Besides tumor characteristics, colorectal cancer (CRC) outcomes are also determined by host factors, in particular the systemic inflammatory response. The basis of this relationship with survival is not known; however, systemic inflammation may reflect comorbidity. The present study examines relationships between host factors (including age, comorbidity, deprivation, and systemic inflammation) and survival in CRC.
A total of 302 patients underwent curative elective CRC resection between 1997 and 2005. Data was collected on patient comorbidity (Charlson Comorbidity Index [CCI], Lee Cardiac Risk Index [LCRI], National Institute on Aging and National Cancer Institute Comorbidity Index [NIA/NCI], and Adult Comorbidity Evaluation-27 [ACE-27]), systemic inflammatory response (Glasgow Prognostic Score [mGPS]), deprivation [Carstairs Deprivation Index], body mass index, and smoking status.
For cancer-specific survival, age (P = 0.047), tumor, node, metastasis system stage (P < 0.001), high-risk Petersen Index (P < 0.001), LCRI (P = 0.021), and mGPS (P < 0.001) were independent factors by multivariate analysis. For overall survival, age (P < 0.001), tumor, node, metastasis system stage (P = 0.001), high-risk Petersen Index (P = 0.002), postoperative infective complications (P = 0.002), ACE-27 (P = 0.008), and mGPS (P < 0.001) were independent factors. Older age related to increasing comorbidity (ACE-27, CCI, LCRI [P < 0.005]) and increased mGPS (P < 0.005). Smoking and deprivation related to increasing comorbidity (P < 0.05). The mGPS was associated with high comorbidity burden assessed with ACE-27 (P = 0.065), CCI (P = 0.016), LCRI (P = 0.095), and NIA/NCI (P = 0.084).
Comorbidity does not fully explain the relationship between the mGPS and cancer-specific survival in CRC patients. Furthermore, comorbidity, in particular that measured by the LCRI, is an important independent indicator of cancer survival.
除了肿瘤特征外,结直肠癌(CRC)的预后还取决于宿主因素,特别是全身炎症反应。这种与生存相关的关系的基础尚不清楚;然而,全身炎症可能反映合并症。本研究探讨了宿主因素(包括年龄、合并症、贫困和全身炎症)与 CRC 患者生存之间的关系。
本研究共纳入 302 例于 1997 年至 2005 年间接受根治性择期 CRC 切除术的患者。收集患者的合并症数据(Charlson 合并症指数[CCI]、Lee 心脏风险指数[LCRI]、国立衰老研究所和国家癌症研究所合并症指数[NIA/NCI]和成人合并症评估-27[ACE-27])、全身炎症反应(格拉斯哥预后评分[mGPS])、贫困(卡斯特斯贫困指数)、体重指数和吸烟状况。
在癌症特异性生存方面,年龄(P=0.047)、肿瘤、淋巴结、转移系统分期(P<0.001)、高危 Petersen 指数(P<0.001)、LCRI(P=0.021)和 mGPS(P<0.001)是多变量分析的独立因素。在总生存方面,年龄(P<0.001)、肿瘤、淋巴结、转移系统分期(P=0.001)、高危 Petersen 指数(P=0.002)、术后感染性并发症(P=0.002)、ACE-27(P=0.008)和 mGPS(P<0.001)是独立因素。年龄越大,合并症越严重(ACE-27、CCI、LCRI[P<0.005]),mGPS 越高(P<0.005)。吸烟和贫困与合并症增多有关(P<0.05)。mGPS 与 ACE-27(P=0.065)、CCI(P=0.016)、LCRI(P=0.095)和 NIA/NCI(P=0.084)评估的高合并症负担相关。
合并症并不能完全解释 mGPS 与 CRC 患者癌症特异性生存之间的关系。此外,合并症,特别是 LCRI 评估的合并症,是癌症生存的重要独立指标。
