Role of Albumin as a Nutritional and Prognostic Marker in Elective Intestinal Surgery by Christian Galata, Linda Busse, Emrullah Birgin, Christel Weiß, Julia Hardt, Christoph Reißfelder, Mirko Otto

“…Postoperatively, the reduction in serum albumin (∆-albumin) on postoperative day (POD) 1/2 (p=0.025) and POD 4/5 (p=0.003) was significantly associated with Clavien–Dindo complications ≥grade III. A cut-off value of 27.3% for ∆-albumin on POD 1/2 predicted postoperative high-grade morbidity (sensitivity 75% and specificity 69%). …”

Previous Intestinal Resection Is Associated with Postoperative Complications in Crohn’s Disease: A Cohort Study by Yantao Duan, Yifan Liu, Yousheng Li

“…Patients who had previous surgery had a longer duration of operation (P=0.003), greater estimated blood loss (P=0.001), and longer hospital stay (P<0.001) and were more inclined to develop postoperative complications (P=0.047), particularly anastomotic leak (P=0.021) and severe (Clavien–Dindo grade III/IV) complications (P=0.038). After multivariate analysis, previous intestinal resection (P=0.019), preoperative use of steroids (P=0.026), and ASA score of more than II (P<0.001) were determined to be the independent prognostic risk factors for postoperative complications. …”
