摘 要:BACKGROUND Previous studies have suggested that a low albumin-to-alkaline phosphatase ratio(AAPR)is associated with a lower survival rate in patients with various ***,the relationship between pretreatment AAPR and the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer(GC)remains *** To investigate the prognostic value of AAPR in distant metastatic *** A total of 191 patients with distant metastatic cancer from a single institute were enrolled in this *** clinical data,including serum albumin and alkaline phosphatase levels,were collected.A chi-square test or Fisher’s exact test was applied to evaluate the correlations between AAPR and various clinical parameters in GC *** Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazards regression model were used to evaluate the prognostic efficacy of AAPR in metastatic GC patients.A two-sided P value lower than 0.05 was considered statistically *** A receiver operating characteristic curve indicated that 0.48 was the optimal threshold value for ***≤0.48 was significantly associated with bone(P0.05)and liver metastasis(P0.05).Patients with high levels of AAPR had better survival in terms of overall survival(OS)and progression-free survival(PFS),regardless of the presence of liver/bone *** AAPR was found to be a favorable predictor of OS and PFS based on a multivariate cox regression ***-M system,constructed based on AAPR and number of metastatic sites,showed superior predictive ability relative to the number of metastatic sites for predicting *** Pretreatment AAPR may serve as an independent prognostic factor for predicting PFS and OS in patients with metastatic ***,AAPR may assist clinicians with individualizing treatment.
