Comparison of nutritional risk index and body mass index in predicting survival outcomes in patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: a retrospective study

Key Points

This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of nutritional risk index and body mass index in predicting survival outcomes for patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
Retrospective analysis of patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
Comparison of nutritional risk index and body mass index
Assessment of albumin levels pre-transplant
Higher nutritional risk index correlates with lower survival outcomes
Albumin levels serve as a significant prognostic indicator
Early nutritional interventions are crucial for improving patient survival

Abstract

These findings underscore the clinical utility of prognostic indices, such as the Nutritional Risk Index and albumin levels, during the pre-transplant period, emphasizing the necessity for early nutritional interventions in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation patients.
