Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background The benefit of implantable cardiac defibrillator (ICD) in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) could be limited in a particular group of patients. Low prognostic nutritional index (PNI) indicates malnutrition and pro-inflammatory condition. We sought to investigate the value of PNI in predicting long-term mortality among HFrEF patients with ICD. Methods Electronic database was searched for identifying patients with HFrEF who were implanted ICD in our institution between 2009 and 2019. Demographic and clinical characteristics of included patients were recorded. PNI was calculated according to the formula: 10 x serum albumin (g/dL) + 0.005 x total lymphocyte count (per mm3). Patients were divided into the quartiles according to PNI values. Differences between the groups were analysed by the log-rank test. A forward Cox proportional regression model was used for multivariable analysis. Results One thousand and hundred patients were included to the study. The underlying heart failure etiology was ischemic and non-ischemic in 77.3% and 22.7% of patients respectively. Mortality rate in Q1 (5.1%) was considered as the reference. In the unadjusted model the mortality rate was 9.5% [hazard ratio (HR) 1.76, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) (0.92 – 3.38)] in Q2, 10.2% (HR 1.88, 95% CI 0.99 – 3.58) in Q3 and 39.6% (HR 8.12, 95% CI 4.65 – 14.17) in Q4. The same trend was consistent in the age- and sex-adjusted, comorbidities-adjusted and covariates-adjusted models. Conclusion Among patients who were implanted ICD secondary to HFrEF, lower PNI value predicted all-cause mortality during long-term follow up. This is the first study demonstrating the value of PNI in this population.

Abstract Background Recent reports indicate the nutritional and immune status often affect the long-term prognosis of patients with cancer. The preoperative prognostic nutritional index(PNI) is used as an evaluation of the perioperative nutritional status, and it is reported that the PNI level correlates with postoperative results. However, only a handful of reports have discussed the predictive prognostic potential of postoperative PNI. The aim of this study is to clarify the correlation of postoperative PNI level and long-term prognosis of patients with esophagus cancer who underwent esophagectomy. Methods A total of 29 patients with esophageal cancer who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by radical esophagectomy from January 2011 to December 2014 were retrospectively reviewed. The calculation of PNI level is as follows: 10 × serum albumin level (g/dL) + 0.005 × total lymphocyte count (/mm3). The postoperative PNI level was measured three months after radical esophagectomy. The patients were stratified by postoperative PNI level by two groups using calculated cutoff level (PNI = 43.9) by receiver operating characteristic curve. The correlation of 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) and postoperative PNI level was evaluated. Results Of the total, 25 were male and 4 were female. The median age of patients was 68 years (31–79 years). Overall, patients received 1–2 cycles of preoperative chemotherapy with 5-FU and cisplatin. Of these 29 patients, 9 (31.0%) responded to chemotherapy (8 patients had a partial response and 1 had a complete response). The median postoperative PNI level was 47.2 (38.0–58.9). Univariate analyses showed that 3-year DFS was worse in patients with low postoperative PNI level (P = 0.017), advanced pathological stage (P = 0.029) and younger age (< 70 years) (P = 0.02). Multivariate analyses showed that low postoperative PNI level[hazard ratio (HR) 0.224, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.060–0.83, P = 0.026] and advanced pathological stage (HR 3.197, 95% CI 1.13–9.06, P = 0.029) were independent predictors of 3-year DFS. Conclusion Our findings suggest that the postoperative PNI level may be a useful marker to predict a prognosis of patients with esophagus cancer. Nutrition intervention for undernourished patients after surgery may improve prognosis of patients with esophagus cancer. Disclosure All authors have declared no conflicts of interest.

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 Preoperative nutritional and inflammation indexes have been shown to be associated with postoperative complications and the prognosis of patients with a malignant tumor. We evaluated several clinicopathological prognostic factors in patients with resected esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Methods Seventy-eight patients who underwent curative resection for ESCC were included in this retrospective study. The associations of body mass index (BMI), the prognostic nutritional index (PNI), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and protein-albumin ratio (CAR) with various clinicopathological factors were evaluated. Results In multivariate analyses, only low PNI (<46.8) independently and significantly predicted overall survival (OS) (P=0.002). Conclusions The PNI is a simple, useful marker for predicting the long-term prognosis of patients with ESCC after esophagectomy. The PNI should be included in the routine assessment of patients with ESCC.
