Creatinine-to-cystatin C ratio as a marker of skeletal muscle mass for predicting postoperative complications in patients undergoing gastric cancer surgery
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background: Gastric cancer patients usually suffer from skeletal muscle depletion. The serum creatinine/cystatin C ratio (CCR) is a new, simple tool that could serve as biomarker of mass. This study explored the ability preoperative CCR to predict postoperative complications in with gastric cancer.

متن کاملA New Equation to Estimate Muscle Mass from Creatinine and Cystatin C
BACKGROUND With evaluation for physical performance, measuring muscle mass is an important step in detecting sarcopenia. However, there are no methods to estimate muscle mass from blood sampling. METHODS To develop a new equation to estimate total-body muscle mass with serum creatinine and cystatin C level, we designed a cross-sectional study with separate derivation and validation cohorts. T...
متن کاملImpact of comorbidities on postoperative complications in patients undergoing laparoscopy-assisted gastrectomy for gastric cancer
BACKGROUND Comorbidity is a predictor of postoperative complications (PCs) in gastrectomy. However, it remains unclear which comorbidities are predictors of PCs in patients who undergo laparoscopy-assisted gastrectomy (LAG). Clinically, insufficient lymphadenectomy (LND) is sometimes performed in high-risk patients, although the impact on PCs and outcomes remains unclear. METHODS We retrospec...

BACKGROUND Postoperative complications following gastric cancer resection remain a clinical problem. Early detection of postoperative complications is needed before critical illness develops. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of C-reactive protein/albumin ratio in patients with gastric cancer. METHODS A total of 322 patients undergoing curative (R0) gastrectomy be...
