Predictive evaluation of SIRI, SII, PNI, and GPS in cholecystostomy application in patients with acute cholecystitis

BACKGROUND: The aims of this study were to investigate the clinical significance of systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI), systemic inflammation index (SII), prognostic nutritional index (PNI), and Glasgow prognostic score (GPS) in deciding whether to perform cholecystostomy when determining if cholecystostomy is the right choice for acute cholecystitis (AC) patients. METHODS: Between January 2018 and December 2020, 126 consecutive patients with AC with and without cholecystostomy were retrospectively recruited from the Trakya University in Edirne, Turkey. Group I included AC patients with cholecystostomy and Group II included AC patients without cholecystostomy. The neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and lymphocyte/monocyte ratio (LMR) were calculated. The PNI and SII were calculated RESULTS: There is significant difference between the two groups by the comparison of SIRI, SII, PNI, and GPS values (p<0.001). In Group I, SIRI, SII, and GPS values are higher than the Group II and PNI value in Group I is lower than the Group II. Furthermore, the NLR and PLR ratios in Group I are significantly higher than Group II, and the LMR ratio in Group I is significantly lower than Group II. CONCLUSION: According to our study, we can say that NLR, PLR, SII, SIRI, and GPS are positive predictors and LMR and PNI are negative predictors for the severity of AC. Therefore, when we decide to treat AC medically, we may prefer the application of cholecystostomy tube at the beginning of hospitalization by the help of evaluating NLR, PLR, LMR, SIRI, SII, GPS, and PNI values.
