摘要
The 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) is a simple way of assessing exercise capacity. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between preoperative 6MWD and long-term prognosis after esophagectomy.This retrospective cohort study involved 108 patients who underwent radical esophagectomy for esophageal cancer between 2013 and 2020. The patients were classified into the short group (SG: 6MWD < 480 m) or the long group (LG: 6MWD ≥ 480 m). To adjust for the background characteristics of both groups, propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was performed and 32 patients were matched from each group. Five-year overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) were analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method. The log-rank test was used to evaluate differences in survival between the groups. After adjusting for other prognostic factors, the Cox proportional hazards model was used to investigate the impact of preoperative 6MWD on long-term prognosis.The median follow-up period was 923 days. Thirty-three deaths were recorded during the study period. After PSM, 5-year OS following surgery was 29.2 and 66.1% (p = 0.003) and 5-year RFS was 27.9 and 58.6% (p = 0.021) in the SG and LG, respectively. In Cox proportional hazards analysis, the SG was a significant independent risk factor for OS (hazard ratio 3.33; 95% confidence interval 1.37-8.11, p = 0.008) and RFS (hazard ratio 2.30; 95% confidence interval 1.08-4.88, p = 0.030).The preoperative 6MWD is useful for evaluating exercise capacity and predicting the long-term outcome in patients undergoing esophagectomy.
