Abstract

There are many researches on the correlation between C-reactive protein (CRP) and prognosis of gastric cancer, but whether CRP could be used as an evaluation indicator for prognosis of gastric cancer patients, which was still controversial. Therefore, we conducted meta-analysis based on 18 studies involving 3656 objects. The results show that, CRP was significantly correlated with the risk of poor prognosis of gastric cancer patients [HR (95%CI) 1.50 (1.24, 1.81) P=0.000], and the risk of the poor prognosis can be significantly increased when CRP>10mg/L. In the different clinical stage, high expression of CRP can increases the risk of poor prognosis. The CRP can be used as an important indicator of poor prognosis of gastric cancer patients.
