The primary aim of this study is to investigate the correlation between serum levels of fibrinogen-to-prealbumin ratio (FPR) and C-reactive protein-to-prealbumin ratio (CPR) and prognostic outcomes am...
The study included 159 patients with SFTS. Clinical and laboratory data were compared between the survival and death groups. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were utilized to i...
The death group exhibited significantly elevated levels of FPR and CPR compared to the survival group (...
Elevated levels of FPR and CPR serve as distinct risk factors for mortality among patients with SFTS, indicating their potential to predict an unfavorable prognosis in these patients....
Serum prealbumin has long been used as a marker of nutritional status. However, prealbumin is a negative acute phase reactant influenced by several non-nutritional-related factors including surgery, i...
This study is a concurrent retrospective design of post-operative patients (≥ 19 years of age) identified by the nutrition support service who received PN for ≥ 5 days, had a baseline and follow-up se...
Thirty patients were identified and evaluated for this study from December 1st, 2010 to July 15th, 2011. Patients included in the study had a mean age of 57 years old (range 20-82), 53% male, with a m...
These results indicate a positive change in serum prealbumin (> 2.8 mg/dL) has sufficient sensitivity (82%) to predict positive changes in nitrogen balance in the surgical oncology population. However...
Positive changes in serum prealbumin levels have previously been associated with a positive nitrogen balance (NB) in surgical patients receiving parenteral nutrition (PN); however, it is unclear if th...
Pretreatment immunological indicators and nutritional factors are associated with survival of many malignancies. This study aims to develop a prognostic nutritional score based on a combination of pre...
Patients who underwent pancreatectomy with a curative intent for PC were retrospectively enrolled. A pretreatment prognostic score was established by immunological indicators and nutritional factors t...
Pretreatment lymphocyte (<1.6 × 10...
The Co-LPPa score could accurately predict the prognosis of PC patients who underwent curative resection. The score may be helpful for preoperative therapeutic strategies....
We aimed to determine whether systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) combined with prealbumin can provide better predictive power for postoperative pneumonia in patients undergoing lung resection su...
We identified eligible patients undergoing lung resection surgery at the Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University from March 2021 to March 2022. Demographic characteristics, clinical data, and labora...
Totally 386 eligible patients were included with a median age of 62.0 years (IQR: 55.0, 68.0), and 57 (14.8%) patients presented with postoperative pneumonia within 7 days after surgery. The multivari...
Both preoperative SII and prealbumin are independent influencing factors for postoperative pneumonia after lung resection surgery. The combined detection of preoperative SII and prealbumin can signifi...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) presents a significant threat to individuals and healthcare systems due to its high recurrence rate. Accurate prognostic models are essential for improving patient outco...
We retrospectively analyzed data from 355 HCC patients who underwent radical hepatectomy at Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University between December 2012 and January 2021. Patients were randoml...
Patients were categorized into GPR-low and GPR-high groups based on a GPR value of 333.33. Significant differences in PFS and OS were observed between the two groups (both P < 0.001). Cox multivariate...
GPR emerged as an independent risk factor for both OS and PFS in HCC patients without microvascular invasion. The nomograms based on GPR demonstrated relatively robust predictive efficiency for progno...
This study aimed to evaluate the role of the C-reactive protein-to-prealbumin (CP) ratio and the C-reactive protein-to-albumin (CA) ratio as nutritional and prognostic markers. A retrospective study w...
This study aims to evaluate the impact and predictive value of the preoperative NPRI on short-term complications and long-term prognosis in patients undergoing laparoscopic radical surgery for colorec...
A total of 302 eligible CRC patients were included, assessing five inflammation-and nutrition-related markers and various clinical features for their predictive impact on postoperative outcomes. Empha...
Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified a history of abdominal surgery, prolonged surgical duration, CEA levels ≥5 ng/mL, and NPRI ≥ 3.94 × 10...
Preoperative NPRI independently predicts short-term complications and long-term prognosis in patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery, enhancing predictive accuracy when incorporated...
To investigate the lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] to prealbumin (PA) ratio and the N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ratio for the prediction of...
A 1:1 matched case-control study was performed to retrospectively analyze ACS patients who underwent PCI from January 2022 to June 2022. Patients with MACE were selected as the case group (n = 55), an...
The MACE and non-MACE groups showed statistically significant differences for time from onset to PCI, LVEF, NT-proBNP, white blood cell (WBC), Lp(a), PA, Lp(a)/PA, NT-proBNP/LVEF, number of catheteriz...
The combination of Lp(a)/PA and NT-proBNP/LVEF at admission showed good predictive value for the occurrence of MACE in ACS patients after PCI....
As people get older, the innate and acquired immunity of the elderly are affected, resulting in immunosenescence. Prealbumin (PAB), transferrin (TRF), and albumin (ALB) are commonly used markers to mo...
In our study, a total of 93 subjects (≥65 years) were recruited from Tongji Hospital between January 2015 and February 2017. According to the serum levels of these proteins (PAB, TRF, and ALB), we div...
All the low serum protein groups (PAB, TRF, and ALB) had significant decreases in the percentage of CD4+ cells, CD3...
This study suggested PAB, TRF, and ALB could be used as immunosenescence indicators. PEM might accelerate the process of immunosenescence in elderly males....
Serum prealbumin is considered to be a sensitive predictor of clinical outcomes and a quality marker for nutrition support. However, its susceptibility to inflammation restricts its usage in criticall...
This monocentric study included patients admitted to the ICU between 2009 and 2016, having at least one initial prealbumin value available. Prospectively recorded data were extracted from the electron...
