Abstract
BACKGROUND After radical resection for esophageal cancer, death within 1 year of surgery can occur due both to recurrence and to other diseases, even after postoperative complications have been overcome. This study identified risk factors for early death within 1 year of esophagectomy for reasons other than death in hospital in patients undergoing esophagectomy for esophageal cancer or esophagogastric junction cancer. METHODS We reviewed 366 patients who underwent esophagectomy without adjuvant treatment between January 2009 and July 2022 for thoracic esophageal cancer or esophagogastric junction cancer. Patients who died within 1 year excluding in-hospital death were compared with those who did not. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify predictors of death within 1 year after surgery. RESULTS Death within 1 year occurred in 32 of 366 patients, 24 from primary disease and 8 from other diseases. Deaths within 1 year were significantly older than the other cases, had significantly lower % vital capacity (%VC), and occurred significantly more often in cases in advanced stages of disease. In a multivariable analysis, a systemic inflammation score (SIS) based on serum albumin level and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio was identified as an independent predictor of death within 1 year. As SIS increased, %VC decreased significantly, and CRP level and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio increased significantly. There was no relationship between SIS and pN. Death within 1 year increased as SIS increased (p = 0.001 for trend). CONCLUSION SIS assessment undertaken before beginning esophageal cancer treatment is a useful predictor of death within 1 year of surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The systemic inflammation score (SIS) has been utilised as a representative biomarker for evaluating nutritional and inflammation status. However, the predictive value of SIS has not been reported in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). We aimed to evaluate whether SIS is associated with prognosis in stroke. METHODS A total of 4801 patients with AIS were included in the study. The primary outcome was a modified Rankin Scale score>2 at the 3-month follow-up. A total of 4801 patients were randomly allocated into training (n=3361) and validation cohorts (n=1440) at a ratio of 7:3. Model performance was validated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and calibration curve. Additionally, a comparison was made between the nomogram and the THRIVE score in regards to their respective predictive capabilities. RESULTS Overall, 1091(32.5%) patients in the training cohort and 446 (31.0%) patients in the validation cohort experienced an unfavorable outcome. The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that a high SIS, age, NIHSS, diabetes and prior stroke were associated with unfavorable outcome. Our nomogram was developed based on the variables mentioned above. The area under the curve (AUC) of the training set and the validation set are 0.702 and 0.708, respectively, indicating that the model has modest agreement and discrimination. The results of AUC, net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) showed that nomogram had significantly higher predictive value than THRIVE scores (all P<0.001). However, unlike the THRIVE publication, all patients who had undergone intravenous thrombolysis or endovascular thrombectomy therapy were excluded in our study. In consequence, our derived THRIVE scores cannot be compared to those in the original THRIVE study. CONCLUSION The SIS exhibits potential as a simple prognostic biomarker, and the nomogram, which utilizes the SIS, may serve as a valuable tool for clinicians in the early identification of patients at heightened risk for unfavorable outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The systemic inflammation score (SIS), based on serum albumin (Alb) and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), is a novel prognostic tool for some tumours. Studies indicate that the SIS can be used as a postoperative prognostic marker. However, its predictive value in elderly oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients treated with radiotherapy is unclear. METHODS In total, 166 elderly ESCC patients who received radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy were included. Based on different combinations of Alb and LMR levels, the SIS was divided into 3 groups, SIS = 0 (n = 79), SIS = 1 (n = 71) and SIS = 2 (n = 16). The Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to assess prognosis. Time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (t-ROC) curves were used to compare the prognostic accuracy of the SIS with that of Alb, LMR, neutrophil-to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII). RESULTS Decreased Alb and LMR were both associated with shorter OS, whereas a lower SIS was significantly associated with better outcomes. The OS of SIS = 0, SIS = 1 and SIS = 2 was 28.0 ± 2.9, 16.0 ± 2.8 and 10.0 ± 7.0 months, respectively (p = 0.000). Similar results were also observed for PFS. Multivariate analysis of the model with SIS revealed that the SIS was a significant independent biomarker for predicting OS and PFS. The nomogram showed that the C-index was improved to 0.677 when the SIS factor was incorporated. Furthermore, the 3-year OS rates for patients in the SIS-high group (SIS = 1 and SIS = 2) undergoing concurrent radiotherapy with a single agent (CCRT-1) and concurrent radiotherapy with two agents (CCRT-2) were 42% and 15%, respectively (p = 0.039). The t-ROC curve showed that the SIS was more sensitive than other prognostic factors for predicting overall survival. CONCLUSION The SIS may be a useful prognostic marker in elderly patients with ESCC receiving radiotherapy alone or chemoradiotherapy. The SIS showed a better predictive ability for OS than the continuous variable Alb and could stratify patient prognosis in different therapeutic regimens. CCRT-1 may be the best treatment for SIS-high patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Systemic inflammation has been reported to be associated with cancer progression and metastasis. Systemic inflammation score (SIS), calculated from preoperative serum albumin level and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio, has been shown to be a novel prognostic factor for several types of tumors. