Project description:BackgroundPrevious studies on the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), which is based on platelet, neutrophil and lymphocyte counts, as a prognostic marker in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) yielded inconsistent results. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic and clinicopathological role of SII in CRC via meta-analysis.MethodsA comprehensive literature survey was performed on PubMed, Web of Science, Embase and the Cochrane Library databases to include studies published up to 6 April 2020. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were computed to estimate the prognostic and clinicopathological value of SII in CRC.ResultsA total of 12 studies published between 2016 and 2019 were included in our meta-analysis. The combined analysis showed that high SII levels were significantly associated with worse overall survival (OS; HR = 1.61, 95% CI = 1.21-2.13, p = 0.001) and progression-free survival (HR = 1.74, 95% CI = 1.26-2.39, p = 0.001) in CRC. Moreover, elevated SII was also correlated with poor tumor differentiation (OR = 1.60, 95% CI = 1.27-2.02, p < 0.001), presence of distant metastasis (OR = 2.27, 95% CI = 1.10-4.67, p = 0.026), ECOG PS of 1-2 (OR = 1.98, 95% CI = 1.39-2.84, p < 0.001) and tumor size ⩾5 cm (OR = 1.49, 95% CI = 1.18-1.88, p = 0.001). However, high SII was not significantly associated with sex, tumor location, lymph node metastasis, or age in patients with CRC.ConclusionOur meta-analysis indicated that high SII levels predicted poor prognosis in CRC. In addition, an elevated SII was also associated with clinical factors, implying higher malignancy of the disease.

Project description:BackgroundSystemic immune-inflammation index (SII) has recently emerged as a biomarker for the prognosis of a variety of malignant tumors. However, the role of SII in bladder cancer (BC) remains unclear. To this end, we performed a pooled analysis to investigate the prognostic value of preoperative SII in patients with BC.MethodsA comprehensive search of electronic databases (PubMed/Medline, Web of Science, Scopus, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials) was conducted to determine the eligible studies that were published until January 2022. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to evaluate the association between preoperative SII and the prognosis and clinicopathological characteristics of BC.ResultsTen studies with 7,087 patients were included in this analysis. SII was observed to be correlated with inferior overall survival (HR = 1.22, 95% CI 1.04-1.44, p = 0.013), cancer-specific survival (HR = 1.68, 95% CI 1.14-2.47, p = 0.009), and recurrence-free survival (HR = 1.29, 95% CI 1.03-1.61, p = 0.027). An increased preoperative SII was also associated with poor tumor differentiation, higher tumor stage, presence of lymph node involvement, and tumor size ≥3 cm (all p < 0.05).ConclusionsAn elevated preoperative SII is significantly associated with worse survival outcomes and adverse pathological features in patients with BC. Hence, SII may serve as a strong independent prognostic predictor for patients with BC after surgery.

Project description:The prognostic value of the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) in patients with pancreatic cancer is conflicting according to previous investigations. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to explore the association between SII and pancreatic cancer prognosis. Electronic databases were searched for studies exploring the association of SII with prognostic outcomes in pancreatic cancer. The endpoints were overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), recurrence-free survival (RFS), progression-free survival (PFS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), and clinicopathological parameters. The prognostic value of SII was estimated by hazard ratio (HR) or odds ratio (OR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI). Nine studies containing 11 cohorts with 2,365 subjects in total were included in this meta-analysis. Elevated SII was associated with poor OS (HR=1.50, 95% CI=1.15-1.96, p=0.002), RFS/PFS/DFS (HR=1.52, 95% CI=1.01-2.28, p=0.045), and CSS (HR=2.60, 95% CI=1.65-4.09, p < 0.001) in patients with pancreatic cancer. Additionally, there was no significant association between SII and other parameters in pancreatic cancer such as sex, tumor location, lymph node metastasis, tumor-node-metastasis stage, vascular invasion, and grade. This meta-analysis suggested that elevated SII was a significant prognostic marker for short-term and long-term survival outcomes in patients with pancreatic cancer.

