Abstract
Purpose: To assess the impact of the The Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score, an indicator of nutritional status, on the survival and prognosis after radical cystectomy.
Materials and methods: The medical records of patients who underwent consecutive radical cystectomy operations with the diagnosis of muscle-invasive bladder cancer at our clinic were retrospectively examined. The patients were separated into two groups based on the cut-off CONUT score which was derived using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The group with a CONUT score ≥ 3 was categorized as high CONUT, whereas the group with a CONUT score < 3 was categorized as low CONUT. The groups were compaired according to oncological outcomes and survival risk factors.
Results: Cancer-specific survival (CSS) and overall survival (OS) were statistically significantly lower in the High CONUT group compared to the Low CONUT group (p<0.001, p=0.024, respectively). Age (HR: 1.02, 95% CI: 1.006-1.04, p=0.011) and CONUT score (HR: 3.92, 95% CI: 2.66-5.77, p<0.001) were revealed to be independent prognostic variables in the multivariate analysis for OS.
Conclusion: The CONUT score was found to be an independent predictor of survival in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer in this study.

As the official journal of the Urology and Nephrology Research Center (UNRC) and the Iranian Urological Association (IUA), Urology Journal is a comprehensive digest of useful information on modern urology. Emphasis is on practical information that reflects the latest diagnostic and treatment techniques. Our objectives are to provide an exceptional source of current and clinically relevant research in the discipline of urology, to reflect the scientific work and progress of our colleagues, and to present the articles in a logical, timely, and concise format that meets the diverse needs of today’s urologist.
Urology Journal publishes manuscripts on urology and kidney transplantation, all of which undergo extensive peer review by recognized authorities in the field prior to their acceptance for publication. Accordingly, original articles, case reports, and letters to editor are encouraged.