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of the SIS in patients with pT2-4 resectable gastric cancer (GC). METHODS Total 97 patients with pT2-4 GC who underwent curative surgery from 322 cases between 2009 and 2015 in Fukushima Medical University Hospital were included. We performed univariate and multivariate analyses to evaluate the usefulness of preoperative SIS and other prognostic factors for relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS The higher SIS score was associated with undifferentiated cancer and recurrence. Univariate analysis of RFS identified deeper tumor invasion and higher SIS were significant risk factors and multivariate analysis revealed that both of them were independent prognostic factors for RFS. As for OS, age, tumor invasion, SIS and LNR were significantly correlated with RFS. In multivariate analysis, tumor invasion, SIS and LNR were independent prognostic factors for OS. CONCLUSIONS SIS was an independent prognostic factor for RFS and OS in pT2-4 resectable gastric cancer patients who underwent curative gastrectomy.

Abstract
Background Brain metastases (BM) from non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common brain malignancy. Systemic inflammation biomarkers have recently been evaluated as prognosis indicators in several tumors. The combination of these markers has not been evaluated in NSCLC with BM yet. Here, we explored the predictive value of pretreatment inflammatory biomarkers and established a novel, clinically applicable prognostic index for NSCLC patients with BM. Methods A retrospective investigation of 951 NSCLC patients newly diagnosed with BM at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center was conducted. We randomly divided patients into a training cohort (n = 674) or validation cohort (n = 277). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was carried out to obtain the optimal cut-off values of pretreatment systemic inflammatory indexes. The associations between serum biomarkers and overall survival (OS) were analyzed by Kaplan–Meier curves and Cox proportional models. The resulting prediction model has been externally verified through the validation cohort. Results The optimal cut-off value of the neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in predicting OS was 4.71, while the clinical standard of 40 mg/L was chosen as the optimal cut-off value of albumin. Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that patients receiving local treatment, chemotherapy, a NLR < 4.71 and albumin ≥ 40 mg/l independently predicted improved survival. We combined the two inflammatory indexes (NLR and albumin level) to establish the modified systemic inflammation score (mSIS) which divides patients into low risk, medium risk or high-risk groups. The 1-year OS rates of three groups were 59.7%, 40.5% and 29.4%, respectively in the training cohort. The same result was verified in the validation cohort with the 1-year OS rates 69.7%, 47.0% and 7.7%, respectively. The mSIS exhibited better discrimination power than the American Joint Committee on Cancer’s (AJCC) 7th T + N staging system in the training cohort (Harrell’s concordance index (C-index): 0.744 vs 0.502, P < 0.05), and the discrimination was also superior to that of AJCC’s 7th T + N staging system in the validation cohort (C-index: 0.724 vs 0.527, P < 0.05). The 1-year and 2-year OS rates of the AUC also exhibited superior survival predictive ability to that of the AJCC’s 7th T + N staging system in NSCLC patients with BM. Conclusion The pretreatment mSIS may be an independent prognostic factor for OS in NSCLC patients with BM and warrants further research.

Abstract
PURPOSE Surgery in elderly patients with esophageal cancer is challenging due to high mortality and limited survival. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of curative esophagectomy in elderly patients with esophageal cancer. METHODS This study included 77 and 112 patients with esophageal cancer aged ≥ 70 and 40-64 years, respectively, who underwent R0 esophagectomy between January 1998 and December 2016. Patient characteristics, intraoperative outcomes, postoperative complications, and long-term survival were compared. RESULTS The proportions of comorbid diseases (85.7% vs. 57.1%; P < 0.001), the American Society of Anesthesiologists score (1/2/3; 2.6%/94.8%/2.6% vs. 42.9%/57.1%/0%; P < 0.001), the preoperative systemic inflammation score (SIS) (0/1/2; 20.8%/48.1%/31.2% vs. 38.4%/38.4%/23.2%; P = 0.036), and postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo grade ≥ III) (33.8% vs. 20.5%; P = 0.041) were significantly higher in the elderly group than those in the non-elderly group. However, long-term overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival were not significantly different between the groups. On multivariate analysis, SIS (hazard ratio, 3.06; P = 0.037) and severe postoperative complications (hazard ratio, 2.01; P = 0.039) were significantly correlated with OS in the elderly group. CONCLUSIONS As SIS and severe postoperative complications lead to poor prognosis after R0 esophagectomy in elderly patients, selecting appropriate patients for esophagectomy and preventing severe postoperative complications is essential.

