RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) in adolescents has been shown to be safe and effective, but current practice patterns are variable and poorly understood. The aim of this study is to assess current MBS practice patterns among pediatric surgeons in the United States. METHODS: American Pediatric Surgical Association members were surveyed on current bariatric surgery practices. RESULTS: Four hundred and three (40%) surgeons out of a total of 1013 pediatric surgeons responded to the survey. Only 2 respondents had additional training in MBS (0.5%). One hundred thirty-two (32.6%) report that their practice participates in metabolic and bariatric surgery, with 123 (30.4%) having a specific partner specializing in MBS. Most respondents (92%) stated that they believe high volume is associated with better outcomes with regard to MBS. Only 17 (4.2%) surgeons performed a metabolic and bariatric surgery in the last year. All routinely perform sleeve gastrectomy as their primary procedure. Most (82%) perform procedures with an additional surgeon, either another pediatric surgeon (47%) or an adult bariatric surgeon (47%). All pediatric bariatric surgeons responded that they believe high volume led to better outcomes. Adolescent MBS programs most commonly included pediatric nutritionists (94%), pediatric psychologists (94%), clinical nurses (71%), clinical coordinators (59%), pediatric endocrinologists (59%), and exercise physiologists (52%). CONCLUSION: Only 17 (4.2%) respondents had performed a metabolic and bariatric surgery in the past year, and few of those had additional training in MBS. Future work is necessary to better understand optimal practice patterns for adolescent metabolic and bariatric surgery. TYPE OF STUDY: Review article. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The application of near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) imaging in surgery is growing. This study aimed to systematically review the literature to summarize the intraoperative uses of NIRS in pediatric surgery. METHODS: A PRISMA-compliant literature search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science from inception to February 2020. Title/abstract and then full-text screening were performed. The Oxford centre for Evidence Based Medicine tool (OCEBM) was used to evaluate the level of evidence of included studies. RESULTS: Reviewers identified 53 articles. Of which, 34 studies (64.2%) were case-series and 11 (20.8%) were case reports. Most of the studies (n = 45, 84.9%) were level 4 on the OCEBM tool. The most common uses of NIRS were to visualize the biliary tree and to identify primary and metastatic malignant tissues. Other applications include assessment of perfusion of tissues including bowel anastomoses, and lymphatic surgery. Several advantages of the introduction of NIRS in pediatric surgery exist including having the potential to reduce operative time and intra/post-operative complications. Moreover, NIRS helps in detecting malignant tissues that can be missed by conventional imaging. However, NIRS has important limitations such as difficulty in identification of the biliary tree in obese patients or inflamed gallbladder, detection of small deeply localized malignant tissues, as well as the high cost. CONCLUSIONS: NIRS is a promising modality that can be used intraoperatively to augment different pediatric surgical procedures. NIRS has important advantages and limitations compared to conventional surgery, however, more studies are required to evaluate its outcomes and cost-effectiveness. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Obesity in adolescent males is associated with the lowering of total and free testosterone concentrations. Weight loss may increase testosterone concentrations. DESIGN AND METHODS: We evaluated the changes in sex hormones following bariatric surgery in 34 males (age range: 14.6-19.8 years) with obesity. These participants were part of a prospective multicenter study, Teen-Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery. The participants were followed up for 5 years after surgery. Total testosterone, total estradiol, luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, sex