AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Epidemiologic studies are essential for the generation of evidence-based, preventive health care strategies. This includes ways to minimize colic risk and assist informed decision making concerning diagnosis, treatment, and likely outcomes. It is important to consider that colic is not a simple "disease" but is a syndrome of abdominal pain that encompasses multiple different disease processes, and which is multifactorial in nature. This review focuses on prevention and diagnosis of colic, including specific forms of colic, communications with owners/carers concerning colic risk and management, and areas of future research.

Functional gastrointestinal disorders predictors in neonates and toddlers: A machine learning approach to risk assessment.
Heliyon
January 2025
Department of Medical and Surgical Sciences, University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy.
Background: Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders (FGIDs) can pose a great burden on affected children, their families, and the healthcare system. Due to the lack of knowledge about the precise pathophysiology of FGIDs, a proper identification of children at risk to develop FGIDs has never been attempted. The research aims to identify early-life risk factors for FGIDs such as infantile colic, regurgitation, and functional constipation, within the first year of life.

Ann Gastroenterol Surg

Division of Frontier Surgery, The Institute of Medical Science The University of Tokyo Bunkyō Japan.
In right-sided colon cancer surgery, lymph node dissection around the superior mesenteric artery is necessary but technically challenging. Here we introduce the concept of "outermost layer-oriented robotic surgery" to improve the safety, efficacy, and reproducibility of superior mesenteric artery nodal dissection. In this procedure, the thin, loose connective tissue layer between the autonomic nerve sheath of the superior mesenteric artery and adipose tissue bearing lymph nodes, termed "the outermost layer of the autonomic nerve," is dissected.

Ann Surg Oncol
December 2024
Abdominal Surgery and Transplantation Department, Cliniques Universitaires Saint-Luc, Brussels, Belgium.
Background: The Resection and Partial Liver Transplantation with Delayed Total Hepatectomy (RAPID) procedure for unresectable colorectal liver metastases (uCRLM) has renewed interest by increasing, in selected cases, patients' long-term survival. Initially described using deceased donor graft, this technique evolved to living donors, tackling organ-shortage issues, allowing better scheduling, and reducing liver failure risk.
Methods: A 50-year-old patient presented 18 months earlier with a colic adenocarcinoma with synchronous uCRLM.
Do Emergency Department Observation Units Help Prevent Revisits for Patients with Renal Colic?
Am J Emerg Med
December 2024
Department of Emergency Medicine, Good Samaritan University Hospital, 1000 Montauk Highway, West Islip, New York, United States of America. Electronic address:
Introduction: Renal colic is generally considered a diagnosis appropriate for discharge home once pain is adequately controlled and no other admission criteria are met. The increasing prevalence of ED observation units (EDOU) represent another disposition option for patients with renal colic. In this study, we sought to describe the rates of 14-day revisits for renal colic among patients placed in an EDOU as compared to those discharged from the ED.
