[PMID: 40172137 DOI: 10.1080/01635581.2025.2486153] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2025] [Revised: 03/22/2025] [Accepted: 03/25/2025] [Indexed: 04/04/2025]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The impact of obesity on the surgical outcomes in patients after laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) is unclear. We aimed at conducting a meta-analysis to evaluate the associations between overweight and obesity and major surgical outcomes after LLR for liver tumors. METHODS We searched PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, and Web of Science databases for eligible studies. Odds ratios (ORs) and mean differences (MDs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. RESULTS Eight studies were included, with a total of 7,580 patients. Findings indicated that, relative to individuals of normal weight, those in the higher body mass index (BMI) category (overweight and obese) had prolonged operation time (MD, 15.46 mins), increased blood loss (MD, 39.40 mL), overall complications (OR 1.20), conversion (OR 1.41), and surgical site infection (SSI) (OR 1.77). In addition, subgroup analysis showed that although overweight did not increase the risk of overall postoperative complications and SSI, obesity significantly increased the risk of overall postoperative complications, SSI, and conversion to laparotomy. CONCLUSION In conclusion, higher BMI, especially obesity, is closely associated with higher risk of morbidity after laparoscopic liver resection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sarcopenic obesity (SO) affects outcomes in various malignancies. However, its clinical significance in patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC) remains unclear. This study investigated the impact of pre- and post-NAC SO on postoperative morbidity and survival. METHODS Data from 207 patients with LAGC, who underwent NAC followed by radical gastrectomy between January 2010 and October 2019, were reviewed. Skeletal muscle mass and visceral fat area were measured pre- and post-NAC using computed tomography to define sarcopenia and obesity, the coexistence of which was defined as SO. RESULTS Among the patients, 52 (25.1%) and 38 (18.4%) developed SO before and after NAC, respectively. Both pre- (34.6%) and post- (47.4%) NAC SO were associated with the highest postoperative morbidity rates; however, only post-NAC SO was an independent risk factor for postoperative morbidity [hazard ratio (HR) = 9.550, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 2.818-32.369; P < .001]. Pre-NAC SO was independently associated with poorer 3-year overall [46.2% vs. 61.3%; HR = 1.258 (95% CI = 1.023-1.547); P = .049] and recurrence-free [39.3% vs. 55.4%; HR 1.285 (95% CI 1.045-1.579); P = .017] survival. CONCLUSIONS Pre-NAC SO was an independent prognostic factor in patients with LAGC undergoing NAC; post-NAC SO independently predicted postoperative morbidity.

Abstract
To examine the influence of Body Mass Index (BMI) on laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) short-term and long-term outcomes for gastric cancer. A retrospective analysis was conducted on gastric cancer patients undergoing LG at the Third Hospital of Nanchang City from January 2013 to January 2022. Based on WHO BMI standards, patients were categorized into normal weight, overweight, and obese groups. Factors such as operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative complications, and overall survival were assessed. Across different BMI groups, it was found that an increase in BMI was associated with longer operative times (average times: 206.22 min for normal weight, 231.32 min for overweight, and 246.78 min for obese), with no significant differences noted in intraoperative blood loss, postoperative complications, or long-term survival among the groups. The impact of BMI on long-term survival following LG for gastric cancer was found to be insignificant, with no notable differences in survival outcome between different BMI groups. Although higher BMI is associated with increased operative time in LG for gastric cancer, it does not significantly affect intraoperative blood loss, postoperative complications, recovery, or long-term survival. LG is a feasible treatment choice for obese patients with gastric cancer.

Abstract
Introduction The number of overweight patients with gastric cancer (GC) is increasing, and no previous study has compared laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) and robotic gastrectomy (RG) in obese patients with GC. To investigate the perioperative and oncologic outcomes of RG and LG in obese GC patients, we performed a meta-analysis of propensity matched scores and retrospective studies to compare the perioperative parameters, oncologic findings, and short-term postoperative outcomes between the two groups. Methods This study was performed according to the PRISMA guidelines. A search was performed on PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central Register to identify eligible propensity matched scores and retrospective studies conducted and published before December 2022. Data on perioperative and oncological outcomes were included in the meta-analysis. Results Overall, we identified 1 propensity score match study and 5 randomized control trials of RG and LG, enrolling a total of 718 patients (197 and 521 patients received RG and LG, respectively). No significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of complications, bleeding, or lymph node dissection. Of note, RG had a longer procedure time (P = 0.03), earlier oral intake (P = 0.0010), shorter hospital stay (P = 0.0002), and shorter time to defecation (P < 0.00001). Conclusions This meta-analysis concluded that patients in the RG group had shorter hospital stays, earlier postoperative feeding, and earlier postoperative ventilation; however, no differences were found in blood loss, number of lymph nodes removed, or overall complications. RG is an effective, safe, and promising treatment for obese patients with GC, compensating for the shortcomings of laparoscopy and allowing for less trauma and faster recovery.

Preoperative High Visceral Fat Increases Severe Complications but Improves Long-Term Prognosis after Gastrectomy for Patients with Advanced Gastric Cancer: A Propensity Score Matching Analysis. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14204236. [PMID: 36296920 PMCID: PMC9607456 DOI: 10.3390/nu14204236] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2022] [Revised: 09/27/2022] [Accepted: 10/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
This study investigated the paradox of high visceral fat mass increasing severe complications but improving long-term prognosis after radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer. This was a retrospective cohort study of consecutive patients with primary stage I–III gastric cancer who underwent gastrectomy between April 2008 and June 2018. The visceral adipose tissue index (VAI) was calculated by dividing the visceral fat mass preoperatively measured on computed tomography by the square of the height. Patients with VAIs below the median cut-off value were classified as low-VAI, while those above it were classified as high-VAI. We compared the postoperative complication rate and overall survival (OS) in the low- and high-VAI groups after adjusting patient characteristics using propensity score matching (PSM). There were 155 patients in both groups after PSM. After matching, there was no significant difference in factors other than BMI and VAI that were not adjusted. The high-VAI group had more severe postoperative complications (p = 0.018), but the OS was significantly better in the high-VAI group (hazard ratio 0.611, 95%CI 0.403–0.928, p = 0.021). Preoperative high visceral fat mass not only increased severe complications, but also improved OS after gastrectomy in patients with advanced gastric cancer.