hormone-binding globulin, C-reactive protein, insulin and glucose were measured at baseline, 6 months and annually thereafter. Free testosterone, free estradiol and HOMA2-IR were calculated. RESULTS: Study participants lost one-third of their body weight after bariatric surgery, with maximum weight loss achieved at 24 months for most participants. Free testosterone increased from 0.17 (95% CI: 0.13 to 0.20) at baseline to 0.34 (95% CI: 0.30 to 0.38) and 0.27 nmol/L (95% CI: 0.23 to 0.32) at 2 and 5 years (P < 0.001 for both), respectively. Total testosterone increased from 6.7 (95% CI: 4.7 to 8.8) at baseline to 17.6 (95% CI: 15.3 to 19.9) and 13.8 (95% CI: 11.0 to 16.5) nmol/L at 2 and 5 years (P < 0.001), respectively. Prior to surgery, 73% of the participants had subnormal free testosterone (<0.23 nmol/L). After 2 and 5 years, only 20 and 33%, respectively, had subnormal free testosterone concentrations. Weight regain was related to a fall in free testosterone concentrations. CONCLUSIONS: Bariatric surgery led to a robust increase in testosterone concentrations in adolescent males with severe obesity. Participants who regained weight had a decline in their testosterone concentrations.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine which initial surgical treatment results in the lowest rate of death or neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI) in premature infants with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) or isolated intestinal perforation (IP). SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: The impact of initial laparotomy versus peritoneal drainage for NEC or IP on the rate of death or NDI in extremely low birth weight infants is unknown. METHODS: We conducted the largest feasible randomized trial in 20 US centers, comparing initial laparotomy versus peritoneal drainage. The primary outcome was a composite of death or NDI at 18 to 22 months corrected age, analyzed using prespecified frequentist and Bayesian approaches. RESULTS: Of 992 eligible infants, 310 were randomized and 96% had primary outcome assessed. Death or NDI occurred in 69% of infants in the laparotomy group versus 70% with drainage [adjusted relative risk (aRR) 1.0; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.87-1.14]. A preplanned analysis identified an interaction between preoperative diagnosis and treatment group (P = 0.03). With a preoperative diagnosis of NEC, death or NDI occurred in 69% after laparotomy versus 85% with drainage (aRR 0.81; 95% CI: 0.64-1.04). The Bayesian posterior probability that laparotomy was beneficial (risk difference <0) for a preoperative diagnosis of NEC was 97%. For preoperative diagnosis of IP, death or NDI occurred in 69% after laparotomy versus 63% with drainage (aRR, 1.11; 95% CI: 0.95-1.31); Bayesian probability of benefit with laparotomy = 18%. CONCLUSIONS: There was no overall difference in death or NDI rates at 18 to 22 months corrected age between initial laparotomy versus drainage. However, the preoperative diagnosis of NEC or IP modified the impact of initial treatment.

RESUMO

Over the past decade, outcomes data have demonstrated the benefit of bariatric surgery in achieving both sustained weight loss and reversal of co-morbidities. Comparing these data to contemporary known risks of adolescent bariatric surgery informs the patients and providers considering bariatric procedures and provides insight into potential ways to reduce and manage complications. The goal of this article is to review the common surgical and postoperative complications following bariatric procedures and discuss approaches to improve their safety. A systematic review identifying bariatric surgery complications in adolescents was conducted. The review focused on the data relevant to adolescent bariatric surgery. However, when necessary, adult studies were used to address the gaps in available pediatric information. The data pertaining to the intraoperative, short term, and long term surgically related and nutritional related complications show that complication are declining with increasing experience. Specific recommendations and strategies to avoid major complications of bariatric surgery in adolescents are offered.

