Zusammenfassung: | Background
The Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI), a marker of nutritional status and systemic inflammation, is a proven prognostic biomarker in some cancers. The predictive value of PNI in biliary tract cancer (BTC) has not been established.
Objective
The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the PNI and outcomes of resectable BTC.
Methods
In total, 430 patients with stage I–III resectable BTC [gallbladder cancer (GBC),
n
= 212; cholangiocarcinoma (CHO),
n
= 218] who had attended Fudan University Zhongshan Hospital were enrolled. The relationship between the PNI and clinical outcomes was evaluated both in the whole cohort and in selected subgroups.
Results
Eligible patients were classified into PNI-low (PNI |
