摘要: 目的 探讨术前血液功能指标、临床病理特征与喉鳞状细胞癌(LSCC)术后患者预后的关系,建立LSCC患者术后生存和复发时间的预测列线图。方法 回顾性分析接受初次手术治疗的530例LSCC患者的病例资料。将患者按7∶3的比例随机分为训练组(371例)和验证组(159例),基于Cox回归模型构建总生存期(OS)和无复发生存期(RFS)列线图,对列线图进行验证,并与肿瘤TNM分期进行比较。结果 多因素分析结果显示年龄、手术方式、肿瘤直径、TNM分期、颈部淋巴结转移、纤维蛋白原水平和系统免疫炎症指数与OS显著相关,手术方式、肿瘤直径、TNM分期、颈部淋巴结转移、国际标准化比值、中性粒细胞与淋巴细胞比值、血小板与淋巴细胞比值与RFS显著相关。基于上述因素构建列线图,训练组OS及RFS列线图的C-index分别为0.755和0.687,均高于TNM分期(0.657和0.582);验证组OS及RFS列线图的C-index分别为0.717和0.646,均高于TNM分期(0.599和0.528)。本列线图的受试者工作特征曲线下面积也均高于TNM分期。校准曲线显示模型具有较好的一致性。决策曲线分析显示本列线图比TNM分期具有更高的临床获益。结论 基于独立预后因素构建的LSCC术后患者的1、3、5年OS和RFS的预测列线图,该模型对指导LSCC个体化诊疗有一定的临床意义。Abstract: Objective To explore the relationship between preoperative blood indexes, clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of patients with laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma(LSCC), and to establish a nomogram for predicting survival and recurrence time of LSCC patients.Methods The clinical data of 530 patients with LSCC who received primary surgical treatment were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were randomly divided into training group and testing group according to the ratio of 7∶3. The nomograms of overall survival(OS) and recurrence-free survival(RFS) were constructed based on Cox regression model, and the nomograms were verified and compared with TNM stage.Results The results of multivariate analysis showed that age, operation mode, tumor diameter, TNM stage, cervical lymph node metastasis, fibrinogen level and systemic immune inflammation index were significantly correlated with OS, while operation mode, tumor diameter, TNM stage, cervical lymph node metastasis, international normalized ratio, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio and platelet to lymphocyte ratio were significantly correlated with RFS. The nomograms were constructed based on the above factors. The C-indexes of the nomograms of OS and RFS in the training group were 0.755 and 0.687, respectively, which were higher than those of TNM stage(0.657 and 0.582). In the testing group, the C-indexes of OS and RFS nomograms were 0.717 and 0.646, respectively, which were higher than those of TNM stage(0.599 and 0.528). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curves of these nomograms were also higher than TNM stage. The calibration curves showed that the models had good consistency. Decision curve analysis(DCA) showed that these nomograms had higher clinical benefit than TNM stage.Conclusion Based on the independent prognostic factors, the predictive nomograms of OS and RFS at 1, 3 and 5 years after LSCC were constructed, which have certain clinical significance in guiding the individualized diagnosis and treatment of LSCC.
