Brief summary

This retrospective study aims to analyze the impact of postoperative changes in serum uric acid (SUA) levels on the prognosis of patients undergoing pancreatic cancer resection.

Detailed description

Serum uric acid is a risk factor for gallbladder cancer in men and has a strong effect on pancreatic cancer in women. It has also been shown that elevated intracellular serum uric acid can induce an inflammatory stress response, which may promote its transformation, while elevated extracellular serum uric acidy further stimulate tumor cell proliferation, migration, and survival, and promote the development of highly aggressive cancer. In this study, the changes of serum uric acid before and after surgery was used as a prognostic marker for the survival of pancreatic cancer patients.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Overall survival3-5 yearsOverall survival was defined as the time from diagnosis to death.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Cost of hospitalization3 monthsThe cost of the first hospitalization from admission to discharge.
Length of hospital stay3 monthsThe first day of hospitalization for the first admission to the last day of discharge.
Pancreatic fistula3 monthsWhether or not pancreatic-intestinal anastomotic leakage occurred at the time of the first hospitalization.
Recurrence-free survival3-5 yearsRecurrence-free survival is the length of time from either the date of diagnosis or the start of therapy for a disease to the date of the first loco-regional or systemic recurrence.
Bleeding3 monthsWhether or not there was bleeding after the first inpatient surgery.
Abdominal cavity infection3 monthsWhether or not there was an abdominal infection after the first inpatient surgery.
Biliary fistula3 monthsWhether or not a biliary-intestinal anastomotic leak occurred at the time of the first hospitalization.
