| Abstract | Purpose We aimed to identify effective routinely collected laboratory biomarkers for predicting postoperative outcomes in surgically treated spinal metastases and attempted to establish an effective prediction model. Methods This study included 268 patients with spinal metastases surgically treated at a single institution. We evaluated patient laboratory biomarkers to determine trends to predict survival. The markers included white blood cell (WBC) count, platelet count, neutrophil count, lymphocyte count, hemoglobin, albumin, alkaline phosphatase, creatinine, total bilirubin, calcium, international normalized ratio (INR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR). A nomogram based on laboratory markers was established to predict postoperative 90-day and 1-year survival. The discrimination and calibration were validated using concordance index (C-index), area under curves (AUC) from receiver operating characteristic curves, and calibration curves. Another 47 patients were used as a validation group to test the accuracy of the nomogram. The prediction accuracy of the nomogram was compared to Tomita, revised Tokuhashi, modified Bauer, and Skeletal Oncology Research Group machine-learning (SORG ML). Results WBC, lymphocyte count, albumin, and creatinine were shown to be the independent prognostic factors. The four predictive laboratory markers and primary tumor, were incorporated into the nomogram to predict the 90-day and 1-year survival probability. The nomogram performed good with a C-index of 0.706 (0.702–0.710). For predicting 90-day survival, the AUC in the training group and the validation group was 0.740 (0.660–0.819) and 0.795 (0.568–1.000), respectively. For predicting 1-year survival, the AUC in the training group and the validation group was 0.765 (0.709–0.822) and 0.712 (0.547–0.877), respectively. Our nomogram seems to have better predictive accuracy than Tomita, revised Tokuhashi, and modified Bauer, alongside comparable prediction ability to SORG ML. Conclusions Our study confirmed that routinely collected laboratory markers are closely associated with the prognosis of spinal metastases. A nomogram based on primary tumor, WBC, lymphocyte count, albumin, and creatinine, could accurately predict postoperative survival for patients with spinal metastases. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