RESUMO

Background: Common bile duct (CBD) injury is one of the most serious complications of laparoscopic cholecystectomy and carries an incidence of 0.3%-0.7%. Recently indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescent cholangiography (FC) has been used as an adjunct to identify the biliary tract during adult laparoscopic cholecystectomy, allowing intraoperative identification of biliary anatomy. The objective of this article is to show its successful use in pediatric laparoscopic cholecystectomies. Method: From July 1, 2017, to November 30, 2018, surgeons at John R. Oishei Children's Hospital and Women and Children's Hospital of Buffalo have been utilizing ICG-FC as an adjunct in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Thirty-one patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy had 1 mL of dilute ICG (2.5 mg) injected intravenously in the operating room (OR) before trocar placement. Demographics, intraoperative details, and subjective surgeon data were recorded for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy cases involving ICG. We hypothesize that use of ICG-FC in the pediatric and adolescent patient population is a safe, reliable, and reproducible adjunct for identification of the biliary tree. Secondary outcomes were to identify rate of biliary anatomy identification, utilization ease, and operative times while using ICG technology in pediatric patients. Results: ICG-FC was used in 31 pediatric laparoscopic cholecystectomies performed by 5 surgeons at our institution. Ages ranged from 6 to 18 years. In all cases, the cystic duct-CBD junction was visualized while performing dissection of the triangle of Calot. No intraoperative complications occurred. Conclusions: ICG-FC provides a noninvasive real-time visualization of the extrahepatic biliary tree in children and adolescents. We demonstrate that ICG-FC can successfully be used as an adjunct in pediatric patients and has the potential to facilitate with the dissection and minimize risk of bile duct injuries during pediatric laparoscopic cholecystectomies.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: This prospective cohort analysis describes changes in weight, cardiometabolic health, and weight-related quality of life (WRQOL) following adolescent LAGB. METHODS: Teen-Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery (Teen-LABS) collected demographic, anthropometric, micronutrient, cardiometabolic risk, and WRQOL data for 242 adolescents. Data through 5 years were analyzed for 14 participants who underwent LAGB with 2 patients lost to follow-up. RESULTS: Participants (mean age 18.2 ± 0.4 years) were mostly female (86%) and white (71%) with a median body mass index (BMI) of 48.7 kg/m2 (45.5-54.1). Preoperatively, 100%(13/13), 62%(8/13), 57%(8/14), and 7%(1/14) had elevated high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), dyslipidemia, elevated blood pressure (EBP), and type 2 diabetes (T2D), respectively. At 5 years, mean BMI decreased by 3.3% (51.0 vs. 49.3 kg/m2, p = 0.6), 43%(6/14) had BMI values exceeding baseline and 21% (3/14) underwent band removal. Postoperative prevalence of hs-CRP, dyslipidemia, EBP, and T2D was 45% (4/11), 36% (5/11), 33% (4/12), and 0% (0/11), respectively. CONCLUSION: Adolescents undergoing LAGB experienced modest initial weight loss and improvements in cardiovascular risk factors with later weight regain and frequent need for band removal. Despite the small sample size, this prospective study highlights long-term outcomes with high rates of participant retention over time. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: NCT00465829.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The Revised Trauma Score is the standard physiologic injury severity indicator used in trauma research and quality control. Shock index, peripheral oxygen saturation, and temperature have emerged as strong predictors for mortality and morbidity. We hypothesized that replacing systolic blood pressure and respiratory rate with age-adjusted shock index and peripheral oxygen saturation and adding temperature would generate a more accurate model, valid across all ages. METHODS: This is a retrospective database analysis using children and adults from the National Trauma Data Bank for years 2011 to 2015. Glasgow Coma Scale, systolic blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, peripheral oxygen saturation, temperature, and shock index (calculated as heart rate/systolic blood pressure) were used as predictor variables, alone or in combination, in logistic models with survival as primary outcome. Bayesian information criterion and area under the receiver operator characteristic curve were used to compare models' performances. To adjust for age, models tested on the entire population (children and adults) used Z-scores derived on age-based homogenous intervals rather than the raw value. RESULTS: The analysis included 283,724 pediatric and 1,555,478 adult patients. Overall mortality was 0.7% and 2.7%, respectively. The Glasgow Coma Scale + shock index + peripheral oxygen saturation + temperature model outperformed the revised trauma score in both adults (Bayesian information criterion 296,345.94 vs 298,494.72; area under the receiver operator characteristic curve 0.831 vs 0.809, P < .001) and children (Bayesian information criterion 12,251.48 vs 12,283.48; area under the receiver operator characteristic curve 0.974 vs 0.968, P = .05) cohorts. On the merged (children and adults) cohort the Glasgow Coma Scale + Z-scores derived on age-based homogenous intervals + peripheral oxygen saturation + temperature model outperformed the Revised Trauma Score (Bayesian information criterion 313,814.78 vs 317,781.31; area under the receiver operator characteristic curve 0.852 vs 0.809, P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: Replacing systolic blood pressure and respiratory rate with shock index and peripheral oxygen saturation in the Revised Trauma Score model and adding temperature generated a more accurate model in both children and adults. Adjusting shock index for age rendered the model accurate across all ages. Calibration on population-derived nomograms of vital signs would further increase the model's accuracy and precision.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Nonoperative management (NOM) is commonly utilized in hemodynamically stable children with blunt splenic injuries (BSI). Guidelines published by the American Pediatric Surgical Association over the past 15 years support this approach. We sought to determine the rates and outcomes of NOM in pediatric BSI and compare trends between pediatric (PTC), mixed (MTC) and adult trauma centers (ATC). METHODS: This was a retrospective database analysis of the NTDB data from 2011 to 2015 including pediatric patients with BSI, as described by ICD-9-CM Codes 865.00-865.09. Patients with head injuries with AIS > 2, multiple intraabdominal injuries, and transfers-out were excluded. According to ACS and/or state designation, trauma facilities were defined as PTC (level I/II pediatric only), MTC (level I/II adult and pediatric) and ATC (level I/II adult only). OM group was defined as presence of procedure codes reflecting exploratory laparotomy/laparoscopy and/or any splenic procedures. NOM group consisted of patients who were observed, transfused or had transarterial embolization (TAE). Variables analyzed were age, ISS, spleen AIS, amount and type of blood products transfused, and intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital (H) length of stay (LOS). RESULTS: 5323 children met the inclusion criteria. 11.4% received care at PTC (NOM, 97%), 40.7% at MTC (NOM, 89.9%) and 47.8% at ATC (NOM, 83.8%) (P < 0.001). In NOM group, PTC patients had the highest spleen AIS (3.46 ±â€¯0.95, P < 0.001). TAE was predominantly used at MTC and ATC (P = 0.001). MTC and ATC were more likely to transfuse than PTC (P = 0.002). MTC and ATC OM rates were lower in children aged ≤12 than in children aged >12 (P < 0.001). Splenectomy rate was 1.5% at PTC, 8.4% at MTC, and 14.4% at ATC (P < 0.001). In OM group, PTC patients had a higher ISS (P = 0.018) and spleen AIS (P = 0.048) than both MTC and ATC. The proportion of patients treated by NOM at ATC increased during the 5-year period studied (P = 0.015). Treatment at MTC or ATC increased the risk for OM by 3.89 and 5.36 times respectively (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: PTCs still outperform ATCs in NOM success rates despite higher ISS and splenic injury grades. From 2011 to 2015, ATC OM rates dropped from 17% to 12.4% suggesting increased adoption of the APSA guidelines. Further educational initiatives may help augment this trend. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: II TYPE OF STUDY: Retrospective.

RESUMO

The adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) receptor, known as the melanocortin-2 receptor (MC2R), plays a key role in regulating adrenocortical function. ACTH receptor is a subtype of the melanocortin receptor family which is a member of the G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily. ACTH receptor has unique characteristics among MCRs. α-MSH, ß-MSH, γ-MSH and ACTH are agonists for MCRs but only ACTH is the agonist for ACTH receptor. In addition, the melanocortin receptor accessory protein (MRAP) is required for ACTH receptor expression at cell surface and function. In this review, we summarized the information available on the relationship between ACTH and ACTH receptor and provide the latest understanding of the molecular basis of the ACTH receptor responsible for ligand selectivity and function.