Sarcopenia is an Independent Prognostic Factor in Patients With Pancreatic Cancer - a Meta-analysis. Acad Radiol 2023; 30:1552-1561. [PMID: 36564257 DOI: 10.1016/j.acra.2022.10.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2022] [Revised: 10/08/2022] [Accepted: 10/26/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES Sarcopenia is defined as skeletal muscle loss and can be assessed by cross-sectional imaging. Our aim was to establish the effect of sarcopenia on relevant outcomes in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in curative and palliative settings based on a large patient sample. MATERIALS AND METHODS MEDLINE library, EMBASE and SCOPUS databases were screened for the associations between sarcopenia and mortality in patients with PDAC up to March 2022. The primary endpoint of the systematic review was the hazard ratio of Sarcopenia on survival. 22 studies were included into the present analysis. RESULTS The included 22 studies comprised 3958 patients. The prevalence of sarcopenia was 38.7%. Sarcopenia was associated with a higher prevalence in the palliative setting (OR 53.23, CI 39.00-67.45, p<0.001) compared to the curative setting (OR 36.73, CI 27.81-45.65, p<0.001). Sarcopenia was associated with worse OS in the univariable (HR 1.79, CI 1.41-2.28, p<0.001) and multivariable analysis (HR 1.62, CI 1.27-2.07, p<0.001) in the curative setting. For the palliative setting the pooled hazards ratio showed that sarcopenia was associated with overall survival (HR 1.56, CI 1.21-2.02, p<0.001) as well as in multivariable analysis (HR 1.77, CI 1.39-2.26, p<0.001). Sarcopenia was not associated with a higher rate of post-operative complications in univariable analysis (OR 1.10, CI 0.70-1.72, p = 0.69). CONCLUSION Sarcopenia occurs in 38.7% of patients with pancreatic cancer, significantly more in the palliative setting. Sarcopenia is associated with overall survival in both settings. The assessment of sarcopenia is therefore relevant for personalized oncology. Sarcopenia is not associated with postoperative complications.

Systemic inflammation with sarcopenia predicts survival in patients with gastric cancer. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol 2023; 149:1249-1259. [PMID: 35435489 DOI: 10.1007/s00432-022-03925-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2021] [Accepted: 01/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The levels of platelet-related inflammation indicators and sarcopenia have been reported to affect the survival of patients with cancer. To evaluate the prognostic influence of platelet count (PLT), platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and systemic immune inflammation index (SII), and SII combined with sarcopenia on the survival of patients with gastric cancer (GC). METHODS A total of 1133 patients with GC (812 male and 321 female, average age: 59.43 years) were evaluated. Receiver-operating characteristic curves were used to determine the best cutoff values of PLT, PLR, and SII, and univariate and multivariate Cox risk regression models were used to evaluate whether SII is an independent predictor of overall survival (OS). The prognostic SS (SII-sarcopenia) was established based on SII and sarcopenia. Finally, a comprehensive analysis of the prognostic SS was performed. RESULTS SII had the strongest prognostic effect. The SII and OS of patients with GC were in an inverted U-shape (adjusted HR = 1.07; 95% CI 0.97-1.19; adjusted P = 0.179). In patients with SII > 1800, SII was negatively correlated with OS (adjusted HR = 0.57; 95% CI 0.29-1.12; adjusted P = 0.102), however, there is no statistical difference. Interestingly, a high SS was associated with a poorer prognosis. The higher the SS score was, the worse the OS (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION SII is an independent prognostic indicator of GC, and high SII is related to poor prognosis. A higher SS score had worse survival. Thus, the prognostic SS is a reliable predictor of OS in patients with GC.

Abstract
Despite of achieved progress in advanced pancreatic cancer treatment, the disease outcomes remain far from satisfying. The peculiarity of malnutrition treatment in these patients is the result of its causes complexity and progressively growing manifestations extent. The review represents mechanisms of malnutrition and approaches to their treatment.
