We analyzed the relationship between preoperative nutritional indices and postoperative complications/prognoses in patients with pStage Ⅰ and Ⅱ gastric cancer aged ≥75 years who had undergone gastrectomy in our hospital. Between January 2012 and March 2021, a total of 79 cases of pStage Ⅰ and Ⅱ gastric cancer were examined in individuals aged ≥75 years who had undergone gastrectomy. We investigated the correlation between short- and long-term outcomes and the nutritional index. CONUT, GPS, and GNRI were employed as indicators of nutritional status. CONUT and GPS showed associations with postoperative complications and an extended postoperative hospital stay, whereas GNRI did not exhibit such associations. Among the patients, 7 deaths were attributed to primary diseases, whereas 16 deaths were attributed to other diseases. No correlation was found between survival rate and preoperative nutritional status. Conclusions: There were minimal cancer recurrences among older adults with gastric cancer who had undergone gastrectomy. Although preoperative nutritional status was associated with postoperative complications, it did not show an association with prognosis.

The effectiveness of bariatric surgery in reducing remnant cholesterol (RC) levels, particularly when obesity is accompanied by elevated glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), is insufficiently investigated. In this study, we aimed to examine the impacts of two common bariatric procedures, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG), as regards their effects on RC and HbA1c levels. Adult morbidly obese subjects were included and assigned to receive either RYGB or SG.

This study aims to examine whether the preoperative controlling nutritional status (CONUT) score was associated with SSI following elective foot and ankle surgeries. This study retrospectively reviewed adult undergoing elective foot and ankle surgeries in a tertiary university-affiliated hospital between January 2019 and May 2023, and identified who subsequently developed an SSI within 12 months postoperative. CONUT score was calculated from serum albumin, lymphocyte count, and toral cholesterol concentration, and its optimal cut-off value for differentiating SSI risk was determined by the receiver operating characteristic curve.

Previous studies have provided relatively limited evidence in examining the impact of preoperative serum albumin levels on the length of hospital stay (LOS) in patients with hip fractures. This study aimed to elucidate the association between preoperative serum albumin levels and LOS in elderly patients with hip fractures. This retrospective cohort study included 1444 elderly patients undergoing surgical treatment for hip fractures at the Second People's Hospital of Shenzhen from January 2012 to December 2021.
