The indexes of plasma coagulation and fibrinolysis system factors were collected. Kaplan–Meier survival curves were used to calculate the overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). The prognostic value of plasma fibrinogen was analyzed by using Cox regression model, and a nomogram of BCa based on plasma fibrinogen was generated by R software.Results: Among 145 patients, the optimal cut-off value of plasma fibrinogen was 3.14g/L. High level of plasma fibrinogen was related to the poor prognosis of patients with BCa, and plasma fibrinogen has a more accurate prognostic ability than other plasma coagulation and fibrinolysis system factors. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that plasma fibrinogen was an independent predictor of OS (> 3.14 vs ≤ 3.14 HR, 2.58, 95% CI = 1.28– 5.23; p = 0.008) and DFS (> 3.14 vs ≤ 3.14 HR, 2.60, 95% CI = 1.20– 5.65; p = 0.016), and the nomogram based on plasma fibrinogen had better accuracy and discrimination (area under the curve (AUC): OS = 0.741, DFS = 0.733).Conclusion: Plasma fibrinogen can be used as an independent predictor of OS and DFS for RC patients, and the nomogram based on plasma fibrinogen was a reliable model for predicting the prognosis after RC.Keywords: bladder cancer, plasma fibrinogen, radical cystectomy, prognosis, nomogram |