Project description:BackgroundMany studies have explored the value of the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) in predicting the prognosis of patients with breast cancer (BC); however, their findings remain controversial. Consequently, we performed the present meta-analysis to accurately identify the role of SIRI in predicting BC prognosis.MethodsPubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases were comprehensively searched between their inception and February 10, 2024. The significance of SIRI in predicting overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in BC patients was analyzed by calculating pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs).ResultsEight articles involving 2,997 patients with BC were enrolled in the present study. According to our combined analysis, a higher SIRI was markedly associated with dismal OS (HR = 2.43, 95%CI = 1.42-4.15, p < 0.001) but not poor DFS (HR = 2.59, 95%CI = 0.81-8.24, p = 0.107) in patients with BC. Moreover, based on the pooled results, a high SIRI was significantly related to T3-T4 stage (OR = 1.73, 95%CI = 1.40-2.14, p < 0.001), N1-N3 stage (OR = 1.61, 95%CI = 1.37-1.91, p < 0.001), TNM stage III (OR = 1.63, 95%CI = 1.34-1.98, p < 0.001), and poor differentiation (OR = 1.25, 95%CI = 1.02-1.52, p = 0.028).ConclusionAccording to our results, a high SIRI significantly predicted poor OS in patients with BC. Furthermore, elevated SIRI was also remarkably related to increased tumor size and later BC tumor stage. The SIRI can serve as a novel prognostic biomarker for patients with BC.

Project description:The systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) is a useful tool for predicting prognosis in some types of cancer. In this retrospective study, we evaluated the efficacy of SIRI in predicting overall survival in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients following local or systemic therapy. A cutoff value of 1.05 was identified for SIRI using ROC analysis in a training patient cohort. In the validation cohort, survival analysis revealed that median overall survival was longer in HCC patients with SIRI scores < 1.05 than in those with scores ≥ 1.05. Cox analysis of the validation cohort demonstrated that SIRI was associated with overall survival and was more predictive of overall survival that the AFP level or Child-Pugh score. However, SIRI and Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage were equally effective for predicting survival. In addition, HCC patients with BCLC stage C had higher SIRI scores and poorer overall survival. SIRI also correlated with liver function parameters. Thus SIRI may be a convenient, low cost and reliable tumor marker for predicting prognosis in HCC patients.

Project description:BackgroundThere are many studies regarding the use of systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) to help predict oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) prognosis, but findings have been inconsistent. The present meta-analysis was conducted to determine whether SII could contribute to predicting OSCC prognosis.MethodsPubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and Web of Science databases were thoroughly searched from their inceptions through August 20, 2023. The role of SII in predicting OSCC prognosis was determined through combined hazard ratios (HRs) with relevant 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Correlations of SII with clinicopathological characteristics of OSCC patients were analyzed based on combined odds ratios (ORs) with 95% CIs.ResultsThis meta-analysis utilized 11 articles in total, involving 3,464 patients. According to the results, an elevated SII was markedly associated with dismal overall survival (OS) (HR=1.85, 95%CI=1.48-2.29, p<0.001) and poor disease-free survival (DFS) (HR=1.77, 95%CI=1.20-2.61, p=0.004) of OSCC. Moreover, a higher SII was markedly correlated with stage T3-T4 (OR=2.47, 95%CI=1.40-4.37, p=0.002), TNM stage III-IV (OR=2.29, 95%CI=1.53-3.44, p<0.001), and low differentiation (OR=1.74, 95%CI=1.25-2.43, p=0.001).ConclusionAccording to the present meta-analysis, an increased SII is significantly associated with dismal OS and DFS, advanced tumor stage and poor differentiation in OSCC. SII could be a potential and important biomarker for clinical management and predicting the prognosis of patients with OSCC.Systematic review registrationhttps://inplasy.com/inplasy-2023-9-0033/), identifier INPLASY202390033.