Textbook outcome, chemotherapy compliance, and prognosis after radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer: A large sample analysis. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY 2022; 48:2141-2148. [PMID: 35780034 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2022.05.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2021] [Revised: 05/03/2022] [Accepted: 05/27/2022] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to analyze the effect of textbook outcome (TO) on the long-term prognosis and adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) compliance of patients with gastric cancer (GC) in a single institute. MATERIALS AND METHODS Consecutive patients who underwent radical gastrectomy with pathological stage I-III at Union Hospital of Fujian Medical University from January 2010 to June 2017 were included. TO was defined as receiving a complete-potentially curative status, ≥15 lymph nodes examined, hospital stay ≤21 days, and freedom from intraoperative and postoperative complications, re-intervention in 30 days, 30-day readmission to the hospital or intensive care unit, and 30-day postoperative mortality. RESULTS Totally 3993 patients were included, of which 3361 (84.2%) patients achieved TO. The overall, disease-specific, and recurrence-free survival of patients achieving TO were significantly better than those of patients without achieving TO (all P < 0.05). The total number of AC cycles was greater and the interval from surgery to first AC was shorter in the TO group compared with the Non-TO group. Age >65 years old, open surgery, pT3-4 stage, and total radical gastrectomy (TG) were identified as related high-risk factors for failure to achieve TO. Laparoscopic surgery facilitated TO achievement in high-risk groups. CONCLUSION TO is a reliable indicator of favorable prognosis of patients with GC and contributes to postoperative chemotherapy compliance. Age ≤65 years old, non-TG, pT1-2 stage, and laparoscopic surgery may promote the achievement of TO.

Clinical impact of perirenal thickness on short- and long-term outcomes of gastric cancer after curative surgery. Ann Gastroenterol Surg 2022; 6:496-504. [PMID: 35847439 PMCID: PMC9271023 DOI: 10.1002/ags3.12547] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2021] [Revised: 12/18/2021] [Accepted: 01/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Background A variety of factors for short- and long-term outcomes have been reported after radical resection for gastric cancer (GC). Obesity and emaciation had been reported to be a cause of poor short- and long-term outcomes with gastrointestinal cancer. However, the indicators are still controversial. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between perirenal thickness (PT) and short- and long-term outcomes after radical surgery for GC. Methods We analyzed the data of 364 patients with GC who underwent radical surgery. We evaluated the distance from the anterior margin of the quadratus lumborum muscle to the dorsal margin of the left renal pole using computed tomography (CT) as an indicator of PT. The association between PT and clinicopathological factors and short- and long-term outcomes was evaluated. Results The PT data were divided into low, normal, and high groups by gender using the tertile value. We found that the PT low group was 121 patients, normal group was 121 patients, and high group was 122 patients. Multivariate analyses showed that the high PT group was an independent risk factor for a short-outcome after curative surgery in GC patients (odds ratio 2.163; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.156-4.046; P = .016). And the low PT group was an independent risk factor for overall survival (hazard ratio 2.488; 95% CI 1.400-4.421; P = .0019) and relapse-free survival (hazard ratio 2.342; 95% CI 1.349-4.064; P = .0025) after curative surgery in GC patients. Conclusion Perirenal thickness is a simple and useful factor for predicting short- and long-term outcomes after radical surgery for GC.

Abstract
Background Many studies have shown the operative feasibility and safety of robotic gastrectomy. Surgeons are pursuing single-port (SP) surgery to leverage the advantages of minimally invasive gastrectomy. The purpose of this study was to describe technical considerations and short-term outcomes from the first reported SP robotic total gastrectomy (RTG) using the da Vinci SP platform. Methods A 75-year-old patient with a body-mass index of 19.8 kg/m2 and clinical stage III cancer (cT3N+M0) underwent SP RTG on 22 January 2022 at the Department of General Surgery, the Chinese PLA General Hospital. All procedures were performed successfully using the da Vinci SP robotic platform. Results The SP RTG was successfully performed with D2 lymphadenectomy including No. 10 lymph-nodes dissection and extracorporeal Roux-en-Y anastomosis. Except for subcutaneous emphysema, no severe adverse events occurred during the operation. According to a visual analogue scale (VAS), the subjective feeling of post-operative pain was given a VAS score of 3 of 10 on Post-Operative Day 1 (POD 1), 1 of 10 on POD 3, and 1 of 10 on POD 7. We removed the gastric tube on POD 2 and advised sipping water, a liquid diet, and a soft diet on PODs 2, 4, and 6, respectively. The patient was discharged without any complications on POD 8. Conclusion RTG is technically feasible and safe using the da Vinci SP robotic platform. To our knowledge, this is the first study using the da Vinci SP platform in RTG for advanced gastric cancer in elderly patients. To verify its superior operative outcomes, further clinical trials are needed.

Surg Endosc 2022; 36:6181-6193. [PMID: 35294634 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-022-09178-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2021] [Accepted: 02/25/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric cancer surgery for obese patients is regarded as a technically challenging procedure. The morbidity after gastrectomy has been reported to be significantly higher in patients with high visceral fat area (VFA). Robotic gastrectomy (RG) is expected to be advantageous for complicated operations. However, whether RG is superior to conventional laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) for patients with visceral fat obesity remains unclear. The present study aimed to clarify the impact of RG on the short- and long-term outcomes of patients with high VFAs. METHODS This study included 1306 patients with clinical stage I/II gastric cancer who underwent minimally invasive gastrectomy between January 2012 and December 2020. The patients were subclassified according to VFA. The short- and long-term outcomes of RG were compared with those of LG in two VFA categories. RESULTS This study included 394 (high-VFA, 151; low-VFA, 243) and 882 patients (high-VFA, 366; low-VFA, 516) in the RG and LG groups, respectively. RG was associated with a significantly longer operative time than LG (high-VFA, P < 0.001; low-VFA, P < 0.001). The incidence rates of overall and intra-abdominal infectious complications in the high-VFA patients were lower in the RG group than in the LG group (P = 0.019 and P = 0.048, respectively) but not significantly different from those in the low-VFA patients. In the multivariate analysis, LG was identified as the only independent risk factor of overall (odds ratio [OR] 3.281; P = 0.012) and intra-abdominal infectious complications (OR 3.462; P = 0.021) in the high-VFA patients. The overall survival of high-VFA patients was significantly better in the RG group than in the LG group (P = 0.045). CONCLUSIONS For patients with visceral fat obesity, RG appears to be advantageous to LG in terms of reducing the risk of complications and better long-term survival.

