The expression of macrophage inhibitory cytokine-1 (MIC-1) of early gastric cancer treated using endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and its correlation with prognosis were investigated. One hundred and forty-seven patients with early gastric cancer (less than 20 mm in diameter) were recruited and assigned into an observation group (75 cases) or a control group (72 cases), according to treatment. The control group was treated with a radical resection by the conventional laparotomy approach and the observation group was treated by EMR. Differences in operative outcomes and prognosis were compared between the two groups. Complete lesion resection rates of the two groups were 100%. The amount of bleeding, operation time and postoperative complication rates in the observation group were each significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The serum MIC-1 levels in the two groups were reduced, with the observation group being significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). The progression-free survival was significantly prolonged and the recurrence rate was significantly lower in the observation group compared to the control group, with the difference being statistically significant (P<0.05). In conclusion, EMR treatment of early gastric cancer was observed to be safe and effective in this study and can reduce the expression level of serum MIC-1 after the operation. EMR can also increase the survival period and reduce the recurrence rate, and MIC-1 can be used as an important index to predict the prognosis of the disease.

Background: Earlier evidence indicated that metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) may adversely affect neonatal outcomes among patients conceiving soon after MBS, but recent studies demonstrated conflicting results, especially for new surgical techniques.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the effects of MBS types and surgery to birth interval on maternal, birth, and nonbirth outcomes in women with severe obesity.
Setting: New York State's all-payer hospital discharge database (2008-2019).

Introduction: Endoscopic resection is suitable for most benign gastric or early stage cancerous polyps. Laparoscopic local resection is performed only for gastric polyps that are difficult to treat with endoscopic resection, such as recurrent or large polyps. However, when polyps are located in difficult regions, such as the gastric cardia and prepyloric antrum, wedge resection may damage the sphincter around the cardia or pylorus, resulting in postoperative deformity or stenosis.

The last two decades have provided far more options f both patients and their physicians in the treatment of diabetes mellitus. While dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4is) and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) have been approved for nearly two decades, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2is) are relatively new. Of interest to perioperative physicians, these drugs present specific perioperative concerns, prompting many societies to issue guidelines.

: Despite standard preoperative fasting guidelines, residual gastric content can persist in some patients, increasing the risk of aspiration pneumonitis. Multiple patient-specific factors may predict gastric content retention, but their predictive accuracy is limited. We hypothesized that ultrasound would more reliably identify residual gastric content compared to a comprehensive questionnaire and aimed to determine the most practical approach for risk assessment in elective surgical patients.

Patients on chronic anticoagulation undergoing metabolic surgery represent an increased risk of complications, including both bleeding and thrombotic events, such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). The optimal perioperative management of patients who are receiving chronic anticoagulation therapy (CAT) is complex. In the colorectal surgery literature, patients on CAT have a 10% rate of peri-procedural bleeding and a 3% rate of thromboembolism.
