📌 3 Key Takeaways
🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Objectives: To compare the preoperative Red Cell Distribution Width (RDW) value in curatively-operated gastric cancer(GC) patients without receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) vs. control group, with the aim of investigating itspreoperative prognostic effect.Methods: Receiver Operator Characteristics (ROC) curve of RDW value was plotted for DFS.
📊
Key Findings & Data:The area under curve (AUC)of the RDW was 0.714 with 73.5% sensitivity and >5.5 with 71.1% specificity.

Abstract
Objectives: To compare the preoperative Red Cell Distribution Width (RDW) value in curatively-operated gastric cancer(GC) patients without receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) vs. control group, with the aim of investigating itspreoperative prognostic effect.Methods: Receiver Operator Characteristics (ROC) curve of RDW value was plotted for DFS. The area under curve (AUC)of the RDW was 0.714 with 73.5% sensitivity and >5.5 with 71.1% specificity. Patients were divided into 2 groups as RDW≤15.5 and RDW >15.5.Results: The study included 330 GC patients (37.7% female and 62.3% male) and 330 healthy controls (63.9% maleand 36.1% female). ROC curves were used to confirm the predictive role of preoperative RDW value in predicting thepresence of GC. For GC, the AUC of RDW was 0.665 with 61.3% sensitivity and 14.1 with 64% specificity. There was apositive correlation between disease stage and RDW in GC patients (Rho=0.338, p
