Core Tip	This study validated the correlation of the Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index and Prognostic Nutritional Index with clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis in patients with gastric cancer (GC). Analysis of the collected clinical data from patients with GC revealed that Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index and Prognostic Nutritional Index are effective biological markers for predicting GC prognosis, as they reflect patients’ clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis. The combination of the two further enhances prognostic and diagnostic efficacy, and both are also independent predictors for three-year overall survival in such patients.
