Arq Bras Cir Dig
January 2025
Antenor Orrego Private University, School of Medicine, Trujillo, La Libertad, Peru.
Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is considered safe; however, it is not free from complications, such as bile duct injuries, bleeding, and infection of the surgical site.
Aims: The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of two prediction tools, the American College of Surgeons-National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS-NSQIP) calculator and the surgical Apgar, in predicting post-cholecystectomy complications.
Methods: A cross-sectional, analytical, and comparative study was conducted on patients over 18 years old diagnosed with acute cholecystitis who underwent open or laparoscopic cholecystectomy at the Regional Teaching Hospital of Trujillo between 2015 and 2019.
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography in Pediatric Population: A Decade-Long Experience from 2 Tertiary Centers.
Turk J Gastroenterol
January 2025
Department of Gastroenterology, Harran University Faculty of Medicine, Şanlıurfa, Türkiye.
Background/aims: Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an essential diagnostic and therapeutic method for pancreato-biliary disorders in adults, but its use in pediatric populations remains limited. This study aims to evaluate the indications, technical success, and safety of ERCP in pediatric patients.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis of all ERCP procedures performed on patients under 18 years of age was conducted at 2 tertiary centers in Türkiye (Harran University and Gaziantep University Hospital) during the period between January 2013 and May 2024.

Emerging research has highlighted the significant role of the gut microbiota in atherosclerosis (AS), with microbiota-targeted interventions offering promising therapeutic potential. A central component of this process is gut-derived metabolites, which play a crucial role in mediating the distal functioning of the microbiota. In this study, a comprehensive microbiome-metabolite analysis using fecal and serum samples from patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and volunteers with risk factors for coronary heart disease and culture histology is performed, and identified the core strain Bacteroides ovatus (B.

Front Immunol
January 2025
Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, The Second Affiliated Hospital, Kunming Medical University, Kunming, China.
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate whether tumor-associated lymphatic vessel density (LVD) could predict the survival of patients with hepato-biliary-pancreatic (HBP) cancers after radical resection.
Methods: A systematic search was conducted using PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library from the inception to July 31, 2024 for literature that reported the role of LVD in overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) of patients with HBP cancers after radical resection.
Results: Ten studies with 761 patients were included for the meta-analysis.
Age-stratified trends and outcomes of inpatient cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis in the United States.
Surg Open Sci
January 2025
Department of Surgery, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, Los Angeles, CA, USA.
Background: The elderly population in the United States is rapidly expanding. Older patients over age 65 with acute cholecystitis may face greater perioperative risk compared to younger patients undergoing urgent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. We aimed to characterize trends in utilization and outcomes of inpatient cholecystectomy across the United States stratified by age.
