Splenectomy versus splenic preservation in total gastrectomy for gastric cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis comparing survival benefits and short-term complications
CONCLUSION: Despite the lack of significant differences in certain individual complications and postoperative mortality, the broader pattern of our data suggests that SP is associated with a greater overall frequency of postoperative complications, without providing additional survival benefits compared to splenic preservation. Thus, the routine implementation of SP is not advocated.PMID:38567398 | DOI:10.1080/00325481.2024.2333233 (Source: Postgraduate Medicine)

A machine learning stacking model accurately estimating gastric fluid volume in patients undergoing elective sedated gastrointestinal endoscopy
CONCLUSION: The stacking model and its web calculator can serve as practical tools for accurately estimating gastric fluid volume in patients undergoing elective sedated GIE. It is recommended that anesthesiologists measure D1 and D2 in the patient's RLD position.PMID:38517301 | DOI:10.1080/00325481.2024.2333720 (Source: Postgraduate Medicine)
