Background: Although the English-language literature is full of studies about post-surgical adhesions, no definitive method has yet been identified to prevent them. The goal of this study was to investigate the effect of ClinOleic on reducing post-surgical adhesion formation.
Methods: Surgery was performed on 40 adult female Sprague-Dawley rats that were randomly assigned to receive either intraperitoneal ClinOleic, which was used to mimic chyle (ClinOleic group), soybean oil (soybean oil group), olive oil (olive oil group), or 0.9% NaCl suspension (control group). All rats underwent laparotomy, side-wall and cecal abrasion, and primary closure. On the 30th day following surgery, rats were sacrificed and examined using the Majuzi adhesion classification and histopathological grading scales.
Results: The adhesion and histopathological scores of the ClinOleic group were significantly lower compared to the control group (0.9% NaCl) (p<0.05). A statistically significant decrease in fibrosis was observed in the soybean and olive oil groups when compared to the control group (p<0.05). However, the adhesion grades of the ClinOleic, soybean and olive oil groups were comparable. We did not observe any post-surgical adhesions in the ClinOleic group.
Conclusion: The parenteral nutrition solution ClinOleic may be an effective and readily available agent for the prevention of post-surgical adhesions.

To address the main challenges for thoracoscopic lung cancer surgery, including persistent pulmonary air leaks and cancer recurrence, this study developed an in-situ adhesive that can effectively adhere to the lung and release the anticancer drug in response to pH. The adhesive was formulated using hydrophobically modified cold-water fish skin gelatin (hm-CFG) and cross-linking agent pullulan dialdehyde (PDA), in which succinic dihydrazide-modified doxorubicin (SDH-DOX) can be incorporated. Utilizing PDA could improve both cohesion and interfacial adhesion, while also offering drug-loading sites through the aldehyde groups that were not involved in cross-linking.
