Preoperative Total Iron‐Binding Capacity Is a Novel Surrogate Marker of Short‐ and Long‐Term Outcomes After Liver Resection for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
HCC patients with low preoperative TIBC levels experienced significantly more frequent post‐hepatectomy complications. Furthermore, these patients were significantly correlated with worse survival. Preoperative serum TIBC levels may be a novel surrogate marker of postoperative complications and long‐term survival after hepatectomy.

Relationship Between the Product of Pre‐Treatment Neutrophil and Monocyte Counts and Clinical Outcomes in Rectal Cancer With Suspected Lateral Lymph Node Metastasis

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim A novel systemic inflammatory response marker, the neutrophil × monocyte value (NM value), has been identified as a negative predictive factor for responses to chemoradiotherapy in rectal cancer. However, the clinical implications of the NM value remain unknown.

Diagnostic Accuracy of Size‐Based Preoperative CT Assessment for Predicting Lymph Node Metastasis in Colon Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Preoperative CT based on lymph node size shows moderate accuracy for detecting nodal metastasis in colon cancer. In this meta‐analysis of 29 studies (5,634 patients), pooled sensitivity and specificity were 0.69 and 0.66. Size‐based CT alone has limited value for clinical decision‐making.

Can Machine Learning Reduce Unnecessary Surgeries? A Retrospective Analysis Using Threshold Optimization to Prevent Negative Appendectomies in Adults

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Threshold‐optimized machine learning models using routine clinical and laboratory data in 623 adults undergoing appendectomy. Logistic regression (AUC = 0.765) and random forest (AUC = 0.785) were the best‐performing models for appendicitis detection and complicated appendicitis prediction, respectively.
