Advancing perioperative optimization in Crohn's disease surgery with machine learning predictions.
World J Gastrointest Surg
October 2024
Department of Advanced Biomedical Sciences, University of Naples Federico II, Naples 80131, Italy.
This editorial offers commentary on the article which aimed to forecast the likelihood of short-term major postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo grade ≥ III), including anastomotic fistula, intra-abdominal sepsis, bleeding, and intestinal obstruction within 30 days, as well as prolonged hospital stays following ileocecal resection in patients with Crohn's disease (CD). This prediction relied on a machine learning (ML) model trained on a cohort that integrated a nomogram predictive model derived from logistic regression analysis and a random forest (RF) model. Both the nomogram and RF showed good performance, with the RF model demonstrating superior predictive ability.

Evid Based Dent
September 2023
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Periodontology, University of Sao Paulo, School of Dentistry of Ribeirao Preto, Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Design: The research was a randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial evaluating the use of clindamycin as a preoperative medication to prevent the dental implant.
Aim: The purpose of the study was to assess if giving a single dose of 600 mg oral clindamycin 1 h before a conventional dental implant procedure could reduce the risk of early implant failure and post-surgical complications in healthy adults.
Methods: A clinical trial was conducted with ethical standards, utilizing a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled approach.
Benefits versus harm of intraoperative glucocorticoid for postoperative nausea and vomiting prophylaxis.
Br J Anaesth
July 2023
Section of Surgical Pathophysiology, Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen, Denmark.
Intraoperative use of glucocorticoids is effective for postoperative nausea and vomiting prophylaxis and can also provide early postoperative analgesic effects, but the consequences for chronic post-surgical pain are debatable. In a secondary analysis of the large pragmatic Perioperative Administration of Dexamethasone and Infection trial (n=8478), the primary outcome of pain at the surgical wound at 6 months after surgery was increased in subjects receiving dexamethasone 8 mg i.v.