A Simple Predictive Index of the Abdominal Shape for Postoperative Complications After Laparoscopy-Assisted Distal Gastrectomy for Gastric Cancer. Front Surg 2021; 8:768434. [PMID: 34957204 PMCID: PMC8692270 DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2021.768434] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2021] [Accepted: 11/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of abdominal shape on the short-term surgical outcomes. Methods: This was a retrospective study that included 425 patients undergoing laparoscopic distal gastrectomy plus D2 lymph node dissection (LADG) from January 2013 to January 2021. The abdominal parameters, including the shortest distance of the pancreas from the anterior abdominal skin (PAAD), the lower sternum angle (LSA), the thickness of the subcutaneous fat at the navel level (SFT), the anteroposterior diameters (APD) and the left-right diameters (LRD) at the navel level, the distance from the xiphoid process to the navel (XND) and the distance from the xiphoid process to the pubis (XBD), were calculated by preoperative abdominal computed tomography (CT) imaging. The parameters and short-term surgical outcomes were analyzed. Results: In males, the number of retrieved lymph nodes was significantly higher in patients with a lower APD group (p = 0.031). The operation time was significantly shorter in the lower body mass index (BMI) (p = 0.007), lower LSA (p = 0.035), lower PAAD (p = 0.000), lower SFT (p = 0.004), lower APD (p = 0.000) and lower LRD (p = 0.014) groups. The estimated blood loss was significantly less in the lower BMI (p = 0.035), lower LSA (p = 0.001), lower PAAD (p = 0.012), lower SFT (p = 0.003), lower APD (p = 0.000) and lower LRD (p = 0.005) groups. The complications were fewer in the lower LSA (p = 0.012), lower APD (p = 0.043) and lower LRD (p = 0.023) groups. In females, the postoperative hospital stay was shorter in the lower PAAD (p = 0.027) and lower SFT (p = 0.004) groups, and the lower SFT group had fewer complications (p = 0.020). Furthermore, in multivariate analysis, higher PAAD (p = 0.037, odds ratio = 1.030, 95% CI = 1.002-1.059) was an independent factor for predicting postoperative complications in males. Conclusion: Various abdominal shapes can affect the difficulty of LADG. Higher PAAD is a simple independent index for predicting postoperative complications in males.

Feasibility of totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy in obese patients with gastric cancer. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2021; 407:999-1008. [PMID: 34741672 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-021-02369-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2021] [Accepted: 10/26/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to evaluate the short- and long-term outcomes in obese patients with gastric cancer undergoing totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy (TLTG) to clarify its feasibility in this population. METHODS We examined 136 consecutive patients who underwent TLTG for gastric cancer (GC) between 2013 and 2018. A total of 45 patients with a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m2 were defined as the obese group (obese and overweight patients by the WHO classification), and 91 patients with a BMI < 25 kg/m2 were defined as the non-obese group. Short- and long-term outcomes were compared, and the correlation between obesity and postoperative complications was examined in patients who underwent TLTG. RESULTS Although the operation time (min) was significantly longer in the obese group than in the non-obese group (329 vs 307, p = 0.002), there were no significant differences in the total volume of blood loss (mL) (118 vs 60, p = 0.059) or the rate of conversion to laparotomy between the two groups (2 vs 2, p = 0.466). Moreover, there was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups (16% vs 19%, p = 0.653). In the multivariate analysis, obesity was not identified as a risk factor for postoperative complications among patients who underwent TLTG. The rate of overall survival was not significantly different between the groups (p = 0.512). CONCLUSION TLTG is feasible for obese Japanese patients with GC. To validate the results of the present study, it is necessary to conduct a prospective study of a large population of patients with GC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND How obesity has an impact on operative and oncologic outcomes for gastric cancer patients is unclear, and the influence of obesity on response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) has not been evaluated. METHODS Patients who underwent curative gastrectomy for primary gastric cancer between 2000 and 2018 were retrospectively identified. After stratification for NAC, operative morbidity, mortality, overall survival (OS), and disease-specific survival (DSS) were compared among three body mass index (BMI) categories: normal BMI (< 25 kg/m2), mild obesity (25-35 kg/m2), and severe obesity (≥ 35 kg/m2). RESULTS During the study period, 984 patients underwent upfront surgery, and 484 patients received NAC. Tumor stage did not differ among the BMI groups. However, the rates of pathologic response to NAC were significantly lower for the patients with severe obesity (10% vs 40%; p < 0.001). Overall complications were more frequent among the obese patients (44.3% for obese vs 24.9% for normal BMI, p < 0.001). Intraabdominal infections were also more frequent in obese patients (13.9% for obese vs 4.7% for normal BMI, p = 0.001). In the upfront surgery cohort, according to the BMI, OS and DSS did not differ, whereas in the NAC cohort, severe obesity was independently associated with worse OS [hazard ratio (HR) 1.87; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.01-3.48; p = 0.047] and disease-specific survival (DSS) (HR 2.08; 95% CI 1.07-4.05; p = 0.031). CONCLUSION For the gastric cancer patients undergoing curative gastrectomy, obesity was associated with significantly lower rates of pathologic response to NAC and more postoperative complications, as well as shorter OS and DSS for the patients receiving NAC.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the Li’s and Japanese scoring methods scoring for screening early gastric cancer in a healthy population. Methods During January 2016–December 2018, profiles of the healthy people participated in a physical examination in the first people’s Hospital of Shanghai were collected. A total of 342 volunteers, including 137 males and 205 females ageing 40–74, were enrolled. After recording the basic information, all volunteers were scored using the Japan scoring method and the new gastric cancer screening score (ie, Li’s score). The subjects’ work characteristics (ROC curve) were drawn according to the patient’s endoscopic pathological examination to indicate early gastric cancer, to determine the best cut-off point for the diagnosis of early gastric cancer by Japanese scoring and Li’s scoring, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of both scoring methods were calculated as well. Results The area under the ROC curve of Japanese and Li’s score, in the diagnosis of early gastric cancer, was 0.763 and 0.837, respectively. Japanese and Li’s score ≥14 were considered as the best cut-off point. The sensitivity and specificity of Li’s scoring were 63.60% and 91.10%, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of the Japanese score were 54.50% and 87.50%, respectively. The area under the ROC curve in Li’s scoring is more significant than that in Japanese scoring, and there was a substantial difference in the two methods (P<0.05). Conclusion Both Li’s scoring and Japanese scoring have shown good screening value for early gastric cancer in a healthy population, but Li’s scoring is more sensitive/specific than Japanese scoring.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to investigate the effects of a high body mass index (BMI) on the outcomes of radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 1729 patients with stage I to III gastric cancer who received open radical gastrectomy from February 2003 to August 2011. The patients were divided into 3 groups according to their BMI: a low BMI group (BMI < 18.5 kg/m2), normal BMI group (18.5 ≤ BMI < 25 kg/m2), and high BMI group (BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2). RESULTS A total of 871 patients were included in the final analysis, of which the median BMI was 22.7 kg/m2 (range 13.6-44.9 kg/m2). A high BMI increased the risk of postoperative intestinal fistula but not the risk of a reduced number of examined lymph nodes or hospital death. Furthermore, a high BMI did not negatively affect the overall survival (OS) of gastric cancer patients. CONCLUSIONS A high BMI increased the operative morbidity after radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer. However, a high BMI did not negatively affect the quality of lymphadenectomy or the OS of gastric cancer patients in experienced high-volume centers. A careful approach during operation and meticulous perioperative management are required for gastric cancer patients with a high BMI.