Abstract
Background/aim Despite the use of ultrasound guidance, a significant part of thyroid biopsies are nondiagnostic (ND). We aimed to investigate the utility of the preoperative modified systemic inflammation score (mSIS) to predict malignancies in patients with persistent ND thyroid nodules (TNs). Materials and methods Records of 924 patients underwent thyroidectomy between September 2016 and May 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. The calculation of mSIS was as follows: mSIS 0 [patients with albumin (ALB) ≥ 4.0 g/dL and lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) ≥ 3.4], mSIS 1 [ALB < 4.0 g/dL or LMR < 3.4], and mSIS 2 [ALB < 4.0 g/dL and LMR < 3.4]. Results One hundred and thirty-six patients were included in the study. Of the patients with a median age of 49 (21–81) years, 26 (19.1%) were male, and 110 (80.9%) were female. Besides low lymphocyte count (P = 0.03), and ALB levels (P < 0.01), higher BMI (P = 0.02) were also associated with malignancy. In patients classified as mSIS 2, 1 and 0; malignancy rates were 100%, 25.8%, and 16.1%, respectively. The association between preoperative mSIS and thyroid malignancies was statistically significant (P < 0.01). Conclusion We recommend that when patients with persistent ND TNs are assigned to mSIS 2 or 1, surgery should not be delayed due to the risk of malignancy.

Abstract
Background Outcomes are poorer in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients with BRAF V600E mutations than those without it, but the effect of these mutations on treatment response is unclear. This real-world study assessed the effects of antiangiogenic-based treatment and systemic inflammatory factors on outcomes in patients with BRAF V600-mutated mCRC. Methods This real-world, multicenter, retrospective, observational study included patients with BRAF V600-mutated mCRC treated in eight hospitals in Spain. The primary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS); overall response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) were also assessed. The effect of first- and second-line treatment type on OS, PFS, ORR, and DCR were evaluated, plus the impact of systemic inflammatory markers on these outcomes. A systemic inflammation score (SIS) of 1–3 was assigned based on one point each for platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) ≥200, neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) ≥3, and serum albumin < 3.6 g/dL. Results Of 72 patients, data from 64 were analyzed. After a median of 69.1 months, median OS was 11.9 months and median first-line PFS was 4.4 months. First-line treatment was triplet chemotherapy-antiangiogenic (12.5%), doublet chemotherapy-antiangiogenic (47.2%), doublet chemotherapy-anti-EGFR (11.1%), or doublet chemotherapy (18.1%). Although first-line treatment showed no significant effect on OS, antiangiogenic-based regimens were associated with prolonged median PFS versus non-antiangiogenic regimens. Negative predictors of survival with antiangiogenic-based treatment were NLR, serum albumin, and SIS 1–3, but not PLR. Patients with SIS 1–3 showed significantly prolonged PFS with antiangiogenic-based treatment versus non-antiangiogenic-based treatment, while those with SIS=0 showed no PFS benefit. Conclusions Antiangiogenic-based regimens, SIS, NLR, and albumin were predictors of survival in patients with mCRC, while SIS, NLR and serum albumin may predict response to antiangiogenic-based chemotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Systemic inflammation and interactions with host-tumor are currently identified as a hallmark of cancer. The purpose of this study was to assess the prognostic value of preoperative modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS), systemic inflammation score (SIS) and "lymphocyte C-reactive protein score" (LCS) in gastric cancer (GC) patients. METHODS 358 GC patients were enrolled in this retrospective study. Kaplan-Meier method, multivariate Cox regression analysis, time-dependent receiver operating characteristics analysis (ROC), concordance index (C-index), and Akaike information criterion (AIC) were applied for assessments of the prognostic values. RESULTS Preoperative increased mGPS, SIS and LCS were all significantly linked with unfavorable overall survival using the Kaplan-Meier method (P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis proved that SIS was the only independent indicator among these three scoring systems. At the 4th-month point postoperatively, the time-dependent ROC curves of SIS and LCS crossed the curve of mGPS and were consistently superior to that of mGPS thereafter. The model incorporating SIS had higher C-index and smaller AIC than did the model without SIS or the models with mGPS or LCS. CONCLUSION Preoperative SIS exceeded both the mGPS and LCS and was the most clinically promising and feasible prognostic scoring system for GC patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Approximately 20% of the thyroid biopsies render an indeterminate (ID) cytology. We evaluated the diagnostic value of preoperative modified systemic inflammation