Project description:Malnutrition is associated with poor surgical outcomes, and therefore optimizing nutritional status preoperatively is very important. The purpose of this paper is to review the literature related to preoperative parenteral nutrition (PN) and to provide current evidence based guidance. A systemic online search of PubMed, Medline, and Cochrane Databases from January 1990 to February 2020 was done. Sixteen studies were included in this narrative review, including four meta-analyses and twelve clinical trials. The majority of studies have demonstrated benefits of preoperative PN on postoperative outcomes, including reduced postoperative complications (8/10 studies) and postoperative length of stay (3/4 studies). Preoperative PN is indicated in malnourished surgical patients who cannot achieve adequate nutrient intake by oral or enteral nutrition. It can be seen that most studies showing benefits of preoperative PN often included patients with upper gastrointestinal cancer and inflammatory bowel disease (10/12 studies), which gastrointestinal problems are commonly seen and enteral nutrition may be not feasible. When preoperative PN is indicated, adequate energy and protein should be provided, and patients should receive at least seven days of PN prior to surgery. The goal of preoperative PN is not weight regain, but rather repletion of energy, protein, micronutrients, and glycogen stores. Complications associated with preoperative PN are rarely seen in previous studies. In order to prevent and mitigate the potential complications such as refeeding syndrome, optimal monitoring and early management of micronutrient deficiencies is required.

Project description:BackgroundPreoperative nutritional support studies for patients undergoing gastrointestinal (GI) surgery mostly focused on enteral nutrition (EN) or long-term (≥7 days) parenteral nutrition (PN). Some studies also found that preoperative short-term PN could improve the postoperative short-term nutritional status of tumor patients. But whether short-term PN support (1-6 days) before surgery can improve the prognosis of patients undergoing surgery for gastric cancer (GC) remains unclear. Therefore, we focused on assessing the effect of preoperative short-term PN on the outcomes of patients undergoing radical surgery for GC.MethodsA retrospective analysis of 1,155 patients who underwent radical gastrectomy for GC between July 2014 and February 2019 was conducted. According to whether patients received short-term (1-6 days) PN support before surgery, patients were divided into non-PN group and PN group. After 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM), two groups of patients with similar baseline clinical characteristics were obtained. The incidence of various complications and overall survival (OS) rate were compared between the two groups, and logistic regression analysis for complications, Cox regression analysis for OS, and subgroup analysis were performed.ResultsEach group had 478 patients after PSM, and the clinical characteristics were balanced. There were no significant differences in overall postoperative complications (pre-PSM: P=0.495; post-PSM: P>0.99), postoperative length of stay (LOS; pre-PSM: P=0.092; post-PSM: P=0.460), or readmission rate within 30 days (pre-PSM: P=0.496; post-PSM: P=0.793) between the two groups before and after PSM. The OS of PN group before matching was lower than that of non-PN group (P=0.023), but this difference was not significant after matching (P=0.950), but the PN group's hospitalization expenses were substantially greater than those of the control group (post-PSM: P<0.001). Preoperative short-term PN support was not an independent factor in the incidence of postoperative complications (P>0.99) and OS (P=0.949). Subgroup analyses failed to identify those patients who might benefit from preoperative short-term PN support.ConclusionsPreoperative short-term PN support may have no significant benefit on short-term postoperative complications or the long-term OS of patients with GC but increase hospitalization costs. It thus should not be the first choice of treatment for these patients.

Project description:Core needle biopsy (Cx) primary cancer specimens were collected at Okayama University Hospital in Japan from hormone receptor positive /HER2 negative patients that subsequently received two weeks of neoadjuvant hormone therapy. Thirty clinical TNM stage I and II women were enrolled in this study. The study was approved by the Institutional Review Board and all patients signed informed consent forms. Patients received preoperative hormone therapy daily for two weeks before surgery. Premenopausal patients received tamoxifen (40 mg) and postmenopausal patients received letrozole (2.5 mg). All patients underwent a mastectomy or breast-conserving surgery. Surgical samples after treatment were also collected. Hormone and HER2 receptor statuses were determined in the diagnostic Cx specimens before hormone therapy. Cases with ≥1% positive nuclear staining for estrogen receptors (ER) or progesterone receptors (PgR) with IHC were considered hormone receptor-positive. Cases with either 0 or 1 positive IHC staining for HER2 or with an HER2 gene copy number < 2.0 by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis were considered HER2−. Specimens for gene expression analysis were collected into RNA and later stored at -80°C. Gene expression profiling was performed using Affymetrix U133A gene chips. Expression data were normalized using the MAS5 algorithm, mean centered to 600, and log2 transformed before further analysis.

