The impact of low serum cholinesterase levels on survival in patients with colorectal cancer

Abstract

Purpose

Nutritional and inflammatory status have been associated with postoperative recurrence and poor survival in patients with colorectal cancer. The aim of the present study is to investigate the relationship between serum cholinesterase levels and postoperative outcomes among patients who underwent curative resection for colorectal cancer.

Methods

The study comprised 174 patients who had undergone curative resection for colorectal cancer. We explored the relationship between preoperative serum cholinesterase levels and disease-free survival and overall survival after curative resection. Then patients were divided into the high-cholinesterase group (n = 102) and the low-cholinesterase group (n = 72) to analyze their clinicopathological variables including other nutritional markers and systemic inflammatory responses.

Results

In multivariate analysis, lymph node metastasis (P = 0.011) and serum cholinesterase levels (P < 0.01) were independent predictors of disease-free survival, while lymph node metastasis (P = 0.013), serum cholinesterase levels (P < 0.01), and carbohydrate antigen19-9 (P = 0.022) were independent predictors of overall survival. In the low-cholinesterase group, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, (P = 0.021), C-reactive protein to albumin ratio (P < 0.01), and distant metastasis (P < 0.01) were higher, and prognostic nutritional index (P < 0.01) was lower compared with the high-cholinesterase group.

Conclusion

Preoperative low serum cholinesterase levels can be a prognostic factor for postoperative recurrence and poor prognosis in patients after curative resection for colorectal cancer, suggesting an important role of cholinesterase in the assessment of nutritional and inflammatory status in cancer patients.
