Key result
A high preoperative Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score (3-12) was associated with a significantly lower 1-year survival rate compared to a low score (0-2) in patients with CLTI (67% vs 100%, P=0.0043).
Why the study?
Is the Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score associated with outcomes of infrainguinal bypass surgery in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia?
Cohort (n=118)
No
Is the Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score associated with outcomes of infrainguinal bypass surgery in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia?
Absolute Event Rate: 67% vs 100%
p-value: p=0.0043
High CONUT score flags higher post-bypass mortality risk in CLTI; leaves open whether nutritional optimization improves survival.
Objective: We investigated the association between Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) scores and the outcomes of bypass surgery in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI).

Yamamoto et al. (2021) conducted a cohort in Chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) (n=118). High Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score vs. Low CONUT score was evaluated on 1-year survival rate (p=0.0043). A high preoperative Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score (3-12) was associated with a significantly lower 1-year survival rate compared to a low score (0-2) in patients with CLTI (67% vs 100%, P=0.0043).
