      • Abstract

      Background:
      Metastatic lung adenocarcinoma patients have poor prognosis. Many factors are associated with the prognosis of lung cancer patients, including nutrition status. Geriatric nutrition risk index (GNRI) is a simplified, objective screening parameter for nutrition risk in geriatric patients. The aim of this study was to assess the prognostic value of pretreatment GNRI in geriatric patients with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma, which has not been reported before.


      Method:
      The clinical and pathological data of 144 consecutive geriatric patients with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma between January 2011 and May 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The pretreatment GNRI was calculated as follows: GNRI=1.489
