Background/aim: In this study, we investigated the effect of body composition on pancreatic fistula (PF) development after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD).
Materials And Methods: All consecutive patients with pancreatic and extrahepatic biliary malignancy following PD who were treated between 2006 and 2016 were enrolled.
Results: PF developed in 30.3% of cases (30/99 patients), including a grade B PF in 25.3% of cases (25/99 patients) and a grade C PF in 5.1% of cases (5/99 patients). Univariate analysis identified that body mass index ≥25 kg/m, visceral adipose tissue area (VATA)/skeletal muscle index (SMI) ≥2.0, pancreatic duct diameter ≤3 mm, and drain amylase concentration (Amy) on postoperative day (POD) 1 ≥5000 U/L were significantly associated with PF (grade B, C) after PD. Multivariate analysis indicated that VATA/SMI ≥2.0 (p=0.009), pancreatic duct diameter ≤3 mm (p=0.003), and drain Amy on POD1 ≥5000 U/L (p=0.032) were independent risk factors for PF.
Conclusion: Elevated VATA/SMI was the only preoperative key factor for PF after PD.

Skeletal and Adipose Manifestations of Stress in a Contemporary Pediatric Sample.

Introduction: Adverse experiences leading to physiological disruptions (stress) in early life produce cascade effects on various biological systems, including the endocrine and metabolic systems, which, in turn, shape the developing skeletal system. To evaluate the effects of stress on adipose and skeletal tissues, we examine the relationship between skeletal indicators of stress (porotic hyperostosis [PH] and cribra orbitalia [CO]), bone mineral density (BMD), vertebral neural canal (VNC) diameters, and adipose tissue distribution in a contemporary pediatric autopsy sample.
Methods: Data is from 702 (409 males, 293 females) individuals from a pediatric (0.
Association between different obesity metrics and risk of inguinal hernia.

Department of General Surgery, Huadong Hospital, Fudan University, No. 221, West Yan'an Road, Jing'an District, Shanghai, 200040, People's Republic of China.
Purpose: Obesity is closely associated with a lower risk of inguinal hernia, but the association between different obesity metrics and the risk of inguinal hernia is still unclear.
Methods: In our study, we categorized obesity measurement indicators into three groups based on the difficulty of measurement: (1) indicators easily available, such as body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), hip circumference (HC), and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR); (2) indicators accessible with moderate difficulty, such as body fat percentage and body fat mass; (3) indicators difficultly accessible, such as the volume of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT). Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was used to investigate the causal relationship between various adiposity measures and the risk of inguinal hernia in both European ancestry and East Asians.

Objectives: Body composition assessment includes the parameter skeletal muscle mass, subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue (SAT and VAT). The purpose of this study was to elucidate associations of body composition parameters with mortality in patients with acute bleeding undergoing transarterial embolization (TAE).
Methods: A mixed cohort of patients from 2018 to 2022 with acute bleeding requiring treatment with a TAE was retrospectively evaluated.
