231 Background: Pancreatic mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCN) are defined by presence of ovarian stroma per WHO 2000 classification. Given their malignant potential, current guidelines recommend resection. However, there are limited data on preoperative risk factors for adenocarcinoma (AC) and high grade dysplasia (HGD) occurring in an MCN. Methods: MCN resections from 2000-2014 at the 8 institutions of the Central Pancreas Consortium were included. Patients with and without AC/HGD were compared. Primary aims were to determine preoperative risk factors for AC/HGD in an MCN and to assess outcomes of MCN-associated AC. Results: Of 1667 resections for pancreatic cystic lesions, 349 pts (21%) had an MCN with 52 (15%) having MCN-associated AC/HGD. Male gender (29 vs 8%; p<0.001), head/neck location (39 vs 13%; p<0.001), increased MCN size (7.2 vs 4.6 cm; p=0.004), radiographic presence of a solid component/mural nodule (54 vs 20%; p<0.001), and duct dilation (43 vs 12%; p<0.001) were associated with AC/HGD compared to benign MCN. All persisted as independent predictors of MCN-associated AC/HGD (Table). AC/HGD was not associated with presence of radiographic septations or preoperative cyst fluid analysis (CEA, amylase, or mucin). Median CA19-9 for patients with AC/HGD was 210 vs 15 U/ml for those without (p=0.001). In the 44 pts with AC, 41 (93%) had lymph nodes harvested with nodal metastases in only 14 (34%). Median FU for pts with AC was 27 mos. AC recurred in 12 pts (27%) with a 3-yr RFS of 59%. OS for pts with MCN-associated AC was 64% at 3 yrs. Conclusions: Adenocarcinoma or high grade dysplasia is present in 15% of resected pancreatic mucinous cystic neoplasms. Pre-operative factors associated with AC/HGD in an MCN include male gender, head/neck location, larger MCN, solid component/mural nodule, and duct dilation on imaging. MCN-associated AC appears to have decreased LN involvement and increased RFS and OS compared to typical pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. [Table: see text]

The Difference

Background: Several studies have reported further reduction in joint space width (JSW) after meniscal allograft transplantation; some contributing postoperative factors are known, although preoperative factors remain unclear. This study is the first to analyze the preoperative risk factors for reduced JSW in patients after lateral meniscal allograft transplantation (LMAT). Hypothesis: Poor cartilage status and high preoperative body mass index (BMI) influence the postoperative progression of joint space narrowing. Study Design: Case-control study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: We retrospectively studied 79 patients after LMAT who were observed for at least 5 years. JSWs on weightbearing flexion posteroanterior radiographs were measured preoperatively and at the 5-year mark. Differences in JSW were divided into more progression and less progression groups. The modified Outerbridge cartilage grades based on magnetic resonance imaging assessments were compared at subtotal/total meniscectomy and at LMAT to determine the difference between time points. Preoperative between-group differences in sex, age, surgical side, follow-up period, weight, height, BMI, and meniscal deficiency period were analyzed. Clinical outcomes were evaluated using the Lysholm score. Data were examined using univariate and multivariate logistic regressions. Results: Radiographically, the overall change in JSW from preoperative to follow-up was 0.58 mm (range, –0.23 to 1.83 mm). Reductions in JSW in the more progression and less progression groups were 0.94 ± 0.32 and 0.22 ± 0.21 mm (mean ± SD), respectively. There was no difference in cartilage status between the groups at meniscectomy or LMAT; however, changes between time points were significant on the lateral femoral condyle and lateral tibial plateau. Clinically, there were significant differences in weight, BMI, and meniscal deficiency period between the 2 groups. Postoperative Lysholm scores increased as compared with the preoperative scores, but there was no difference among the postoperative time points. In the univariate logistic regression risk analysis, weight, BMI, meniscal deficiency period, and the difference in cartilage status between time points for the lateral femoral condyle and lateral tibial plateau were identified as significant. In the subsequent multivariate logistic regression, BMI (odds ratio, 1.45; P = .016) and meniscal deficiency period (odds ratio, 1.21; P = .037) were the statistically significant factors. Conclusion: BMI and meniscal deficiency period were preoperative risk factors for JSW narrowing after LMAT. This suggests that the meniscal deficiency period from meniscectomy to LMAT may be shortened and that proper weight management can lead to successful LMAT.

Abstract Background This study aimed to explore the preoperative risk factors related to blood transfusion after hip fracture operations and to establish a nomogram prediction model. The application of this model will likely reduce unnecessary transfusions and avoid wasting blood products. Methods This was a retrospective analysis of all patients undergoing hip fracture surgery from January 2013 to January 2020. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the association between preoperative risk factors and blood transfusion after hip fracture operations. Finally, the risk factors obtained from the multivariate regression analysis were used to establish the nomogram model. The validation of the nomogram was assessed by the concordance index (C-index), the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, decision curve analysis (DCA), and calibration curves. Results A total of 820 patients were included in the present study for evaluation. Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that low preoperative hemoglobin (Hb), general anesthesia (GA), non-use of tranexamic acid (TXA), and older age were independent risk factors for blood transfusion after hip fracture operation. The C-index of this model was 0.86 (95% CI, 0.83–0.89). Internal validation proved the nomogram model’s adequacy and accuracy, and the results showed that the predicted value agreed well with the actual values. Conclusions A nomogram model was developed based on independent risk factors for blood transfusion after hip fracture surgery. Preoperative intervention can effectively reduce the incidence of blood transfusion after hip fracture operations.