Project description:BackgroundThe systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) is calculated via the following formula: SIRI = monocyte count × neutrophil count/lymphocyte count. The value of the SIRI in predicting the prognosis of gastric cancer (GC) remains controversial. This study revealed the precise effect of the SIRI in predicting GC prognosis through a meta-analysis.MethodsThe ability of the SIRI to predict GC prognosis was evaluated by calculating combined hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Furthermore, the combined odds ratios (ORs) and 95% CIs were determined to analyze the associations between the SIRI and the clinicopathological characteristics of patients with GC.ResultsSeven publications on a total of 1763 cases were included in this study. The SIRI threshold was between 0.58 and 1.35, and the median value was 0.85. Our pooled findings revealed that a higher SIRI was significantly linked with poor overall survival (OS) (HR = 1.87, 95% CI = 1.59-2.20, p < 0.001) and disease-free survival (DFS; HR = 1.88, 95% CI = 1.50-2.36, p < 0.001) in GC patients. However, the SIRI did not exhibit a significant association with sex (OR = 1.98, 95% CI = 0.82-4.75, p = 0.126), surgery type (OR = 0.96, 95% CI = 0.61-1.51, p = 0.847), tumor differentiation (OR = 0.75, 95% CI = 0.54-1.06, p = 0.099), or TNM stage (OR = 1.25, 95% CI = 0.34-4.62, p = 0.743) in patients with GC.ConclusionsAn elevated SIRI was significantly associated with unfavorable OS and DFS in patients with GC. Thus, the SIRI is a reliable biomarker for predicting GC prognosis in clinical practice.

Project description:Cancer cachexia affects quality of life, response to chemotherapy, and survival in many advanced cancer patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of pretreatment cachexia index (CXI) in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treated with systematic chemotherapy. Patients with advanced HCC treated with lenvatinib therapy between October 2018 and October 2020 were retrospectively studied. The CXI was calculated as (L3 skeletal muscle index) × (serum albumin)/(neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio). The association with treatment response and early adverse events within the first two months of lenvatinib therapy was investigated. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method with log-rank test. Multivariable Cox regression was used to identify the predictors of survival. A total of 116 patients (median age: 60, male: 84.5% ) with calculated CXI. They divided into two groups: high CXI (≥ 53, n = 82) and low CXI (< 53, n = 34). Patients with low CXI had a significantly lower disease control rate (61.8% vs. 89.0%, p = 0.001) and a shorter median OS (8.0 [95% CI 6.2-9.8] vs. 12.3 [95% CI 10.1-14.4] months, p = 0.002) than those with high CXI. In multivariable analysis, low CXI was independently associated with shorter OS (HR: 2.07, 95% CI: 1.17-3.65, p = 0.01) and PFS (HR: 1.84, 95% CI: 1.09-3.09, p = 0.02). Of note, during the first two months of lenvatinib therapy, anorexia (41.2% vs. 22.0%, p = 0.04) developed more frequently among patients with low CXI than those with high CXI. The CXI may be a clinically useful index for predicting poor treatment response and prognosis in patients with advanced HCC undergoing lenvatinib treatment.

Project description:BackgroundA novel inflammatory marker called the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) was applied to predict the prognosis of different cancers. However, the role of SII in prostate cancer (PCa) remains unclear. This systematic review aims to explore the prognostic role of SII in different stage PCa.MethodsWe comprehensively searched three public databases: PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library. The hazard ratios (HRs) and odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were extracted to evaluate the association between SII and the prognosis and clinicopathological characteristics in different stage PCa patients.ResultsTen studies and 7,986 patients were enrolled in our meta-analysis, 1,442 patients were diagnosed with metastatic-castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), and 6544 patients were diagnosed with non-metastatic prostate cancer (nmPCa). According to the pooled results, we found that a high SII was associated with worse overall survival (OS) in mCRPC patients (HR = 1.94, 95% CI: 1.26-3.01, p = 0.003), and a high SII was associated with biochemical recurrence-free survival (BFS) in nmPCa patients (HR = 1.85, 95% CI: 1.06-3.24, p = 0.031). But there was no significant association observed between SII and progression-free survival (PFS) in mCRPC patients (HR = 1.90, 95% CI: 0.87-4.14, p = 0.107). And we found that the high SII was associated with advanced tumor stage of PCa (OR = 2.19, 95% CI: 1.11-4.33, p = 0.024), presence of lymph node involvement (OR = 2.72, 95% CI: 1.96-3.76, p < 0.001) and Gleason score (OR = 1.27, 95% CI: 1.13-1.44, p < 0.001).ConclusionHigh SII was associated with bad OS in mCRPC patients, and associated with bad BFS and some adverse pathological features in nmPCa patients. We think SII can be a prognostic predictor for PCa patients. The application of SII will advance the diagnosis and treatment of different stage prostate cancer.
