Objective: To investigate the prognostic value of combined peripheral alanine aminotransferase to aspartate aminotransferase ratio (LSR) and fibrinogen to albumin ratio (FAR) in patients with resectable gastric cancer (rGC).Methods: From January 2014 to December 2016,155 patients with rGC who underwent radical gastrectomy in the Department of Surgery,Hongze District People's Hospital were selected.The follow-up deadline was December 2019 or the patient died.The cut-off values of LSR and FAR were calculated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve,and the relationship between LSR-FAR and clinicopathological indicators was analyzed.Cox regression model was used to analyze the influence of clinicopathological indicators on the prognosis of patients.Results: (1) The cut-off values for LSR and FAR were 1.03 and 0.084 respectively.Patients were divided into three groups:2 score group (LSR<1.03,and FAR ≥ 0.084);1 score group[(LSR ≥ 1.03,and FAR ≥ 0.084) or (LSR<1.03,and FAR<0.084)];0 score group (LSR ≥ 1.03,and FAR<0.084).(2) LSR-FAR were related to the patient's gender,age,tumor diameter,TNM stage,and tissue differentiation (all P<0.05).(3) Age (≥ 60 years old vs. <60 years old,HR:2.050,95%CI:1.098~3.830,P=0.024),TNM stage (stage Ⅲ vs. stage Ⅰ,HR:3.009,95%CI:1.455~6.222,P=0.003),the degree of differentiation (moderate or good vs. poor,HR:0.555,95%CI:0.311~0.989,P=0.046) and LSR-FAR (2 score group vs. 0 score group,HR:2.932,95%CI:1.516~5.671, P=0.001;1 score group vs. 0 score group,HR:2.319,95%CI:1.225~4.392,P=0.010) were independent risk factors on the prognosis of rGC patients.Conclusion: LSR-FAR might be an effective prognostic indicator for rGC patients.LSR<1.03and FAR ≥ 0.084 might indicate poor prognosis. |
