    "abstract": "Inflammation plays an important role in the progression of cancer and other diseases, such as diabetes and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) was recognized as an objective biomarker reflecting immunoinflammatory status. This study aimed to identify the association between SII with all-cause, cancer and non-cancer mortality among general population in the United States.\n25,955 participants (\u2265\u200920 years) were included from 2005 to 2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) and were divided into four groups according to the SII quartiles. Weighted multivariate Cox regression was used to assess the correlation between SII and mortality. Subgroup analyses were conducted to identify the effects of other covariates on the relationship between SII and mortality. A restricted cubic spline (RCS) model was subsequently used to explore the dose-response relationship between SII and mortality. Survival analysis was assessed using Kaplan-Meier method.\nIn fully adjusted model, the adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of individuals in Q4 were 1.24 (1.09, 1.41) for all-cause mortality and 1.41 (1.23, 1.63) for non-cancer mortality compared with Q1. Besides, the aHR and 95% CIs in Q2 of SII were 0.70 (0.50, 0.99) and in Q3 were 0.68 (0.52, 0.87) compared with Q1 for cancer mortality. In RCS analysis, non-linear relationships of J-shaped curves were observed in the association between SII with all-cause and non-cancer mortality. Additionally, a U-shaped curve was identified between SII and cancer mortality with a threshold value of 445.22.\nOur findings imply that SII can serve as a potential prognosis indicator among general population. Elevated SII is associated with higher all-cause and non-cancer mortality. Furthermore, both the lowest and highest quartiles of the SII exhibit a correlation with heightened cancer mortality.",
