| Abstract | Background Esophageal cancer is the 6th most common cancer in terms of incidence and the 4th most common cause of mortality in China. Given the limited survival outcomes observed in patients with locally advanced disease managed exclusively with surgical intervention, postoperative treatment is critically important. This study sought to assess the prognostic value of total cholesterol (TC) levels and the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) in patients undergoing postoperative chemotherapy for esophageal cancer. Methods A total of 101 patients who underwent postoesophagectomy chemotherapy were included in this retrospective analysis. PNI values for prechemotherapy were calculated for each patient [PNI = albumin + 5 × lymphocyte count] and TC. The optimal cutoff values for these indices were calculated from the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Patients were stratified into three groups on the basis of their PNI and TC levels. A novel nutritional prognostic index, termed the cholesterol-dependent nutritional prognostic index (CPNI), was developed on the basis of the PNI and TC. Univariate and multivariate Cox analyses were employed to determine the associations between each indicator and clinical outcomes. Results The prechemotherapy PNI, TC level, and TNM stage became independent risk factors for OS (p < 0.05). Patients in the high PNI-high TC group had significantly improved DFS and OS compared with those in the low PNI-low TC group (p < 0.001) and had a lower early recurrence rate (P = 0.008). In contrast, patients with a high CPNI had a higher mortality rate. Conclusion The prechemotherapy PNI combined with TC is an accurate and useful predictor of patient prognosis. |

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.
