Background/Aims: Identification of nutritional indicators to predict short-term and long-term outcomes is necessary to provide appropriate treatment to patients with gastric cancer. Methods: We designed an analysis of a multicenter dataset of patients with gastric cancer who underwent gastrectomy between 2010 and 2014. We enrolled 842 eligible patients who had stage II/III gastric cancer. The area under the curve (AUC) values were compared among prognostic nutritional index (PNI), calculated as 10 × albumin g/dL + 0.005 × total lymphocyte count/mm3, and its constituents, and the predictive value of preoperative PNI for postoperative short-term and long-term outcomes was evaluated. Results: Preoperative PNI exhibited higher AUC values (0.719) for 1-year survival than its constituents, and the optimal cutoff value was 47. The disease-free and overall survival of patients in the PNI-low group were significantly shorter compared with those in the PNI-high group. The prognostic difference between the PNI-high and PNI-low groups was significantly greater in the subgroup of patients who underwent total gastrectomy. Clinically relevant postoperative complications were more frequently observed in the PNI-low group. Conclusions: The preoperative PNI is a useful predictor reflecting the incidence of complications after gastrectomy and the prognosis of patients with stage II/III gastric cancer.

Abstract Background The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic significance of the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) for both short and long term outcomes after liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods 162 (without any previous treatment) of 229 surgically treated HCC patients were retrospectively analyzed. The cut off value of the preoperative PNI was 45.0. Patients were divided into two groups, PNI low (n=76) and high (n=86) group. Results Among some immune parameters such as PNI, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) to lymphocyte ratio (ALRI), PNI had most reliable parameters in terms with prediction of both short and long term outcomes. Preoperative PNI tended to correlate with low skeletal muscle mass (SMM). In short term outcomes, PNI low group were more likely to have postoperative complications. The disease-free survival rate in PNI low group was significantly worse than that in the PNI high group (20.5 vs. 48.7 %, 5 year SR, p=0.03). On multivariate analysis, Low PNI was an independent prognostic factor for disease free survival (HR 1.65, p= 0.04). Conclusions The preoperative PNI was the most significant prognostic factor for evaluating both short and long-term outcomes after liver resection for HCC.