Project description:BackgroundPreoperative pulmonary function assessment is useful for selecting surgical candidates and operative methods and assessing the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications. However, few studies have investigated the relationship between preoperative pulmonary function and short- and long-term outcomes in patients who underwent gastrectomy for gastric cancer.MethodsOf the 1040 patients with gastric cancer (stages I-III) who had undergone R0 gastrectomy between 2009 and 2020, 750 who underwent preoperative spirometry were included. Restrictive ventilatory impairment was defined as a vital capacity of the predicted value (%VC) < 80%, while obstructive ventilatory impairment was defined as forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1%) < 70%. Postoperative complications were assessed using the Clavien-Dindo (CD) classification. The relationship between clinical factors, including %VC, FEV1%, severe postoperative complications (CD ≥ 3b), overall survival (OS), and relapse-free survival, were assessed.ResultsThe mean age of the 750 patients was 68 ± 10.5 years. Severe postoperative complications were observed in 25 (3.3%) patients and were significantly associated with FEV1% < 70% in the univariate analysis. The 5-year OS was 72.5%. Multivariate analysis showed that the cancer stage, age > 75 years, preoperative comorbidities, %VC < 80%, total gastrectomy, severe postoperative complications, and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy were the significant independent factors affecting OS. Pneumonia was significantly associated with %VC < 80%.ConclusionsFEV1% < 70%was associated with the development of severe postoperative complications, while %VC < 80% was associated with poor OS independent of the cancer stage because of death from pneumonia. Spirometry helps surgeons and patients discuss the risks and benefits of surgery.

Project description:BackgroundChildren with orofacial clefts are highly susceptible to malnutrition, with severe malnutrition restricting their eligibility to receive safe surgery. Ready-to-use therapeutic foods (RUTF) are an effective treatment for malnutrition; however, the effectiveness has not been demonstrated in this patient population prior to surgery. We studied the effectiveness of short-term RUTF use in transitioning children with malnutrition, who were initially ineligible for surgery, into surgical candidates.MethodsA cohort of patients from Ghana, Honduras, Malawi, Madagascar, Nicaragua, and Venezuela enrolled in a nutrition program were followed by Operation Smile from June 2017 to January 2020. Age, weight, and length/height were tracked at each visit. Patients were included until they were sufficiently nourished (Z > = -1) with a secondary outcome of receiving surgery. The study was part of a collaborative program between Operation Smile (NGO), Birdsong Peanuts (peanut shellers and distributors), and MANA Nutrition (RUTF producer).ResultsA total of 556 patients were recruited between June 2017 and January 2020. At baseline 28.2% (n = 157) of patients were diagnosed with severe, 21.0% (n = 117) moderate, and 50.7% (n = 282) mild malnutrition. 324 (58.3%) presented for at least one return visit. Of those, 207 (63.7%) reached optimal nutrition status. By visit two, the mean z-score increased from -2.5 (moderate) to -1.7 (mild) (p < 0·001). The mean time to attain optimal nutrition was 6 weeks. There was a significant difference in the proportion of patients who improved by country(p < 0.001).ConclusionMalnutrition prevents many children with orofacial clefts in low- and middle-income countries from receiving surgical care even when provided for free. This creates an even larger disparity in access to surgery. In an average of 6 weeks with an approximate cost of $25 USD per patient, RUTF transitioned over 60% of patients into nutritionally eligible surgical candidates, making it an effective, short-term preoperative nutritional intervention. Through unique partnerships, the expansion of cost-effective, large-scale nutrition programs can play a pivotal role in ensuring those at the highest risk of living with unrepaired orofacial clefts receive timely and safe surgical care.

Project description:PurposeRobotic surgery is expected to have advantages over laparoscopic surgery; however, there are limited data regarding the feasibility of robotic surgery for rectal cancer after preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT). Therefore, we evaluated the short-term outcomes of robotic surgery for rectal cancer.Materials and methodsThirty-three patients with cT3N0-2 rectal cancer after preoperative CRT who underwent robotic low anterior resection (R-LAR) between March 2010 and January 2012 were matched with 66 patients undergoing laparoscopic low anterior resection (L-LAR). Perioperative clinical outcomes and pathological data were compared between the two groups.ResultsPatient characteristics did not differ significantly different between groups. The mean operation time was 441 minutes (R-LAR) versus 277 minutes (L-LAR, p < 0.001). The open conversion rate was 6.1% in the R-LAR group and 0% in the L-LAR group (p=0.11). There were no significant differences in the time to flatus passage, length of hospital stay, and postoperative morbidity. In pathological review, the mean number of harvested lymph nodes was 22.3 in R-LAR and 21.6 in L-LAR (p=0.82). Involvement of circumferential resection margin was positive in 16.1% and 6.7%, respectively (p=0.42). Total mesorectal excision (TME) quality was complete in 97.0% in R-LAR and 91.0% in L-LAR (p=0.41).ConclusionIn our study, short-term outcomes of robotic surgery for rectal cancer after CRT were similar to those of laparoscopic surgery in respect to bowel function recovery, morbidity, and TME quality. Well-designed clinical trials are needed to evaluate the functional results and long-term outcomes of robotic surgery for rectal cancer.