Prognostic Value of Pretreatment Overweight/Obesity and Adipose Tissue Distribution in Resectable Gastric Cancer: A Retrospective Cohort Study. Front Oncol 2021; 11:680190. [PMID: 34249721 PMCID: PMC8264507 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2021.680190] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2021] [Accepted: 06/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This is a study aimed at exploring the relationship between pretreatment overweight/obesity, adipose tissue distribution, and long-term prognosis of gastric cancer. METHODS A total of 607 gastric cancer patients were involved in the retrospective cohort study. Overweight/obese patients were defined as body mass index (BMI) greater than 25 kg/m2, and adipose tissue distribution parameters, including visceral adipose tissue (VAT), subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), and VAT/SAT ratio were measured at the level of the third lumbar vertebra using computerized tomography images within 15 days before the surgery. Multiple Cox regression models were applied to evaluate the association between overweight/obesity and disease-specific survival (DSS) of gastric cancer, and covariates including age, gender, T stage, N stage, and chemotherapy were adjusted. Furthermore, multiple Cox regression models were performed to evaluate the association between adipose tissue distribution parameters and DSS of gastric cancer; except for covariates mentioned above, overweight/obesity was adjusted additionally. RESULTS Overweight/obesity was a predictive factor (HR = 0.61, 95% CI: 0.37-0.99) for the prognosis of gastric cancer. After additionally adjusting for overweight/obesity, high SAT percentage was an independent protective factor (HR = 0.59, 95% CI: 0.36-0.96), while high VAT percentage (HR = 1.68, 95% CI: 1.06-2.68) and high VAT/SAT ratio (HR = 1.99, 95% CI: 1.19-3.34) were independent risk factors for DSS of gastric cancer. Compared with other patients (overweight/obesity with low VAT/SAT ratio group, non-overweight/obesity or high VAT/SAT ratio group), patients in the non-overweight/obesity with high VAT/SAT ratio group had a worse prognosis (HR = 1.89, 95% CI: 1.28-2.77). CONCLUSION These results suggest that overweight/obesity is a predictive factor for the prognosis of gastric cancer. The VAT/SAT ratio could be used as a promising prognostic factor for gastric cancer. Therefore, in preoperative evaluation of gastric cancer patients, attention should be paid not only to BMI but also to adipose tissue distribution.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to clarify the relationship between obesity and postoperative C-reactive protein (CRP) and assess the usefulness of obesity status-adjusted CRP levels for predicting early complications following laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer. METHODS This study retrospectively analyzed 527 patients who underwent laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer between January 2013 and March 2019. Patients were classified into three groups according to body mass index (BMI): BMI < 20; BMI ≥ 20 to < 25; and BMI ≥ 25. The correlation between BMI and perioperative CRP was investigated in 447 patients, excluding 80 with postoperative complications. The optimal CRP cutoff value of Clavien-Dindo (CD) grade ≥ 3 for predicting severe complications for each group was determined. RESULTS BMI was significantly correlated with CRP on postoperative day (POD) 3 (p < 0.001) in 447 patients without complications. According to the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, CRP cutoff values on POD 3 for predicting severe complications were 92.4, 111.1, and 171.9 in the BMI < 20, BMI ≥ 20 to < 25, and BMI ≥ 25 groups, respectively. In multivariate analysis for CD grade ≥ 3 complications, cardiac history and POD 3 CRP levels higher than the adjusted cutoff were identified as independent factors significantly associated with severe complications (p = 0.021 and 0.015, respectively). CONCLUSION CRP cutoff values on POD 3 adjusted for BMI were useful for predicting severe complications in gastrectomy for gastric cancer.

New risk factors of postoperative complications in elective gastrointestinal surgery of elderly patients: a prospective cohort study. BMC Surg 2021; 21:173. [PMID: 33784994 PMCID: PMC8011193 DOI: 10.1186/s12893-021-01171-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2021] [Accepted: 03/19/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal surgery in elderly individuals presents unexpected postoperative complications. However, predicting postoperative complications in elderly patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgeries is challenging because of the lack of a reliable preoperative evaluation system. We aimed to prospectively evaluate three new preoperative assessment methods to predict the postoperative complications in elderly patients undergoing elective gastrointestinal surgery. Moreover, we aimed to identify new risk factors of postoperative complications in this patient group. METHODS This prospective cohort study enrolled 189 patients (age ≥ 65 years) who underwent elective gastrointestinal surgery at Tokyo Medical University Hachioji Medical Center between April 2017 and March 2019. Assessments performed preoperatively included the biological impedance analysis for evaluating the skeletal muscle mass, the SF-8 questionnaire for evaluating the subjective health-related quality of life, and the blood pressure/pulse wave test for assessing arteriosclerosis. The risk factors for Clavien-Dindo Grade ≥ III postoperative complications were assessed using these new evaluation methods. RESULTS Clavien-Dindo Grade ≥ III postoperative complications were observed in 28 patients (14.8%). Univariate and multivariate analyses identified male sex, low skeletal muscle mass, and cardio-ankle vascular index ≥ 10 (arteriosclerosis) as significant independent risk factors of developing Grade ≥ III complications. CONCLUSIONS Male sex, low skeletal muscle mass, and arteriosclerosis were significant risk factors of postoperative complications in elderly patients undergoing elective gastrointestinal surgery. The obtained knowledge could be useful in identifying high-risk patients who require careful perioperative management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between body mass index (BMI) and clinical outcomes remains unclear among patients with resectable gastric cancer. AIM To investigate the relationship between BMI and long-term survival of gastric cancer patients. METHODS This retrospective study included 2526 patients who underwent radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer between September 2013 and June 2018. The patients were divided into four groups: Group A (low BMI, < 18.5 kg/m2), group B (normal BMI, 18.5-24.9 kg/m2), group C (overweight, 25-29.9 kg/m2), and group D (obese, ≥ 30 kg/m2). Clinicopathological findings and survival outcomes were recorded and analyzed. RESULTS Preoperative weight loss was more common in the low-BMI group, while diabetes was more common in the obese group. Upper-third gastric cancer accounted for a large proportion of cases in the higher BMI groups. Major perioperative complications tended to increase with BMI. The 5-year overall survival rates were 66.4% for group A, 75.0% for group B, 77.1% for group C, and 78.6% for group D. The 5-year overall survival rate was significantly lower in group A than in group C (P = 0.008) or group D (P = 0.031). Relative to a normal BMI value, a BMI of < 18.5 kg/m2 was associated with poor survival (hazard ratio: 1.558, 95% confidence interval: 1.125-2.158, P = 0.008). CONCLUSION Low BMI, but not high BMI, independently predicted poor survival in patients with resectable gastric cancer.

