The Impact

e15540 Background: Recent research has demonstrated the impact that body composition parameters can have on the outcomes following cancer surgery. Adipose tissue deposition in muscle, known as myosteatosis, can be detected on pre-operative imaging. This systematic review aims to analyse the impact of pre-operative myosteatosis on long-term outcomes following surgery for gastro-intestinal malignancy. Methods: Using MeSH terms, a systematic search of the databases PubMed MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane, CINAHL and AMED was performed. Studies were included if they reported hazard ratios (HR) analysing the impact of pre-operatively defined myosteatosis, or similar term, on the long-term outcomes following surgery for gastro-intestinal malignancy. A total of 39 full texts articles were reviewed for inclusion, with 19 being included after the inclusion criteria were applied. A sub-group analysis was performed for those studies reporting outcomes for colorectal cancer patients only. Results: The total number of included patients across all studies was 14,481. Patients with myosteatosis had a significantly poorer overall survival, according to univariate (HR 1.82, 95% CI 1.67 – 1.99) and multivariable (HR 1.66, 95% CI 1.49 – 1.86) analysis. This was also demonstrated with regards to cancer-specific survival (univariate HR 1.62, 95% CI 1.18 – 2.22, multivariable HR 1.73, 95% CI 1.48 – 2.03) and recurrence-free survival (univariate HR 1.28, 95% CI 1.10 – 1.48, multivariable HR 1.38, 95% CI 1.07 – 1.77). Conclusions: This review demonstrates that patients with pre-operative myosteatosis have poorer long-term outcomes following surgery for gastro-intestinal malignancy. Therefore, myosteatosis should be used for pre-operative optimisation and as a prognostic tool before surgery. More standardised definitions of myosteatosis and further cohort studies of patients with non-colorectal malignancies are required.

Abstract Background The effect of the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) on the prognosis of patients with gastrointestinal malignancy remains unclear. The aim of our study was to systematically explore the value of the GNRI in evaluating postoperative complications and long-term outcomes in gastrointestinal malignancy. Methods A systematic literature search was conducted using electronic databases to report the impact of the GNRI on postoperative complications and long-term outcomes of patients with gastrointestinal malignancies as of August 2020. The hazard ratio (HR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI) was used to evaluate the impact of the GNRI on long-term outcomes. The risk ratio (RR) with 95% CI was used to assess the impact of the GNRI on postoperative complications. Result A total of nine studies with 2,153 patients were enrolled in our meta-analysis. The results suggested that a low GNRI was correlated with poor overall survival of patients with gastrointestinal malignancy (HR = 1.94, 95% CI 1.65–2.28, p < 0.001). Patients with a low GNRI had a higher risk of complications than patients with a high GNRI (OR = 2.19, 95% CI 1.57–3.05, p < 0.001). In addition, patients with a low GNRI had shorter relapse-free survival (HR = 2.45, 95% CI 1.50–4.00, p < 0.001) and disease-free survival (HR = 1.84, 95% CI 1.23–2.76, p = 0.003) than those with a high GNRI. However, the GNRI was not an independent factor affecting cancer-specific survival (HR = 1.60, 95% CI 0.91–2.82, p = 0.101). Conclusion Based on existing evidence, the GNRI was a valuable predictor of complications and long-term outcomes in patients with gastrointestinal malignancy.

The Impact

Background Over 600 RCTs have demonstrated the effectiveness of psychosocial interventions for children and young people’s mental health, but little is known about the long-term outcomes. This systematic review sought to establish whether the effects of selective and indicated interventions were sustained at 12 months. Method We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis focusing on studies reporting medium term outcomes (12 months after end of intervention). Findings We identified 138 trials with 12-month follow-up data, yielding 165 comparisons, 99 of which also reported outcomes at end of intervention, yielding 117 comparisons. We found evidence of effect relative to control at end of intervention (K = 115, g = 0.39; 95% CI: 0.30–0.47 I2 = 84.19%, N = 13,982) which was maintained at 12 months (K = 165, g = 0.31, CI: 0.25–0.37, I2 = 77.35%, N = 25,652) across a range of diagnostic groups. We explored the impact of potential moderators on outcome, including modality, format and intensity of intervention, selective or indicated intervention, site of delivery, professional/para-professional and fidelity of delivery. We assessed both risk of study bias and publication bias. Conclusions Psychosocial interventions provided in a range of settings by professionals and paraprofessionals can deliver lasting benefits. High levels of heterogeneity, moderate to high risk of bias for most studies and evidence of publication bias require caution in interpreting the results. Lack of studies in diagnostic groups such as ADHD and self-harm limit the conclusions that can be drawn. Programmes that increase such interventions’ availability are justified by the benefits to children and young people and the decreased likelihood of disorder in adulthood.

Abstract Objective Liver pedicle clamping minimizes surgical bleeding during hepatectomy. However, by inducing ischemia-reperfusion injury to the remnant liver, pedicle clamping may be associated with tumor recurrence in the regenerating liver. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) having a high rate of recurrence, evidences demonstrating an eventual association with pedicle clamping is strongly needed. Methods We did a systematic review of the literature until April 2020, looking at studies reporting the impact of liver pedicle clamping on long-term outcomes in patients undergoing liver resection for HCC. Primary and secondary outcomes were overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival, respectively. Results Results were obtained by random-effect meta-analysis and expressed as standardized mean difference (SMD). Eleven studies were included, accounting for 8087 patients. Results of seven studies were pooled in a meta-analysis. Findings indicated that, as compared to control patients who did not receive liver pedicle clamping, those who did had a significantly shorter OS (SMD = -0.172, 95%CI: -0.298 to -0.047, p = 0.007, I2=76.8%) and higher tumor recurrence rates (odds ratio 1.36 1.01 to 1.83. p = 0.044, I2=50.7%). Conclusion This meta-analysis suggests that liver pedicle clamping may have a deleterious impact on long-term outcomes. An individual patient-data meta-analysis of randomized trials evaluating liver pedicle clamping is urgently needed.