Project description:Nutrition support is essential for surgical patients. Patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) require tremendous nutrient support but also faced with risks of infection and gastrointestinal complications. Early parenteral nutrition has recently shown benefits while limited information provided about the influence on metabolism. This prospective single-center cohort study used plasma metabolomics to clarify metabolic alteration after early parenteral nutrition followed with enteral nutrition. Patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy (n = 52) were enrolled. 36 patients received parenteral nutrition within 3 days postoperatively followed with EN (TPN group), 16 patients received standard fluids followed with EN (GIK group). We found that the weight loss is reduced in TPN group while the other clinical outcomes and inflammatory cytokines showed no statistical significance. The TPN group showed significance in amino acids, lipid, and phospholipids metabolism compared with the GIK group. Moreover, integration analysis indicated that early TPN could promote the metabolism of long-chain fatty acids, phospholipids, ketone bodies, and branched-chain amino acids. We conclude that early TPN support followed with EN for patients undergoing PD reduced the perioperative weight loss and promoted the metabolic transition to anabolic metabolism with the recovery of lipid metabolism, suggesting its benefits for the recovery of patients.

Project description:BackgroundRobotic esophagogastric cancer surgery is gaining widespread adoption. This population-based cohort study aimed to compare rates of textbook outcomes (TOs) and survival from robotic minimally invasive techniques for esophagogastric cancer.MethodsData from the United States National Cancer Database (NCDB) (2010-2017) were used to identify patients with non-metastatic esophageal or gastric cancer receiving open surgery (to the esophagus, n = 11,442; stomach, n = 22,183), laparoscopic surgery (to the esophagus [LAMIE], n = 4827; stomach [LAMIG], n = 6359), or robotic surgery (to the esophagus [RAMIE], n = 1657; stomach [RAMIG], n = 1718). The study defined TOs as 15 or more lymph nodes examined, margin-negative resections, hospital stay less than 21 days, no 30-day readmissions, and no 90-day mortalities. Multivariable logistic regression and Cox analyses were used to account for treatment selection bias.ResultsPatients receiving robotic surgery were more commonly treated in high-volume academic centers with advanced clinical T and N stage disease. From 2010 to 2017, TO rates increased for esophageal and gastric cancer treated via all surgical techniques. Compared with open surgery, significantly higher TO rates were associated with RAMIE (odds ratio [OR], 1.41; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.27-1.58) and RAMIG (OR 1.30; 95% CI 1.17-1.45). For esophagectomy, long-term survival was associated with both TO (hazard ratio [HR 0.64, 95% CI 0.60-0.67) and RAMIE (HR 0.92; 95% CI 0.84-1.00). For gastrectomy, long-term survival was associated with TO (HR 0.58; 95% CI 0.56-0.60) and both LAMIG (HR 0.89; 95% CI 0.85-0.94) and RAMIG (HR 0.88; 95% CI 0.81-0.96). Subset analysis in high-volume centers confirmed similar findings.ConclusionDespite potentially adverse learning curve effects and more advanced tumor stages captured during the study period, both RAMIE and RAMIG performed in mostly high-volume centers were associated with improved TO and long-term survival. Therefore, consideration for wider adoption but a well-designed phase 3 randomized controlled trial (RCT) is required for a full evaluation of the benefits conferred by robotic techniques for esophageal and gastric cancers.

Project description:Total parenteral nutrition has been used in clinical practice for over a quarter of a century. It has revolutionized the management of potentially fatal condition like the short bowel syndrome in infants as well as adults. Refinements in techniques have led to development of sophisticated catheters and delivery systems. Better understanding of human nutrition and metabolic processes has lead to formulation of scientific parenteral solutions to suit specific situations. This article addresses the role of total parenteral nutrition in modern surgical practice.

Project description:BackgroundA variety of factors for short- and long-term outcomes have been reported after radical resection for gastric cancer (GC). Obesity and emaciation had been reported to be a cause of poor short- and long-term outcomes with gastrointestinal cancer. However, the indicators are still controversial. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between perirenal thickness (PT) and short- and long-term outcomes after radical surgery for GC.MethodsWe analyzed the data of 364 patients with GC who underwent radical surgery. We evaluated the distance from the anterior margin of the quadratus lumborum muscle to the dorsal margin of the left renal pole using computed tomography (CT) as an indicator of PT. The association between PT and clinicopathological factors and short- and long-term outcomes was evaluated.ResultsThe PT data were divided into low, normal, and high groups by gender using the tertile value. We found that the PT low group was 121 patients, normal group was 121 patients, and high group was 122 patients. Multivariate analyses showed that the high PT group was an independent risk factor for a short-outcome after curative surgery in GC patients (odds ratio 2.163; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.156-4.046; P = .016). And the low PT group was an independent risk factor for overall survival (hazard ratio 2.488; 95% CI 1.400-4.421; P = .0019) and relapse-free survival (hazard ratio 2.342; 95% CI 1.349-4.064; P = .0025) after curative surgery in GC patients.ConclusionPerirenal thickness is a simple and useful factor for predicting short- and long-term outcomes after radical surgery for GC.
