Abstract
ObjectivesTo investigate the prognostic significance of the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) in patients after radical cholecystectomy for gallbladder cancer (GBC) using overall survival (OS) as the primary outcome measure.MethodsBased on data from a multi-institutional registry of patients with GBC, significant prognostic factors after radical cholecystectomy were identified by multivariate Cox proportional hazards model. A novel staging system was established, visualized as a nomogram. The response to adjuvant chemotherapy was compared between patients in different subgroups according to the novel staging system.ResultsOf the 1072 GBC patients enrolled, 691 was randomly selected in the discovery cohort and 381 in the validation cohort. SII>510 was found to be an independent predictor of OS (hazard ratio [HR] 1.90, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.42-2.54). Carbohydrate antigen 199(CA19-9), tumor differentiation, T stage, N stage, margin status and SII were involved in the nomogram. The nomogram showed a superior prediction compared with models without SII (1-, 3-, 5-year integrated discrimination improvement (IDI):2.4%, 4.1%, 5.4%, P
