Systemic inflammation is closely related to the occurrence and development of tumours. Based on preoperative neutrophil, monocyte, and lymphocyte counts, a new systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) was established, and the predictive ability of the SIRI for the survival of patients with adenocarcinoma of the oesophagogastric junction (AEG) was evaluated by propensity score matching (PSM) analysis. A total of 302 AEG patients undergoing radical surgery were studied. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed using Cox proportional hazards regression models. Time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to compare the predictive capabilities of the SIRI. PSM was implemented to balance the baseline characteristics. The results showed that the SIRI, PLR, NLR, and MLR were associated with overall survival (OS) in AEG patients based on the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that the SIRI was an independent prognostic factor. The AUC for the SIRI was significantly greater than that for the NLR, PLR, and MLR in predicting the 3- and 5-year OS of AEG patients. In PSM analysis, the SIRI remained an independent prognostic indicator of OS in AEG patients. The SIRI is a novel, simple, and inexpensive prognostic predictor for AEG. The prognostic value of the SIRI is superior to that of the PLR, NLR, and MLR. The SIRI can be used to distinguish the prognosis of AEG patients with different TNM stages and can be an important supplement to TNM staging.

Background The systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), a novel and cost-effective serum biomarker, is associated with prognosis in patients with cancer. However, the prognostic value of the SIRI in cancer remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the potential role of the SIRI as a prognostic indicator in cancer. Methods Reports in which the prognostic value of the SIRI in cancer was evaluated were retrieved from electronic databases. The pooled hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated to evaluate the prognostic significance of the SIRI. The odds ratio (OR) was also calculated to explore the association between the SIRI and clinicopathological features. Results This study included 30 retrospective studies with 38 cohorts and 10 754 cases. The meta-analysis indicated that a high SIRI was associated with short overall survival (OS) (HR = 2.04, 95% CI = 1.82–2.29, P < .001) and disease-free survival (DFS)/recurrence-free survival (RFS)/progression-free survival (PFS) (HR = 2.08, 95% CI = 1.84–2.34, P < .001). Subgroup analysis showed that the prognostic value of the SIRI was significant in all kinds of cancer included. Moreover, the SIRI was significantly correlated with sex, tumor size, T stage, N stage, TNM stage, and lymphovascular invasion. Conclusion The pretreatment SIRI could be a promising universal prognostic indicator in cancer.

BackgroundThe satisfactory prognostic indicator of gastric cancer (GC) patients after surgery is still lacking. Perioperative plasma extracellular vesicular programmed cell death ligand-1 (ePD-L1) has been demonstrated as a potential prognosis biomarker in many types of cancers. The prognostic value of postoperative plasma ePD-L1 has not been characterized.MethodsWe evaluated the prognostic value of preoperative, postoperative and change in plasma ePD-L1, as well as plasma soluble PD-L1, in short-term survival of GC patients after surgery. The Kaplan-Meier survival model and Cox proportional hazards models for both univariate and multivariate analyzes were used. And the comparison between postoperative ePD-L1 and conventional serum biomarkers (carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), cancer antigen 19–9 (CA19-9) and CA72-4) in prognostic of GC patients was made.ResultsThe prognostic value of postoperative ePD-L1 is superior to that of preoperative ePD-L1 on GC patients after resection, and also superior to that of conventional serum biomarkers (CEA, CA19-9 and CA72-4). The levels of postoperative ePD-L1 and ePD-L1 change are independent prognostic factors for overall survival and recurrence free survival of GC patients. High plasma level of postoperative ePD-L1 correlates significantly with poor survival, while high change in ePD-L1 level brings the significant survival benefit.ConclusionsThe level of plasma postoperative ePD-L1 could be considered as a candidate prognostic biomarker of GC patients after resection.

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) accounts for ~15% of all strokes and is associated with high mortality and disability rates. The systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) is a novel systemic inflammatory marker based on peripheral neutrophil, monocyte, and lymphocyte counts. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of admission SIRI in patients with spontaneous ICH and compare its predictive ability with that of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR). This retrospective study was conducted based on a prospectively collected database of patients with ICH between June 2016 and January 2019. Propensity score matching (PSM) was conducted to adjust for potential imbalances in the clinical parameters. A total of 403 patients were included in the original cohort. The optimal SIRI cut-off value was 2.76. After 1:1 PSM based on potential confounding variables, a new cohort containing 262 patients was established for further analysis. In the original cohort, SIRI served as an independent predictor of 3-month functional outcome [odds ratio (OR), 1.302; 95% CI, 1.120–1.512; p = 0.001] and 1-month mortality (OR, 1.072; 95% CI, 1.020–1.126; p = 0.006), while NLR was independently associated with only 3-month functional outcomes (OR, 1.051; 95% CI, 1.004–1.100; p = 0.031) and not 1-month mortality. The same applied to the PSM cohort. Receiver operating characteristic analyses and predictive models indicated that in most instances, SIRI was superior to NLR and their components in predicting the outcomes of patients with ICH. Our study found that SIRI is determined to be an independent predictive indicator for ICH patients in 3-month functional outcomes and 1-month mortality. The prognostic predictive ability of SIRI was stronger than that of NLR.

