Background: Acute appendicitis with an appendicolith is one of the most common abdominal emergencies in elderly patients and is more likely to progress to gangrene and perforation.
Aim: To analyze the clinical data of elderly patients undergoing emergency appendectomy for acute appendicitis, aiming to improve treatment strategies.
Methods: The clinical data of 122 patients over 80 years old who underwent emergency appendectomy for acute appendicitis at the Department of Emergency Surgery of Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University from January 2016 to March 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.
Background: Although antibiotic therapy has become the primary treatment for acute uncomplicated appendicitis, the management of acute complicated appendicitis necessitates careful consideration of various treatment options.
Aim: To analyze the clinical data of patients who underwent emergency appendectomy for acute complicated appendicitis with peri-appendiceal abscess or phlegmon, identify factors influencing the postoperative length of hospital stay (LOS), and improve treatment strategies.
Methods: The clinical data of acute complicated appendicitis patients with peri-appendiceal abscess or phlegmon who underwent emergency appendectomy at The Department of Emergency Surgery, Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University from January 2016 to March 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.
Article Synopsis
- The increasing elderly population with gastric cancer in China faces significant health risks, particularly due to malnutrition, which negatively impacts clinical outcomes.
- A study involving 783 patients found that 31.8% were malnourished, with malnourished individuals experiencing more complications and a lower rate of postoperative nutrient support compared to well-nourished patients.
- Key risk factors for delayed discharge included age over 70, a low prognostic nutritional index, longer surgery times, and severe postoperative complications, indicating a need for improved nutritional strategies for better patient outcomes.

Objective: To explore the association of Snail expression and Lauren classification of gastric cancer.
Methods: The protein levels of Snail and E-cadherin were detected by Western blot in N87 (intestinal-type gastric cancer cell line) and AGS(diffuse-type gastric cancer cell line) cell lines and those after transfection of GSK-3β plasmid. The study included a total of 77 patients with primary gastric cancer who underwent curative gastrectomy in the Zhongshan Hospital from February 2000 to December 2005 without any chemotherapy or radiation therapy before surgery.