score (mSIS) in predicting the malignancy of ID thyroid nodules (TNs). METHODS Data of 162 patients with indeterminate TNs were examined retrospectively. The mSIS was calculated as follows: mSIS 0 [patients with albumin (ALB) ≥ 4.0 g/dL and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) ≥ 3.4], mSIS 1 [ALB < 4.0 g/dL or LMR < 3.4], and mSIS 2 [ALB < 4.0 g/dL and LMR < 3.4]. RESULTS Patients were classified into mSIS 0 (n = 105), mSIS 1 (n = 34) and mSIS 2 (n = 23) groups. The malignancy rates for the mSIS 0, 1 and 2 groups were 34.3%, 64.7% and 100% respectively. Preoperative mSIS was significantly associated with the presence of thyroid malignancy (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS If the mSIS of patients with ID cytology is 1 or 2, appropriate surgical treatment should be performed without delay, due to the increased risk of malignancy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Curative treatment for gastric cancer (GC) comprising gastrectomy with systematic lymph node dissection can result in postoperative complications. Postoperative pneumonia is sometimes fatal, like surgery-related complications such as anastomotic leakage. In this retrospective study, we analyzed a multi-institutional collaborative dataset with the aim of identifying predictors of postgastrectomy pneumonia. METHODS From a retrospective database of 3,484 patients who had undergone gastrectomy for GC at nine Japanese institutions between 2010 and 2014, 1,415 patients who met all eligibility criteria were identified as eligible for analysis. Predictive values of 31 candidate variables for postoperative pneumonia were assessed. RESULTS Forty-two patients (3.0%) had grade II or higher postoperative pneumonia. Preoperative systemic inflammation score (SIS) had the greatest area under the curve (0.655) for predicting postoperative pneumonia (optimal cutoff value = 2). The odds ratio (OR) of high SISs associated with postoperative pneumonia was 3.10 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.54-6.07; p < 0.001). Multivariate binomial logistic analysis identified high SIS as an independent risk factor for postoperative pneumonia (OR, 2.31; 95% CI, 1.19-4.48; p = 0.013). A forest plot revealed that ORs of high SISs were highest in female patients. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate that the preoperative SIS may serve as a simple predictor of postgastrectomy pneumonia, assisting physicians' efforts to take preventive measures against this complication.

Abstract
AIM We examined whether the perioperative systemic inflammation score (SIS), which describes systemic inflammation and/or malnutrition, affected the tumor recurrence and survival in advanced gastric cancer patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study retrospectively analyzed 160 patients with stage II/III gastric cancer who underwent curative resection at the Kanagawa Cancer Center. The SIS was evaluated before surgery, one week after surgery and one month after surgery, as determined by the serum albumin level (cut-off value=4.0 g/dl) and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (cut-off value=4.44). RESULTS A high SIS at one month after surgery was identified as an independent predictor for overall survival [hazard ratio (HR)=2.143, p=0.020] and showed a marginal significance for the relapse-free survival (HR=1.814, p=0.053) in multivariate analyses. CONCLUSION The SIS at one month after surgery is a useful biomarker for predicting the long-term outcome in patients with advanced gastric cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to assess the prognostic significance of preoperative systemic inflammation score (SIS) on patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). METHODS A total of 357 ESCC patients who accepted radical esophagectomy between January 2008 and December 2009 at our institution were recruited in the analysis. The cut-off finder application was used to calculate the optimal cutoff values. The Chi-squared test or Fisher's exact test were used to analyze categorical variables. Overall survival (OS) was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test. Multivariate analysis was calculated using Cox regression analysis model. A model combining SIS was created and its performance was evaluated using the Akaike information criterion (AIC) and concordance index (C-index). RESULTS The median follow-up time was 58 months (range, 1-84 months). The 5-year OS rate was 50% (95% CI, 49.94-50.06%). The optimal cut-off values for preoperative neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) and serum albumin (Alb) were 2.27, 3.79 and 36.55, respectively. Univariate analyses revealed that gender (P = 0.047), T stage (P < 0.001), N stage (P < 0.001), vascular invasion (P < 0.001), tumor location (P = 0.018), tumor length(P < 0.001), NLR (P = 0.006), LMR (P = 0.007), serum Alb (P = 0.001), and SIS (P < 0.001) were significantly associated with OS. Independent prognostic factors for OS were T stage, N stage, tumor location, tumor length, and SIS. However, NLR was not an independent prognostic factor in multivariate