Core Tip
Core Tip: Immunoinflammatory markers such as the peripheral blood neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio have gained considerable attention as prognostic markers in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). Here we conducted the first investigation of the prognostic value of Onodera’s Prognostic Nutritional Index (OPNI) for GISTs. A total of 235 GISTs were identified and included for analysis under our inclusion criteria. Our study shown that the 2- and 5-year recurrence-free survival rates of the patients with a low OPNI were 92.83% and 76.22%, respectively, whereas 100% and 98.41% were achieved by the patients with a high OPNI, which demonstrated that the preoperative OPNI is a novel and useful prognostic marker for GISTs.
