The Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index: A Key Indicator of Perioperative Outcome in Oldest-old Patients With Colorectal Cancer
Preoperative GNRI effectively identifies oldest-old patients with CRC at increased risk for postoperative complications. A GNRI ≤98 correlates with poorer nutritional status and impaired geriatric functional parameters. These findings highlight GNRI's utility as a simple, valuable tool for preoperative risk stratification, potentially guiding interventions to optimize outcomes in this vulnerable population.
