Objective: Patients with Crohn's disease (CD) commonly experience malnutrition. The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria, a novel approach to assessing malnutrition, has been validated in some diseases. However, there are limited studies in CD patients.

Background: Patients diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) usually have a poor prognosis, so it is critical to identify effective biomarkers for prognosis prediction. The aim of this study is to establish a nomogram to evaluate the prognostic significance of blood markers in patients with NSCLC and provide reference for clinical work.
Methods: A total of 486 patients with NSCLC who were admitted to hospital from January 2009 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.
Several studies explored the associations of pre-albumin (PA)/albumin (ALB) and ALB-combined indicators (prognostic nutrition index [PNI], albumin-to-globulin ratio [AGR], bilirubin-to-albumin [BAR], and C-reactive protein/albumin ratio [CAR]) with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) resistance and coronary artery lesions (CALs) in Kawasaki disease (KD) patients. However, the results were controversial. A meta-analysis was conducted to reconfirm their associations and predictive performance.

Background: Postoperative complications are potential factors influencing the prognosis of patients with HCC combined with CSPH. This study aims to explore the risk factors affecting the occurrence of postoperative complications, investigate potential factors influencing long-term prognosis in these patients, and establish predictive models.
Methods: From April 2018 to December 2021, a total of 190 patients with HCC combined with CSPH who underwent curative liver resection in our hospital were included, comprising 69 cases in the complication group and 121 cases in the non-complication group.

Background: Preoperative malnutrition is a known risk factor for postoperative complications following total joint arthroplasty (TJA); however, there is scant literature comparing which nutritional index is best at predicting these outcomes. The purpose of this study was to investigate the utility of the Maastricht index, Onodera's Prognostic Nutritional Index, the Geriatric Nutritional Risk index, and a novel, modified Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (mGNRI) in predicting periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), wound complications (WCs), readmission, and reoperation rates after TJA.
Methods: A single-center, retrospective cohort study was performed of patients who underwent primary TJA from January 2016 to December 2021.
