Combined effect of frailty and sarcopenia on postoperative complications in older adults undergoing curative surgery for hepato‐biliary‐pancreatic cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
A multivariable logistic regression model was performed using covariates that were significant in the bivariable analyses, including bile duct cancer, longer operative times, and greater blood loss. Prefrail or frail status combined with sarcopenia remained significant in this model (OR 4.74; 95% CI, 1.10–20.29; p = 0.04).

Multi-Label Annotation of Chest Abdomen Pelvis Computed Tomography Text Reports Using Deep Learning [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Purpose: To develop high throughput multi-label annotators for body (chest, abdomen, and pelvis) Computed Tomography (CT) reports that can be applied across a variety of abnormalities, organs, and disease states. Approach: We used a dictionary approach to develop rule-based algorithms (RBA) for extraction of disease labels from radiology text reports.

A history of gastrectomy is a risk factor for choledocholithiasis in patients undergoing cholecystectomy: A single center retrospective study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This retrospective study suggests that gastrectomy is a risk factor for choledocholithiasis. Especially in terms of the differences in reconstruction methods, the median time from gastrectomy to development of choledocholithiasis was 5.5 years for Roux‐en‐Y, which was significantly faster than 20 years for Billroth I and 35 years for Billroth II ...
