Abstract EN
Many factors have been reported to affect the long-term survival of gastric carcinoma patients after gastrectomy; the present study took the first attempt to find out the potential role of weekday carried out surgery in the postoperative prognosis of gastric cancer patients.
463 gastric cancer patients have been followed up successfully.
Pearson χ2 test was used for univariate analyses.
Survival curves were constructed by using Kaplan-Meier method and evaluated by using the log-rank test.
The Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to find out the risk factors, and subgroup analysis was conducted to rule out confounding factors.
We found that the patients who underwent gastrectomy on the later weekday (Wednesday–Friday) more easily suffered from a higher postoperative morbidity.
Weekday of surgery was one of the independent indicators for the prognosis of patients after gastric cancer surgery.
However, the role of weekday of surgery was significantly weakened in the complications group.
In conclusion, surgery performed in the later weekday was more likely to lead to increased postoperative complications and an unfavorable role in prognosis of Chinese gastric cancer patients after curative gastrectomy.