Obesity is not a risk factor for either mortality or complications after laparoscopic cholecystectomy for cholecystitis. Sci Rep 2021; 11:2384.

Abstract
Obesity is a positive predictor of surgical morbidity. There are few reports of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) outcomes in obese patients. This study aimed to clarify this relationship. This retrospective study included patients who underwent LC at Showa University Northern Yokohama Hospital between January 2017 and April 2020. A total of 563 cases were examined and divided into two groups: obese (n = 142) (BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2) and non-obese (n = 241) (BMI < 25 kg/m2). The non-obese group had more female patients (54%), whereas the obese group had more male patients (59.1%). The obese group was younger (56.6 years). Preoperative laboratory data of liver function were within the normal range. The obese group had a significantly higher white blood cell (WBC) count (6420/μL), although this was within normal range. Operative time was significantly longer in the obese group (p = 0.0001). However, blood loss and conversion rate were not significantly different among the groups, neither were surgical outcomes, including postoperative hospital stay and complications. Male sex and previous abdominal surgery were risk factors for conversion, and only advanced age (≥ 79 years) was an independent predictor of postoperative complications as observed in the multivariate analysis. Although the operation time was prolonged in obese patients, operative factors and outcomes were not. Therefore, LC could be safely performed in obese patients with similar efficacy as in non-obese patients.

Laparoscopic versus open distal gastrectomy for advanced gastric cancer: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials and high-quality nonrandomized comparative studies. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY 2020; 46:1998-2010. [PMID: 32758382 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2020.06.046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2020] [Revised: 06/01/2020] [Accepted: 06/29/2020] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Controversy persists about the effects of laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (LDG) versus open distal gastrectomy (ODG) on short-term surgical outcomes and long-term survival within the field of advanced gastric cancer (AGC). METHODS Studies published from January 1994 to February 2020 that compare LDG and ODG for AGC were identified. All randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were included. The selection of high-quality nonrandomized comparative studies (NRCTs) was based on a validated tool (Methodological Index for Nonrandomized Studies, MINORS). The short- and long-term outcomes of both procedures were compared. RESULTS Overall, 30 studies were included in this meta-analysis, which comprised of 8 RCTs and 22 NRCTs involving 16,029 patients (7864 LDGs, 8165 ODGs). The recurrence, 3-year disease-free survival (DFS), 3-year overall survival (OS), and 5-year OS rates for LDG and ODG were comparable. LDG was associated with a lower postoperative complication rate (OR 0.79; P < 0.00001), lower estimated volume of blood loss (WMD -102.21 mL; P < 0.00001), shorter postoperative hospital stay (WMD -1.96 days; P < 0.0001), shorter time to first flatus (WMD -0.54 day; P = 0.0007) and shorter time to first liquid diet (WMD -0.66 day; P = 0.001). The number of lymph nodes retrieved, mortality, intraoperative complications, intraoperative blood transfusion, and time to ambulation were similar. However, LDG was associated with a longer surgical time (WMD 33.57 min; P < 0.00001). CONCLUSIONS LDG with D2 lymphadenectomy is a safe and effective technique for patients with AGC when performed by experienced surgeons at high-volume specialized centers.

Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the body mass index (BMI) and the short-term outcomes of laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG). Subjects and Methods Data of patients who underwent LTG for gastric cancer at six institutions between 2004 and 2018 were retrospectively collected. The patients were classified into three groups: low BMI (<18.5 kg/m2), normal BMI (≥18.5 and <25 kg/m2) and high BMI (≥25 kg/m2). In these patients, clinicopathological variables were analysed using propensity score matching for age, sex, the American Society of Anaesthesiologists physical state, clinical stage, surgical method, D2 lymph node dissection, combined resection of other organs, anastomosis method and jejunal pouch reconstruction. The surgical results and post-operative outcomes were compared among the three groups. Results A total of 82 patients were matched in the analysis of the low BMI and normal BMI groups. There were no differences in operative time (P = 0.693), blood loss (P = 0.150), post-operative complication (P = 0.762) and post-operative hospital stay (P = 0.448). In the analysis of the normal BMI and high BMI groups, 208 patients were matched. There were also no differences in blood loss (P = 0.377), post-operative complication (P = 0.249) and post-operative hospital stay (P = 0.676). However, the operative time was significantly longer in the high BMI group (P = 0.023). Conclusions Despite the association with a longer operative time in the high BMI group, BMI had no significant effect on the surgical outcomes of LTG. LTG could be performed safely regardless of BMI.

Abstract
Background Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy is used widely in surgery for gastric cancer. Excess visceral fat can limit the ability to dissect the suprapancreatic region, potentially increasing the risk of local complications, particularly pancreatic fistula. This study evaluated perirenal fat thickness as a surrogate for visceral fat to see whether this was related to complications after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy. Methods Perirenal fat thickness was measured dorsal to the left kidney as an indicator of visceral fat in patients with gastric cancer who underwent laparoscopic distal gastrectomy. Patients were divided into two groups: those with and those without complications. The relationship between perirenal fat thickness and postoperative complications was evaluated. Results The optimal cut‐off value for predicting morbidity using adipose tissue thickness was 10·7 mm; a distance equal to or greater than this was considered a positive perirenal fat thickness sign (PTS). A positive PTS showed a significant correlation with visceral fat area. Multivariable analysis found that a positive PTS was an independent risk factor for complications (hazard ratio 4·42, 95 per cent c.i. 2·31 to 8·86; P < 0·001). Conclusion Perirenal fat thickness as an indicator of visceral fat was an independent predictor of postoperative complications after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer.

