Overview

Meta-analysis reveals GNRI significantly predicts postoperative complications and overall survival in pancreatic cancer patients.

Key Points

  • Lower geriatric nutritional risk index is linked to worse overall survival in pancreatic cancer patients, with a hazard ratio of 1.92.
  • Analysis of ten studies indicates a strong correlation between lower GNRI and higher incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula.
  • No significant association was observed between GNRI and post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage among patients with pancreatic cancer.
  • Findings suggest GNRI could serve as a valuable predictor, but further validation in multicenter studies is essential.