analysis. The model combining SIS had smaller AIC and higher C-index compared to the model without SIS, which suggesting that the adding the SIS to the multivariate model increasing the predictive accuracy of the OS in the ESCC patients treated with radical esophagectomy and 3-field lymphadenectomy (3-FL). CONCLUSIONS SIS may treat as a novel prognostic factor than NLR for ESCC patients who underwent radical esophagectomy and 3-FL. However, Larger-scale studies are needed to validate these findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The systemic inflammation score (SIS), based on preoperative serum albumin (Alb) level and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), has been shown to be a novel prognostic score for some tumors. We investigate the prognostic value of the SIS in patients with resectable gastric cancer (GC). METHODS Patients with GC who underwent curative resection between December 2008 and December 2013 were included. Time-dependent receiver operating characteristics analysis (t-ROC), concordance index (C-index) and AUC were used to compare the prognostic impact. RESULTS Totally, 1786 patients with resectable GC were included in the study. By multivariate analysis, the SIS was not an independent prognostic factor. However, the normal Alb level (≥ 40 g/l) and LMR ≥ 3.4 both remained independent protective factors for GC (both P < 0.05). Due to the similar survival of patients with LMR ≥ 3.4 and LMR < 3.4 in the normal Alb group, we combined the two subgroups to establish the modified SIS (mSIS). Multivariate analysis revealed that the mSIS was the only significant independent biomarker (P < 0.05). The t-ROC curve and C-index for the mSIS were superior to those of the SIS throughout the observation period. Furthermore, the AUC of the mSIS was significantly greater than that of the SIS at 3 and 5 years after operation (both P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The preoperative mSIS is a novel, simple and useful prognostic factor for postoperative survival in patients with GC and can be used as a part of the preoperative risk stratification process to improve the prediction of clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Background The modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS) and the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) are conventional inflammation-based scores for colorectal cancer (CRC). The systemic inflammation score (SIS) has been shown to be more informative than the mGPS in CRC. The albumin-NLR, composed of albumin and the NLR, can also be a candidate for a valuable inflammation score. However, about the utility of the mGPS, SIS, and albumin-NLR for CRC patients who have received radical resections remains unclear. Methods This study enrolled 877 CRC patients, who underwent radical surgical resection between January 1, 2007 and December 31, 2014. The prognostic values of the mGPS, SIS, and albumin-NLR were compared by the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, multivariate Cox regression modelling, and the time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curve analysis (ROC). Results In the Kaplan-Meier analysis, all three inflammation scores were significantly associated with overall survival (OS) in the group including all the patients (mGPS, p = 0.016; SIS, p < 0.001; albumin-NLR, p = 0.007) and in the left-sided colon tumour subgroup (mGPS, p = 0.029; SIS p = 0.0013; albumin-NLR, p = 0.001). In the right-sided colon tumour subgroup, only the albumin-NLR was associated with OS (p = 0.048). The albumin-NLR was the only independent prognostic factor of the three scores for OS in the multivariate survival analysis. Conclusions The albumin-NLR outperformed both the SIS and mGPS in predicting OS in CRC patients undergoing radical resection.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the clinical significance of systemic inflammation score (SIS) and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients who underwent esophagectomy. Records from 206 patients with histologically diagnosed ESCC who underwent esophagectomy at Qilu Hospital of Shandong University from January 2007 to December 2008 were retrospectively reviewed. The median disease-free survival (DFS) of this cohort was 32.3 months and 5-year DFS was 34.5 %. The median overall survival (OS) was 39.5 months and 5-year OS was 40.8 %. We found that high SIS was significantly associated with increased tumor length (p = 0.021), increased depth of invasion (p = 0.001), lymph node metastasis (p = 0.038), and advanced pathological stage (p = 0.004). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed that both high SIS and low PNI were significantly associated with inferior DFS (for the SIS, p = 0.005; for the PNI, p = 0.003) and OS (for the SIS, p = 0.007; for the PNI, p = 0.002). In multivariate analysis, SIS was an independent prognostic indicator for both DFS and OS. However, PNI was not an independent prognosticator in multivariate analysis. SIS was a novel and promising inflammation-based prognostic score than PNI in ESCC patients who underwent esophagectomy.