Abstract
Purpose: The present study focused on the long-term prognostic value of dynamic body mass index (BMI) change in gastric cancer patients who underwent gastrectomy. Methods: Clinical data from a total of 576 gastric cancer patients who underwent radical gastrectomy were collected. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to demonstrate the association between dynamic BMI variables (BMI before surgery, 1 month, 6 months or 12 months after surgery) and prognosis (DFS and OS). The correlation between BMI loss after surgery and survival outcomes was also evaluated. Results: Post-operative BMI, especially BMI at one year after surgery (p<0.001), was an independent risk factor of recurrence and mortality, wherein patients with high-BMI (≥23) showed significantly better outcomes than patients with normal-BMI (18.5-23) (DFS, HR:0.49; 95% CI:0.31-0.78; OS, HR:0.30; 95% CI: 0.15-0.59). On the contrary, low-BMI (<18.5) patients presented with worse outcomes (DFS, HR: 1.34; 95% CI: 1.00-1.80; OS, HR: 1.68; 95% CI: 1.20-2.34). In addition, compared with moderate BMI loss (≤10%), severe postoperative BMI loss (>10%) at one year was independently associated with substantially worse prognosis for DFS (HR: 1.54; 95% CI: 1.15-2.08) and OS (HR: 1.45; 95% CI: 1.02-2.06). Subgroup analysis indicated that gender (p=0.03), extent of resection (p<0.001), tumor site (p=0.001) and perineural invasion (p=0.007) were associated with postoperative BMI loss at one year. The prognostic value of postoperative BMI loss at one year was consistent among most clinicopathological subgroups, except for tumor site (interaction p=0.025 for OS). Conclusion: In Chinese gastric cancer patients who underwent gastrectomy, higher postoperative BMI (≥ 23) was significantly associated with longer survival time, whereas severe BMI loss (>10%) at one year after surgery was associated with worse outcomes. Thus, body weight maintenance after treatment is important, and dynamic monitoring of body weight and nutritional status should be emphasized in clinical practice.

World J Gastroenterol 2020; 26:1613-1627. [PMID: 32327910 PMCID: PMC7167420 DOI: 10.3748/wjg.v26.i14.1613] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2019] [Revised: 03/05/2020] [Accepted: 03/19/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lifestyle factors such as body mass index (BMI), alcohol drinking, and cigarette smoking, are likely to impact the prognosis of gastric cancer, but the evidence has been inconsistent.
AIM To investigate the association of lifestyle factors and long-term prognosis of gastric cancer patients in the China National Cancer Center.
METHODS Patients with gastric cancer were identified from the China National Cancer Center Gastric Cancer Database 1998-2018. Survival analysis was performed via Kaplan-Meier estimates and Cox proportional hazards models.
RESULTS In this study, we reviewed 18441 cases of gastric cancer. Individuals who were overweight or obese were associated with a positive smoking and drinking history (P = 0.002 and P < 0.001, respectively). Current smokers were more likely to be current alcohol drinkers (61.3% vs 10.1% vs 43.2% for current, never, and former smokers, respectively, P < 0.001). Multivariable results indicated that BMI at diagnosis had no significant effect on prognosis. In gastrectomy patients, factors independently associated with poor survival included older age (HR = 1.20, 95%CI: 1.05-1.38, P = 0.001), any weight loss (P < 0.001), smoking history of more than 30 years (HR = 1.14, 95%CI: 1.04-1.24, P = 0.004), and increasing pTNM stage (P < 0.001).
CONCLUSION In conclusion, our results contribute to a better understanding of lifestyle factors on the overall burden of gastric cancer and long-term prognosis. In these patients, weight loss (both in the 0 to 10% and > 10% groups) but not BMI at diagnosis was related to survival outcomes. With regard to other factors, smoking history of more than 30 years conferred a worse prognosis only in patients who underwent gastrectomy. Extensive efforts are needed to elucidate mechanisms targeting the complex effects of lifestyle factors.

Surgical Outcomes and Follow-Up Results of 100 Cases of Laparoscopic Total Gastrectomy Using the Overlap Method with Stapled Closure. THE JOURNAL OF MINIMALLY INVASIVE SURGERY 2019; 22:150-156. [PMID: 35601369 PMCID: PMC8980157 DOI: 10.7602/jmis.2019.22.4.150] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2019] [Revised: 07/12/2019] [Accepted: 08/26/2019] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Purpose The overlap method is one of the most popular procedures for construction of an esophagojejunostomy and its common entry is usually closed with sutures. This study aimed to report long-term complications and surgical outcomes of the overlap method with stapled closure (OMSC), to compare them with those of laparoscopy-assisted total gastrectomy (LATG), and to analyze a learning curve. Methods Between January 2015 and August 2017, 100 consecutive patients underwent laparoscopic total gastrectomy with OMSC for gastric cancer and the patients’ medical records were reviewed. Their clinicopathologic characteristics, surgical outcomes, and long-term complications were investigated and compared with those of the LATG group. A learning curve of OMSC was analyzed using the Exponentially Weighted Moving Average chart. Results The overall duration of surgery was shorter in the LATG group; however, there was no difference in patients with early gastric cancer. Hospital admission was shorter and the pain scale was lower in the OMSC group. There was no difference in the number of harvested lymph nodes, date of flatus, or incidence of postoperative morbidity. Both groups showed no duodenal stump leakage, anastomosis-related complications, recurrence, or mortality during the follow-up period. Petersen hernia was a notable long-term event following OMSC compared with LATG. At least 27 cases of surgery were required to reach a plateau in terms of surgery duration for OMSC. Conclusion OMSC is a safe option for the treatment of gastric cancer and has favorable long-term results and surgical outcomes. Closure of mesenteric defects and Petersen space should be considered.

Lancet Gastroenterol Hepatol 2019; 5:142-151. [PMID: 31757656 DOI: 10.1016/s2468-1253(19)30332-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 215] [Impact Index Per Article: 35.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2019] [Revised: 09/13/2019] [Accepted: 09/18/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG) is increasingly being used as an alternative to open distal gastrectomy (ODG) for gastric cancer treatment. Retrospective studies have shown equivalent survival with the two procedures, but these studies are limited by selection bias because LADG is more technically difficult than ODG. We aimed to evaluate whether LADG was non-inferior to ODG in terms of long-term survival outcomes. METHODS We did an open-label, multicentre, non-inferiority, phase 3 randomised controlled trial at 33 institutions in Japan. Patients aged 20-80 years with histologically confirmed gastric adenocarcinoma (T1N0, T1N1, or T2[MP]N0), clinical stage I, in the middle or lower third of the stomach, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1, with a body-mass index of less than 30 kg/m2, were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive ODG or LADG. Randomisation was done by telephone, fax, or with a web-based system in the Japan Clinical Oncology Group Data Center; a minimisation method with a random component was used to adjust for institution and clinical stage (IA or IB). Only study-accredited surgeons performed ODG and LADG. The primary endpoint was relapse-free survival and was analysed according to the intention-to-treat principle. The non-inferiority margin (LADG vs ODG) was set at a hazard ratio (HR) of 1·54. The trial was registered with the UMIN Clinical Trials Registry, UMIN000003319. FINDINGS Between March 15, 2010, and Nov 29, 2013, 921 patients were enrolled and randomly assigned to receive ODG (n=459) or LADG (n=462). 912 (99%) participants had the assigned surgery. 5-year relapse-free survival was 94·0% (95% CI 91·4-95·9) in the ODG group and 95·1% (92·7-96·8) in the LADG group. LADG was non-inferior to ODG for relapse-free survival (HR 0·84 [90% CI 0·56-1·27]), p=0·0075). The most common grade 3 or 4 adverse event was bowel obstruction, occurring in 11 (2%) of 455 patients in the ODG group and five (1%) of 457 patients in the LADG group. There were no treatment-related deaths. INTERPRETATION This trial supports the non-inferiority of LADG compared with ODG for clinical stage I gastric cancer relapse-free survival, suggesting that LADG should be considered a standard treatment option when performed by experienced surgeons.

