Patients' prognoses have been predicted by the preoperative inflammation-based score, but predicting a patient's risk for operative load remains challenging. This study investigates the usefulness of the postoperative C-reactive protein/albumin (CRP/Alb) ratio in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
This study retrospectively assessed 142 patients who underwent pancreatic resection for PDAC between 2004 and 2014. The time at which perioperative CRP/Alb ratio most influences the prognosis was identified, and the correlations among the perioperative CRP/Alb ratio, clinicopathological factors, and patient outcomes were investigated.
Among the perioperative CRP/Alb ratios, only a high CRP/Alb ratio at postoperative day 14 (POD14) was significantly associated with shorter overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS). High CRP/Alb ratio at POD 14 was related to high BMI, large amount of intraoperative bleeding, and the presence of complications. Finally, high CRP/Alb at POD14 was an independent prognostic factor of poor OS and RFS.
The CRP/Alb ratio at POD14 is a useful predictive marker of surgical invasion, biological reaction, and prognosis in PDAC patients.
术前炎症指标可预测患者预后,但预测患者手术负荷风险仍然具有挑战性。本研究旨在探讨术后 C 反应蛋白/白蛋白(CRP/Alb)比值在胰腺导管腺癌(PDAC)患者中的应用价值。
本研究回顾性分析了 2004 年至 2014 年间接受胰腺切除术治疗的 142 例 PDAC 患者。确定了围手术期 CRP/Alb 比值影响预后的最佳时间,并探讨了围手术期 CRP/Alb 比值与临床病理因素及患者预后的相关性。
在围手术期 CRP/Alb 比值中,只有术后第 14 天(POD14)的高 CRP/Alb 比值与总生存(OS)和无复发生存(RFS)时间显著相关。POD14 时高 CRP/Alb 比值与 BMI 较高、术中出血量较大以及并发症的发生有关。最终,POD14 时高 CRP/Alb 比值是 OS 和 RFS 不良的独立预后因素。
POD14 时的 CRP/Alb 比值是 PDAC 患者手术侵袭性、生物学反应和预后的有用预测标志物。