Aims. Predicting the prognosis of gastric cancer using tumour-node-metastasis (TNM) staging is difficult as patients with the same TNM stage exhibit different prognoses. Methods. This study investigated the prognostic value of the preoperative fibrinogen/albumin ratio (FAR)-systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) score in resectable gastric cancer (rGC). Results. Clinicopathological features of 231 rGC patients were analysed retrospectively. Patients were divided into three groups: FAR-SIRI score 2 (FAR≥0.071 and SIRI≥0.84), 1 (FAR<0.071 and SIRI≥0.84), and 0 (SIRI<0.84). Higher FAR-SIRI scores were associated with larger tumours, poorer differentiation, and advanced TNM stage (P<0.05). Compared to those with FAR-SIRI scores of 0, patients with scores of 2 had poorer overall survival (OS). The FAR-SIRI score was an independent prognostic factor for OS in rGC. Conclusion. The present data demonstrated that FAR-SIRI scores predicted radical gastric cancer surgical outcomes and may serve as a blood marker for identifying high-risk patients.

IntroductionNasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a common malignancy in China and known prognostic factors are limited. In this study, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), systemic immune inflammation index (SII), and systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) were evaluated as prognostic factors in locally advanced NPC patients.Materials and MethodsNPC patients who received curative radiation or chemoradiation between January 2012 and December 2015 at the Second Xiangya Hospital were retrospectively reviewed, and a total of 516 patients were shortlisted. After propensity score matching (PSM), 417 patients were eventually enrolled. Laboratory and clinical data were collected from the patients’ records. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was used to determine the optimal cut-off value. Survival curves were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. The Cox proportional hazard model was used to identify prognostic variables.ResultsAfter PSM, all basic characteristics between patients in the high SIRI group and low SIRI group were balanced except for sex (p=0.001) and clinical stage (p=0.036). Univariate analysis showed that NLR (p=0.001), PLR (p=0.008), SII (p=0.001), and SIRI (p&lt;0.001) were prognostic factors for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). However, further multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that only SIRI was an independent predictor of PFS and OS (hazard ratio (HR):2.83; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.561-5.131; p=0.001, HR: 5.19; 95% CI: 2.588-10.406; p&lt;0.001), respectively.ConclusionOur findings indicate that SIRI might be a promising predictive indicator of locally advanced NPC patients.

Background: The preoperative systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), based on peripheral neutrophil (N), monocyte (M), and lymphocyte (L) counts, has shown mounting evidence as an effective prognostic indicator in some malignant tumors. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the prognostic significance of pre-treatment SIRI in gastric cancer patients who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT).Methods: This retrospective study comprised 107 patients with advanced gastric cancer treated with NACT between July 2007 and September 2015 in our hospital. SIRI was calculated from peripheral venous blood samples obtained prior to treatment. The best cutoff value for SIRI by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was 1.2 (low SIRI &lt;1.21, high SIRI ≥1.21). The clinical outcomes of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and compared using the log-rank test. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed by the Cox proportional hazards regression model.Results: The results demonstrated that the low SIRI group was statistically associated with gender, primary tumor site, white blood cell, neutrophil, and monocyte counts, NLR (neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio), MLR (monocyte to lymphocyte ratio), and PLR (platelet to lymphocyte ratio). The SIRI was predictive for DFS and OS by univariate and multivariate analysis; the low SIRI group had better median DFS and OS than the high SIRI group (median DFS 27.03 vs. 22.33 months, median OS 29.73 vs. 24.43 months). The DFS and OS in the low SIRI group were longer than the high SIRI group.Conclusions: SIRI may qualify as a useful, reliable, and convenient prognostic indicator in patients with advanced gastric cancer to help physicians to provide personalized prognostication for gastric cancer patients treated with NACT.