Abstract
Objective: Gastric cancer is one of the most common types of cancers, which will result in irreparable harm in the case of misdiagnosis or late diagnosis. The purpose of this study is to investigate the capability of data mining techniques and disease risk factor characteristics to predict and diagnose the gastric cancer. Methods: In this retrospective descriptive-analytic study, we selected 405 samples from two groups of patient and healthy participants. A total of 11 characteristics and risk factors were examined. we used four Machine learning methods, Include support vector machine (SVM), decision tree (DT), naive Bayesian model, and k nearest neighborhood (KNN) to classify the patients with gastric cancer. The evaluation criteria to investigate the model on the database of patients with gastric cancer included Recall, Precision, F-score, and Accuracy. Data was analyzed using MATLAB® software, version 3.2 (Mathworks Inc., Natick, MA, USA). Results: Based on the results achieved from the evaluation of four methods, the accuracy rates of SVM, DT, naive Bayesian model, and KNN algorithms were 90.08, 87.89, 87.60, and 87.60 percent, respectively. The findings showed that the highest level of F-Score was related to the SVM (91.99); whereas, the lowest rate was associated with the KNN algorithm (87.17). Conclusion: According to the findings, the SVM algorithm showed the best results in classification of Test samples. So, this intelligent system can be used as a physician assistant in medical education hospitals, where the diagnosis processes are performed by medical students.

Asian J Surg 2019; 43:69-77. [PMID: 31036475 DOI: 10.1016/j.asjsur.2019.03.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2019] [Revised: 03/19/2019] [Accepted: 03/28/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of high body mass index (BMI) on surgical outcome of laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer (GC). Systematic literature search was performed using PubMed and Embase databases. The relevant data were extracted, and surgical outcomes and postoperative complications were compared between BMI≥25 kg/m2 and BMI<25 kg/m2 group using a fixed effect model or random effect model. 16 studies, with a total of 9572 GC patients, were included in this meta-analysis. The results indicated that operation time was significantly longer (WMD:16.22, 95% CI: 14.10-18.34, P < 0.001; I2 = 0%) and the number of lymph nodes retrieved was significantly fewer (WMD:-2.11, 95%CI: -3.14, -1.07, P < 0.001; I2 = 64.0%) in high BMI patients than in other patients. In addition, the amount of intraoperative blood loss was significantly larger in high BMI patients (WMD: 23.43, 95%CI: 20.05-26.81, P < 0.001; I2 = 40.3%). Compared with non-high BMI patients, overweight and obese patients had a higher risk of postoperative complications (RR:1.26, 95%CI: 1.11-1.43, P < 0.001; I2 = 39.1%), especially for wound infection (RR:1.62, 95%CI: 1.15-2.29, P < 0.01; I2 = 18.8%) and postoperative ileus (RR:1.80, 95% CI: 1.05-3.09, P < 0.05; I2 = 0%). However, there was no significant difference between two patient groups for postoperative recovery, major surgery-related complications (eg: anastomotic leakage, pancreatic fistula and intra-abdominal bleeding) and postoperative mortality. Despite increased technical challenge and risk of postoperative complications, the majority of these complications may be minor and cured. Laparoscopic gastrectomy for GC was a feasible and safe procedure even for high BMI patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is still remains unclear whether high-risk patients with gastric cancer can benefit from the application of laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG). The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the surgical and long-term outcomes after LG and open gastrectomy (OG) for high-risk patients with gastric cancer. METHODS We performed a systematic literature search in various databases from January 1994 to June 2018. Patients who had≥1 of the following conditions were defined as high-risk patients: (1) age≥70 years; (2) BMI≥30 kg/m2; (3) ASA (American Society of Anesthesiologists) grade≥3; or (4) clinical T4 stage (cT4). The results were analyzed according to predefined criteria. RESULTS In the present meta-analysis, the outcomes of 12 non-randomized controlled studies enrolling 1651 patients (873 in the LG group and 778 in the OG group) were pooled. The estimated blood loss was significantly lower in the LG group than those in the OG group (P < 0.01). There was no significant difference between two groups in operative time (P = 0.17) and number of harvested lymph nodes (P = 0.21). In the LG group, the time to flatus (P < 0.01), time to food intake (P < 0.01), and postoperative hospital stay (P < 0.01) were significantly shorter than those in the OG group. A lower overall postoperative complication rate was observed in the LG group (P < 0.01). The incidence of surgical (P < 0.01) and non-surgical (P < 0.01) complication was significantly lower in the LG group than that in the OG group. The pooled analysis showed no significant difference in overall survival (OS) between LG and OG groups (P = 0.98). CONCLUSIONS LG can be a safe and feasible procedure for high-risk patients with gastric cancer.

Abstract
AIM To investigate safety and oncological feasibility of laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG) in overweight (OW) patients.
METHODS Patients who underwent total gastrectomy (110 laparoscopic, 211 open) for gastric cancer between January 1999 and July 2016 were included. Propensity score matching selected 152 patients (76 laparoscopic, 76 open), which were subsequently divided into the OW (≥ 25) or non-OW (< 25) group by body mass index. Postoperative outcomes of laparoscopic versus open approaches were compared between OW and non-OW groups.
RESULTS In the propensity-matched population, baseline characteristics were comparable between the OW and non-OW groups for the laparoscopy and open groups. In the laparoscopy group, operative time was longer (P = 0.01) in the OW group, however, other perioperative results including complication rates were comparable between the non-OW and OW groups. In the open group, number of retrieved lymph nodes were less (P = 0.03) and local complication rate was more frequent (P = 0.03) in the OW group.
CONCLUSION LTG in OW patients remains technically challenging but can be performed safely. Our findings imply that OW has a lesser effect on the laparoscopic versus open approach to total gastrectomy.

