RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Prostate cancer is a common urology malignant in males, ranking second globally. The disease is especially severe when diagnosed alongside hypertension. MKI67 is an established marker of neoplastic cell proliferation in humans, but the significance of its prognostic value in patients with prostate cancer and hypertension requires further research. METHODS: In this retrospective analysis, we evaluated 296 hypertensive prostate cancer patients between March 2, 2012, and November 1, 2015. We used Cox regression models and prediction analysis to assess overall survival. Furthermore, we created a nomogram and verified its accuracy using a calibration curve. RESULTS: Of all participants, 101 (34.12%) died. Our multi-factor analysis revealed that MKI67 expression was associated with an increased hazard ratio of death (> fivefold) (Hazard Ratio 5.829, 95% CI 3.349-10.138, p value < 0.01) and progression (twofold) (HR 2.059, 95% CI 1.368-3.102, p value < 0.01). Our Lasso analysis model displayed that several factors, including heart failure, smoking, ACS, serum albumin, Gealson score, prognostic nutritional index, MKI67 expression, surgery, and stage were high risks of prostate cancer. To ensure each covariate's contribution to cancer prognosis, we created a Cox model nomogram, which accurately predicted the risk of death (C-statistic of 0.8289) and had a proper calibration plot for risk assessment. CONCLUSION: MKI67 expression predicts poor outcomes for overall mortality in prostate cancer and hypertension patients. Additionally, our cross-validated multivariate score, which includes MKI67, demonstrated accuracy efficacy of predicting prognosis.
