Prognostic impact of the high-sensitivity modified Glasgow prognostic score in patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer

Objective: The present study compared the prognostic value of the Glasgow prognostic score (GPS), modified GPS (mGPS), high-sensitivity mGPS (HS-mGPS), neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), prognostic index (PI), and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) in patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Materials and Methods: This retrospective study included 327 consecutive patients with resectable NSCLC with a follow.-up period. >5. years. Initially, the HS-mGPS was directly compared with the GPS and mGPS in terms of their ability to predict survival in patients with resectable NSCLC. Second, inflammation.-based scores, including the HS-mGPS, NLR, PLR, PI, and PNI, were analyzed preoperatively using multivariate Cox analysis. Clinical characteristics reflecting cancer progression were also analyzed. Results: Elevated GPS (P Conclusion: These results suggest that the HS-mGPS might have a greater prognostic impact than the GPS, mGPS, NLR, PLR, PI, or PNI in patients with resectable NSCLC.
