Validation of the Adapted Clavien-Dindo in Trauma (ACDiT) Classifications in Medical and Surgical Management of Acute Diverticulitis

Shuyan Wei, Aiat Radwan, Krislynn M. Mueck, Charlie Wan, David Q. Wan, Stefanos G. Millas, Tien C. Ko, John B. Holcomb, Charles E. Wade, David N. Naumann, Lillian S. Kao

Summary: This study validates the adapted Clavien-Dindo in trauma (ACDiT) tool as a novel outcome measure for patients with acute diverticulitis managed both operatively and nonoperatively. The ACDiT tool, graded from 0 to 5b, was successfully applied to acute diverticulitis patients and showed associations with known risk factors for adverse outcomes. ACDiT may be considered a meaningful outcome measure for comparing strategies for acute diverticulitis.

Cost-effectiveness analysis of optimal diagnostic strategy for patients with symptomatic cholelithiasis with intermediate probability for choledocholithiasis

Faisal S. Ali, Tomas DaVee, Elmer Bernstam, Lillian S. Kao, Mike Wandling, Maryam R. Hussain, Shahrooz Rashtak, Srinivas Ramireddy, Sushovan Guha, Nirav Thosani

Summary: This study evaluates the cost-effectiveness of diagnostic modalities for patients with cholelithiasis and intermediate probability for choledocholithiasis (IPC). The findings suggest that laparoscopic cholecystectomy with intraoperative cholangiogram (LC-IOC) is the most cost-effective strategy, limiting preoperative testing and shortening hospital LOS.

Shock-Induced Endothelial Dysfunction is Present in Patients With Occult Hypoperfusion After Trauma

Summary: This study revealed an association between occult hypoperfusion (OH) and endothelial dysfunction, as evidenced by elevated levels of soluble thrombomodulin (sTM) and syndecan-1 (Syn-1). Regardless of vital signs, treatments aimed at stabilizing the endothelium may be beneficial for injured patients with evidence of hypoperfusion.

Flum, Patrick J. Heagerty

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate patient factors associated with undergoing appendectomy within 30 days of initiating antibiotics for appendicitis. The results found that the presence of an appendicolith was associated with a nearly 2-fold increased risk of undergoing appendectomy, while clinical characteristics often used to describe the severity of appendicitis were not associated with the odds of 30-day appendectomy.

Is expectant management warranted in patients with ventral hernias and co-morbidities? A prospective, 5 year follow-up, patient-centered study

Naila H. Dhanani, Brenda Saucedo, Oscar A. Olavarria, Karla Bernardi, Julie L. Holihan, Tien C. Ko, Lillian S. Kao, Mike K. Liang

Summary: This study compared the natural history of operative versus expectant management in patients with ventral hernias and co-morbidities. The results showed that initial repair significantly improves long-term functional status compared to expectant management. Repair by hernia experts should be considered for high-risk patients.

Summary: The study found that severe nutritional risk in geriatric trauma patients is associated with higher mortality and infectious complications. GNRI scoring can serve as an indicator for predicting adverse outcomes in geriatric trauma patients.

Summary: This study compared participants in the randomized and self-selection cohorts of the CODA trial, and found similar clinical characteristics and outcomes, suggesting that the results of the randomized trial are generalizable to the wider community.

Summary: The study aimed to assess the use and safety of outpatient management of acute appendicitis. The results showed that outpatient antibiotic treatment is safe for selected adults with acute appendicitis and is associated with no greater risk of complications or appendectomy than hospital care.

Factors associated with recurrent appendicitis after successful treatment with antibiotics

David R. Flum

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the factors associated with recurrence of appendectomy after antibiotic treatment. The results showed that symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, or anorexia were important factors for undergoing appendectomy between 30 days and 1 year after treatment, while appendicolith, abscess, perforation, or fat stranding were not strongly associated.
