Which Nutritional Scoring System Is More Suitable for Evaluating the Short- or Long-Term Prognosis of Patients with Gastric Cancer Who Underwent Radical Gastrectomy?

Predictive value of CONUT score combined with serum CA199 levels in postoperative survival of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma: a retrospective study

“…The Clavien-Dindo grading system is currently the most commonly used statistical classification system for complications. High CONUT scores correlate with an increased incidence of postoperative pneumonia, length of hospital stay and incidence of serious complications after gastric cancer (Lin et al, 2019). In our study, patients were divided into two groups based on the CONUT score by calculating a cutoff value and it was found that the high CONUT score group was more prone to severe postoperative complications and peripancreatic invasion, but was not more likely to develop postoperative pancreatic fistula.…”

“…Relevant reports have shown that the prognosis of tumor is closely related to the inflammatory status, immune function and nutritional status of patients (Mantzorou et al, 2017;Ni et al, 2019;Van Dijk & Pot, 2016;Xiao et al, 2019). Numerous studies have found that malnutrition significantly increases postoperative complications and has a negative impact on the quality of life, hospital stay, anti-cancer treatment effect and overall survival in cancer patients (Borre et al, 2018;Fujiya et al, 2018;Lin et al, 2019). Furthermore, the latest research shows that there is a close relationship between nutritional status and prognosis of patients with cancer, including PDAC (Abe et al, 2018;Balzano et al, 2017;Gilliland et al, 2017).…”

Preoperative Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) Score Predicts Short-Term Surgical Prognosis in Patients with Gastric Cancer After Laparoscopy-Assisted Radical Gastrectomy

“…The formula of CONUT comprises serum albumin total lymphocyte count, and cholesterol (Table.1) 11 . Recently previous studies reported that proactive assessment of nutritional status by the CONUT score could accurately predict long-term outcomes in patients with colorectal cancer 12 hepatocellular carcinoma 13 esophagus cancer 14 and gastric cancer 9,[15][16][17] . However little research work shed light on the CONUT score for shortterm complications after radical gastrectomy.…”
