ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
In this study, we analyzed the correlation between the preoperative plasma lycopene levels, postoperative adverse complications of chemoradiotherapy, and nutritional risk scores in patients with laryngeal carcinoma.METHODS:
A total of 114 patients with laryngeal carcinoma and 114 healthy respondents were enrolled in this study. The patients with laryngeal carcinoma were divided into two groups 62 patients with laryngeal carcinoma, with an NRS2002 score higher than 3 points and whose diet contained lycopene, were enrolled in the observation group, and 52 patients with laryngeal carcinoma during the corresponding time period, whose diet did not contain lycopene, were enrolled in the reference group. The immune indexes (CD4 + , CD8 + , IGA, IGM, IGG), nutritional indexes (albumin, prealbumin, transferrin), and postoperative adverse complications of chemo-radiotherapy in the two groups were recorded.RESULTS:
The lycopene levels were lower in patients with advanced tumor stage (III and IV). The diagnosis threshold of the plasma lycopene level for laryngeal carcinoma was 0.503 µmol/L. The area under the curve for plasma lycopene levels in cancer diagnosis was 0.96, with a clinical specificity of 0.943 and a sensitivity of 0.859. There was a significant negative correlation between the plasma lycopene levels and Nutrition Risk Screening (NRS) 2002 score (R2 = - 0.523, P < 0.001), which was related to the increase in NRS-2002 scores and nutritional hazards in patients with laryngeal carcinoma. The observation group showed a significant increase in nutritional and immune indices, as compared to the reference group, as well as a lower incidence of severe and serious adverse reactions to chemo-radiotherapy. Lycopene supplementation, tumor stage, NRS-2002 scores, nutritional and immune indices were all significant predictors of postoperative severe and serious adverse complications of chemoradiotherapy.CONCLUSION:
Progression of laryngeal carcinoma and severity of the side effects of the adverse complications of chemo-radiotherapy are related to the levels of lycopene.Palabras clave
