    AbstractPreoperative laboratory data indicators significantly affect the prognosis of a variety of tumors. Nevertheless, the combined effect of systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) on overall survival (OS) in patients with esophageal carcinoma remains unclear. Thus, we examined these associations among patients with postoperative staged T3N0M0 esophageal carcinoma. The data of 246 patients with postoperative staged T3N0M0 esophageal carcinoma from January 1, 2010, to December 31, 2022, were retrospectively analyzed. OS was measured from the date of pathological diagnosis until either death or the last follow-up. The Kaplan-Meier method and multivariate Cox regression model were used to analyze the relationship between neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), Platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), Platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (LMR), SII, PNI, and OS. The predictive value of SII and PNI as a combined index was analyzed by the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). A total of 246 patients aged 65.5 ± 7.4 years were included in this study and 181 (73.6%) were male. The univariate analysis revealed that differentiation, vessel involvement, postoperative treatment, NLR, SII, PLR, LMR, PNI were predictors of OS (P < .05). After adjusted for potential confounds, multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the differentiation, SII, PNI, and postoperative treatment were independent prognostic factors correlated with OS in patients with postoperative staged T3N0M0 esophageal carcinoma (P < .05). SII and PNI, as a combined indicator, have a higher predictive value for OS. The NLR, SII, PLR, LMR, and PNI could all be used as independent predictors of OS in patients with postoperative staged T3N0M0 esophageal carcinoma. The combination of SII and PNI can significantly improve the accuracy of prediction.Copyright © 2024 the Author(s). Published by Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.