[PMID: 30568953 PMCID: PMC6288510 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v6.i15.985] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2018] [Revised: 10/24/2018] [Accepted: 11/01/2018] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
AIM To perform a meta-analysis to investigate the correlation between body mass index (BMI) and the short-term outcomes of laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) for gastric cancer (GC) in Asian patients.
METHODS The PubMed, Cochrane, EMBASE, and Web of Science databases were searched for studies that focused on the impact of obesity on the short-term outcomes of LG for GC in Asian patients who were classified into a high BMI (BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2) or low BMI group (BMI < 25 kg/m2). The results are expressed using the pooled odds ratio (OR) for binary variables and standard mean difference (SMD) for continuous variables with 95% confidence interval (CI), and were calculated according to the fixed-effects model while heterogeneity was not apparent or a random-effects model while heterogeneity was apparent.
RESULTS Nine studies, with a total sample size of 6077, were included in this meta-analysis. Compared with the low BMI group, the high BMI group had longer operative time (SMD = 0.26, 95%CI: 0.21 to 0.32, P < 0.001), greater blood loss (SMD = 0.19, 95%CI: 0.12 to 0.25, P < 0.001), and fewer retrieved lymph nodes (SMD = -0.13, 95%CI: 0.18 to 0.07, P < 0.001). There was no significant difference between the high and low BMI groups in postoperative complications (OR = 1.12, 95%CI: 0.95 to 1.33, P = 0.169), the duration of postoperative hospital stay (SMD = 0.681, 95%CI: -0.05 to 0.07, P = 0.681), postoperative mortality (OR = 1.95, 95%CI: 0.78 to 4.89, P = 0.153), or time to resuming food intake (SMD = 0.00, 95%CI: -0.06 to 0.06, P = 0.973).
CONCLUSION Our meta-analysis provides strong evidence that despite being associated with longer operative time, greater blood loss, and fewer retrieved lymph nodes, BMI has no significant impact on the short-term outcomes of LG for GC in Asian patients, including postoperative complications, the duration of postoperative hospital stay, postoperative mortality, and time to resuming food intake. BMI may be a poor risk factor for short-term outcomes of LG. Other indices should be taken into account.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of the study was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of a new surgical procedure named modularized laparoscopic regional En bloc mesogastrium excision (rEME) based on the membrane anatomy in distal laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer. METHODS From January 2014 to June 2017, 92 consecutive cases of patients with stages I-III distal gastric cancer were divided into 2 groups: laparoscopic radical gastrectomy plus standard D2 lymph node dissection (SD group, n = 44) and modularized rEME (rEME group, n = 48). Evaluations were made in terms of the operative data, pathological results, recovery time of digestive tract functions, complications, and length of stay. RESULTS 85 patients (SD group, n = 40 and rEME group, n = 45) were finally included for analysis. There were no significant differences in the median total numbers of dissected LNs (31.98 ± 10.48 vs. 34.93 ± 13.12, p = 0.261), LNs in the greater curvature (12.18 ± 6.55 vs. 13.62 ± 8.09, p = 0.444), LNs in the lesser curvature (19.55 ± 7.40 vs. 17.98 ± 8.31, p = 0.365) between the SD and rEME groups. The rEME group showed lower loss of blood volume (107.11 ± 60.13 ml vs. 146.25 ± 85.78 ml, p = 0.019). No significant differences were found in recovery time of digestive tract functions, postoperative complication rates and length of hospital stay between the two groups. CONCLUSION Laparoscopic radical gastrectomy plus modularized rEME based on the membrane anatomy is a safe and feasible procedure for distal gastric cancer.

Does high body mass index negatively affect the surgical outcome and long-term survival of gastric cancer patients who underwent gastrectomy: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Eur J Surg Oncol 2018; 44:1971-1981. [PMID: 30348605 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2018.09.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2018] [Revised: 09/05/2018] [Accepted: 09/16/2018] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether high body mass index (BMI) was associated with increased postoperative complications and unfavorable prognosis of gastric cancer (GC) patients remain controversial. In the present study, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the impact of high BMI on surgical outcome, postoperative complications and long-term survival of GC patients. METHODS The related studies were identified by searching PubMed and Embase databases. According to the BMI, all GC patients were classified into BMI ≥25 kg/m2 group and BMI <25 kg/m2 group. The relevant data was extracted and pooled effect size was assessed using a fixed effect model or random effect model. RESULTS A total of 36 relevant studies involving 30,642 GC patients were included in this meta-analysis. The results indicated that high BMI patients had longer operation time, fewer number of retrieved lymph nodes and larger amount of intraoperative blood loss than other patients, regardless of open gastrectomy or laparoscopic gastrectomy. In addition, the risk of postoperative complications was significantly higher in the patients with BMI ≥25 kg/m2 than in those with BMI <25 kg/m2, especially for infectious complications. However, high BMI had no negative impact on postoperative mortality and long-term survival of GC patients. CONCLUSION Despite the increased surgical difficulty and postoperative complications, high BMI was not associated with the prognosis of GC patients. To reduce the risk of postoperative complications, more meticulous operation technique and improved perioperative management should be necessary for high BMI patients.

Abstract
Background: Most patients with gastric cancer rapidly lose weight after gastrectomy. Therefore, analysis of the effect of body mass index (BMI) on patients with gastric cancer survival should include postoperative BMI and BMI loss and preoperative BMI. This retrospective cohort study analyzed the effect of three BMI variables and their interaction on long-term outcomes.Methods: Preoperative BMI analysis included 2,063 patients with gastric cancer who underwent curative gastrectomy between January 2009 and December 2013 at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital. BMI at postoperative 6 to 12 months was available in 1,845 of these cases.Results: Patients with preoperative BMI 23.0 to <27.5 [HR, 0.63; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.48-0.82 for BMI 23.0 to <25.0 and HR, 0.57; 95% CI, 0.42-0.78 for BMI 25.0 to <27.5] and postoperative BMI 23.0 to <25.0 (HR, 0.67; 95% CI, 0.46-0.98) showed significantly better overall survival (OS) than pre- and postoperative patients with BMI 18.5 to <23.0, respectively. Postoperative underweight (BMI <18.5; HR, 1.74; 95% CI, 1.27-2.37) and postoperative severe BMI loss (>4.5; HR, 1.79; 95% CI, 1.29-2.50) were associated with higher mortality. Severe BMI loss and preoperative BMI <23.0 had an adverse synergistic effect; patients with BMI <23.0 were more vulnerable to severe BMI loss than those with BMI ≥23.0. Associations with cancer-specific survival were similar.Conclusions: All three BMI variables were prognostic factors for survival of patients with gastric cancer. Preoperative BMI and severe BMI loss had an interaction.Impact: Perioperative BMI and weight loss should be analyzed collectively in patients with gastric cancer undergoing gastrectomy.
