Peripheral blood immunoinflammatory biomarkers: prospective predictors of postoperative long-term survival and chronic postsurgical pain in breast cancer

BackgroundTumor progression and chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) in patients with breast cancer are both significantly influenced by inflammation. The associations between immunoinflammatory biomarkers and long-term survival, as well as CPSP, remain ambiguous. This study examined the predictive valu...

description BackgroundTumor progression and chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) in patients with breast cancer are both significantly influenced by inflammation. The associations between immunoinflammatory biomarkers and long-term survival, as well as CPSP, remain ambiguous. This study examined the predictive value of immunoinflammatory biomarkers for both long-term survival and CPSP.MethodsData on the clinicopathological characteristics and perioperative peripheral blood immunoinflammatory biomarkers of 80 patients who underwent breast cancer surgery were retrospectively collected. Optimal cut-off values for preoperative immunoinflammatory biomarkers, including the preoperative systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and pan-immune-inflammation value (PIV), were established via receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Kaplan−Meier curves and Cox regression analysis were used to evaluate the relationships between preoperative immunoinflammatory biomarkers and long-term survival. The relationships among the perioperative neutrophil count (NEU), monocyte count (MONO), lymphocyte count (LYM), platelet count (PLT), SII, SIRI, NLR, PIV, dynamic changes in peripheral blood cell counts, and CPSP were further assessed using logistic regression analysis.ResultsKaplan−Meier curves revealed a considerable prolongation of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) in the low preoperative SII, SIRI, NLR, and PIV groups. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that only an elevated preoperative SIRI was an independent risk factor for postoperative DFS (HR=8.890, P=0.038). The incidence of CPSP was 28.75%. Univariate logistic regression analysis revealed that body mass index (BMI), postoperative NEU, MONO, SIRI, and PIV were negatively correlated with the occurrence of CPSP, whereas subsequent multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that only BMI was independently associated with CPSP (OR=0.262, P=0.023).ConclusionElevated preoperative SIRI was an independent risk factor for poor DFS in breast cancer patients after surgery. In contrast, perioperative immunoinflammatory biomarkers had limited potential for predicting CPSP in patients who underwent breast cancer surgery.
