevant outcomes. The exclusion criteria were letters, editorials, congress abstracts, case reports, reviews, cross-sectional studies, patients undergoing surgery for benign conditions, and animal studies. The meta-analysis was synthesized with forest plots.ResultsThe meta-analysis included 40 studies. Sarcopenia was significantly associated with increased postoperative complications (RD: 0.08; 95% CI: 0.02 to 0.14), severe complications (RD: 0.11; 95% CI: 0.04 to 0.19), and pneumonia (RD: 0.13; 95% CI: 0.09 to 0.18). Patients with sarcopenia had a lower probability of survival at a 3-year follow-up (RD: -0.16; 95% CI: -0.23 to -0.10).ConclusionPreoperative sarcopenia imposes a higher risk for overall complications and severe complications. Besides, patients with sarcopenia had a lower chance of long-term survival.
- Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio change after curative gastrectomy for gastric cancer: a subgroup analysis(2020) SZOR, Daniel Jose; DIAS, Andre Roncon; PEREIRA, Marina Alessandra; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; ZLBERSTEIN, Bruno; CECCONELLO, Ivan; RIBEIRO JUNIOR, UlyssesObjective: To evaluate the impact of neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio change after curative surgery for gastric cancer. Methods: A retrospective analysis of patients with gastric cancer who underwent curative surgery between 2009 and 2017 was performed. A cutoff value was established for the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio in the pre- and postoperative periods, according to the median value, and four subgroups were formed (low-low/low-high/high-low/high-high). Clinical-pathological and survival data were analyzed and related to these subgroups. Results: A total of 325 patients were included in the study. The cutoff values of the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio were 2.14 and 1.8 for the pre and postoperative periods, respectively. In patients with stages I and II, the high-high subgroup presented worse overall survival (p=0.016) and disease-free survival (p=0.001). Complications were higher in the low-high subgroup of patients. Conclusion: The neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio is a low cost, efficient and reproducible marker. The prognosis individualization can be performed according to the identification of subgroups at a higher risk of complications and worse prognosis.
- Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio is associated with prognosis in patients who underwent potentially curative resection for gastric cancer(2018) SZOR, Daniel Jose; DIAS, Andre Roncon; PEREIRA, Marina A.; RAMOS, Marcus F. K. P.; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; CECCONELLO, Ivan; RIBEIRO, UlyssesBackground and ObjectivesThe role of inflammation in cancer development is a well-known phenomenon that may be represented by the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR). The present research intends to determine the impact of NLR on the survival outcome of patients with gastric cancer (GC), and to evaluate its use as a stratification factor for the staging groups. MethodsData regarding clinical characteristics, surgery, pathology, and follow-up were retrospectively collected from our single-center prospective database. Blood samples were obtained before surgery. ResultsA total of 383 patients (231 males) who underwent gastrectomy with lymphadenectomy were evaluated between 2009 and 2016. NLR established cutoff was 2.44, and patients were divided in NLR 2.44 (hNLR) and <2.44 (lNLR). hNLR patients (38.4% of the cases) had lower disease-free survival and overall survival (OS) compared to lNLR patients (P=0.047 and P=0.045, respectively). Risk stratification according to NLR value was done in same tumor depth (T4 and
