BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 6, Page 1015-1021, December 2020., 2020 This meta‐analysis investigated the influence of selective decontamination of the digestive tract (SDD) on outcomes after upper gastrointestinal surgery. SDD led to a reduction in anastomotic leakage (odds ratio (OR) 0·39, 95 per cent c.i. 0·19 to 0·80; P = 0·010) and pneumonia (OR 0·42, 0·23 to 0·78; P = 0·006).

Obese patients and robotic colorectal surgery: systematic review and meta‐analysis
BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 6, Page 1042-1053, December 2020., 2020 Obesity is a major health problem that doubles the chance of colorectal cancer. The benefits of robotic surgery for colorectal operations in obese patients versus non‐obese patients are unknown. This meta‐analysis and systematic review highlights that robotic surgery in obese patients is similar and feasible compared with that in non‐obese patients ...

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 6, Page 1022-1041, December 2020., 2020 This systematic review and meta‐analysis suggests that multimodal and nutrition‐alone prehabilitation interventions may reduce postoperative complications and length of hospital stay. More high‐quality research is needed specifically on prehabilitation for older patients. Use multimodal prehabilitation to reduce morbidity Background Prehabilitation has

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), Volume 107, Issue 12, Page 1595-1604, November 2020., 2020 The LaCeS feasibility trial has demonstrated that it is possible to evaluate laparoscopic surgery in the emergency colorectal setting within the context of an RCT. It has also shown that it is possible to recruit to a surgical trial in the emergency setting, with good compliance to trial procedures and processes, and overall acceptability by patients ...

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), Volume 107, Issue 12, Page 1648-1658, November 2020., 2020 This study demonstrates that anastomotic leakage leads to prolonged critical care and in‐hospital stay, and is associated with compromised long‐term overall survival. Future research should aim at developing mechanisms and interventions to reduce the risk of anastomotic leaks. Leaks impair outcomes Background The impact of anastomotic leak (AL) on long‐

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 737-747, October 2020., 2020 Postoperative infective complications have significant negative effects on oncological outcomes in colorectal cancer. Anastomotic leakage has a negative effect on every measured outcome. New registries should include oncological outcomes and complications to facilitate future research and optimize outcomes.

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 943-953, October 2020., 2020 In a multicentre study, outcome of surgery for total colonic aganglionosis was evaluated in 116 patients. In long‐term follow‐up, patients with a J pouch reconstruction reported better faecal continence and those with a Duhamel reconstruction reported fewer episodes of enterocolitis. Nutritional support was needed extensively in all groups with various
