Summary: The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to determine the prevalence of surgical site infection (SSI) and related factors in patients after foot and ankle surgery. A total of 10,447 patients from nine studies were included in the analysis. The overall prevalence of SSI was found to be 4.2%, with higher rates among men and patients with diabetes, hypertension, and tobacco use.

Summary: Surgical site infection (SSI) is a common complication after gastric cancer surgery. This study aimed to investigate the risk factors for SSI in patients with gastric cancer. By searching multiple databases and conducting a meta-analysis, we identified several significant risk factors associated with SSI in patients with gastric cancer.

Summary: This study used a meta-analysis to investigate risk factors for surgical site infection (SSI) following spinal surgery. The results showed that fusion approach, osteotomy, transfusion, a history of diabetes and surgery, hypertension, surgical location, osteoporosis, and the number of fusion levels were associated with SSI.

Summary: The goal of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to provide an overview of the prevalence of surgical wound infection and related factors in patients after long bone surgery. A total of 71,854 patients undergoing long bone surgery participated in 12 studies. The pooled prevalence of surgical wound infection in patients who underwent long bone surgery reported in the 12 studies was 3.3%, with variations in different factors such as gender, surgery site, fracture type, and comorbidities.

Summary: This meta-analysis evaluated the risk factors for surgical site infection in patients with colorectal cancer. The results showed that contaminated wounds, male sex, higher American Society of Anesthesiology scores, higher body mass index, stoma creation, open surgery, and diabetes mellitus are all associated with an increased risk of surgical site infections. However, operative time, blood transfusion, and previous laparotomies were not found to be risk factors for surgical site infections in these patients.

Summary: This meta-analysis identified the risk factors associated with SSI in patients with endometrial cancer, including laparotomy, postoperative high blood sugar, and FIGO stage III or IV. The findings suggest targeted interventions should be implemented for high-risk individuals to reduce the risk of SSI after hysterectomy. However, more high-quality studies are needed to verify the conclusion due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies.

Summary: A meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate risk factors for surgical site wound infections (SSWIs) in hepatic and pancreatic tumour resection (HPTR). A total of 2349 interrelated investigations were reviewed, and 9 investigations with 22,774 individuals were included. The results showed that HT patients with biliary reconstruction had significantly higher SSWI risk, while there was no significant difference in SSWI between PT individuals who underwent different types of surgeries. However, caution should be exercised due to the limited number of selected investigations for this meta-analysis.

Summary: The study found that pulsed lavage significantly reduces the rate of SSIs in surgical procedures, with the most pronounced effect seen in abdominal operations. However, the current study quality is low, and further randomized controlled trials are needed to fully assess the potential benefits of pulsed lavage in reducing SSIs.

Summary: This systematic review aims to determine whether inflammatory blood parameters could be used as significant predictive factors for SSI after primary hip or knee arthroplasty. The review will include studies that analyze the relationship between inflammatory blood parameters and SSI in patients who underwent hip or knee arthroplasty, and will assess the quality of these studies using specific tools. The findings will be disseminated in scientific sessions and published in a peer-reviewed journal.

Summary: This study aimed to understand the risk factors for different types of SSI in CRS patients. The analysis found that obesity, ASA score >= 3, and emergent surgery were highly correlated with SSI. Factors such as male sex, diabetes mellitus, and inflammatory bowel disease showed moderate correlation with SSI. Independent risk factors for organ/space SSI included obesity and blood transfusion. High-quality evidence showed no correlation of OS-SSI with certain factors. Continual follow-up and updates of evidence are recommended to improve patient prognosis. More high-level evidence is needed to verify these findings in the future.

Summary: This study evaluated the risk factors for surgical site infections after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). A systematic review and meta-analysis identified male sex, obesity, tobacco use, diabetes mellitus, steroid use history, previous knee surgery history, professional athletes, revision surgery, hamstring autografts, concomitant lateral extra-articular tenodesis, and a long operation time as factors that increase the risk of surgical site infections after ACLR.

Summary: This study used meta-analysis to investigate the potential risk factors for non-superficial surgical site infection (SSI) following spinal surgery. The results showed that diabetes mellitus, obesity, using steroids, drainage time, and operative time were related to non-superficial SSI. Among these factors, operative time was found to be the most important risk factor.

Summary: A meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the relationship between malnutrition and surgical site infection (SSI) after spinal surgery. The results showed that malnutrition significantly increased the incidence of SSI. However, further high-quality studies with larger sample sizes are needed to validate these results.
