Abstract
Background Pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) is a rare disease, the prognosis of overall survival (OS) is affected by many factors, present study aim to screen independent prediction indicators and establish a nomogram for PMP.
Methods 119 PMP patients received cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in our center for the first time were included between 01/06/2013 and 22/11/2019 . The log-rank test was used to compare the OS rate among groups, subsequently, variables with P<0.10 were subjected to multivariate Cox model for screening independent prediction indicators.
Finally, the nomogram prediction models will be established.
Results Univariate analysis showed that Barthel Index Score, Albumin, D-Dimer, CEA, CA125, CA19-9, CA724, CA242, PCI, degree of radical surgery, histopathological grade were significant predictors for OS in PMP. At multivariate analysis, Sex, D-Dimer, CA125, CA19-9, PCI, and degree of radical surgery were independently associated with OS rate in PMP. A nomogram was plotted based on the independent predictive factors for PMP and undergone internal validation, ROC analysis was performed to calculate discrimination ability of prediction model, the area under curves (AUC) was 0.880 (95% CI : 0.806- 0.933).
Conclusions Several factors (Sex, D-Dimer, CA125, CA19-9, PCI, and degree of radical surgery) have independent prognostic value for survival in PMP, the tumor based prediction model has a better prediction value, more researches are need to verify and improve the prediction model.