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Little is known about prevalence and risk factors for nutritional deficiencies in adolescents after metabolic bariatric surgery. We performed a 5-year prospective cohort study of these. METHODS: Adolescents who had Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB, n = 161) or vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG, n = 67) were enrolled at 5 tertiary-care centers from March 2007 through February 2012. The final analysis cohort included 226 participants (161 who had RYGB and 65 who had VSG). We measured serum levels of ferritin; red blood cell folate; vitamins A, D, B1, B12; and parathyroid hormone at baseline and annually for 5 years. General linear mixed models were used to examine changes over time and identify factors associated with nutritional deficiencies. RESULTS: The participants were 75% female and 72% white, with a mean age of 16.5 ± 1.6 years and mean body mass index of 52.7 ± 9.4 kg/m2 at surgery. Mean body mass index decreased 23% at 5 years, and did not differ significantly between procedures. After RYGB, but not VSG, serum concentrations of vitamin B12 significantly decreased whereas serum levels of transferrin and parathyroid hormone increased. Ferritin levels decreased significantly after both procedures. Hypo-ferritinemia was observed in 2.5% of patients before RYGB and 71% at 5 y after RYGB (P < .0001), and 11% of patients before VSG and 45% 5 y after VSG (P = .002). No significant changes in serum levels of folate or vitamins A, B1, or D were found between baseline and 5 y after either procedure. By 5 y, 59% of RYGB and 27% of VSG recipients had 2 or more nutritional deficiencies. Risk factors associated with specific deficiencies included surgery type, female sex, black race, supplementation intake, weight regain, and for females, pregnancy. CONCLUSIONS: In a prospective study of adolescents who underwent RYGB or VSG, we observed nutritional deficiencies by 5 y after the procedures-particularly in iron and B12 after RYGB. Ongoing nutrient monitoring and supplementation are recommended for all patients, but surgery type, supplementation intake, sex, and race might affect risk.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the longitudinal effects of metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) on the prevalence of musculoskeletal and lower extremity (LE) pain, physical function, and health-related quality of life. METHODS: The Teen Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery study (NCT00474318) prospectively collected data on 242 adolescents undergoing MBS at 5 centers over a 3-year follow-up. Joint pain and physical function outcomes were assessed by using the Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index, Impact of Weight on Quality of Life - Kids, and the Short Form 36 Health Survey. Adolescents with Blount disease (n = 9) were excluded. RESULTS: Prevalent musculoskeletal and LE pain were reduced by 40% within 12 months and persisted over 3 years. Adjusted models revealed a 6% lower odds of having musculoskeletal pain (odds ratio = 0.94, 95% confidence interval: 0.92-0.99) and a 10% lower odds of having LE pain (odds ratio = 0.90, 95% confidence interval: 0.86-0.95) per 10% reduction of BMI. The prevalence of poor physical function (Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index score >0) declined from 49% to <20% at 6 months (P < .05), Physical comfort and the physical component scores, measured by the Impact of Weight on Quality of Life - Kids and the Short Form 36 Health Survey, improved at 6 months postsurgery and beyond (P < .01). Poor physical function predicted persistent joint pain after MBS. CONCLUSIONS: Joint pain, impaired physical function, and impaired health-related quality of life significantly improve after MBS. These benefits in patient-reported outcomes support the use of MBS in adolescents with severe obesity and musculoskeletal pain and suggest that MBS in adolescence may reverse and reduce multiple risk factors for future joint disease.

RESUMO

Purpose: Fundoplication is one of the most common procedures performed by pediatric surgeons, frequently for gastroesophageal reflux with feeding intolerance. No consensus exists in its management, with multiple institutions opting for medical therapy over surgical intervention. Methods: A case-based survey was administered at a national pediatric surgery conference. Clinical vignettes described former-premature infants with reflux and feeding intolerance with or without failure to thrive (FTT), neurological impairment, complex cardiopathy, and respiratory symptoms. Odds ratios (ORs) for fundoplication were calculated from participants' responses. Results: Surgeons elected to perform fundoplication in 14%-74% of cases. The OR for performing fundoplication in the presence of FTT was 1.84 (confidence interval [CI] 1.34-2.54, P = .0002) overall, achieving significance in subgroup analysis for cardiopathy (OR 3.56, CI 1.88-6.71, P = .0001) and neurological impairment (OR 1.79, CI 1.04-3.07, P = .04), but not in the absence of these comorbidities (OR 1.05, CI 0.61-1.83, P = .86). The OR for fundoplication in the presence of neurological impairment was 1.97 (CI 1.34-2.90, P = .0005) and that for cardiopathy was 1.70 (CI 1.20-2.40, P = .003), independent of FTT status. In subgroup analysis, the greatest predictors for fundoplication were neurological impairment with FTT (OR 2.63, CI 1.55-4.48, P = .0004) and complex cardiopathy with FTT and cough/syncope (OR 7.14, CI 4.05-12.58, P < .0001). Presence of cardiopathy without FTT had the overall lowest odds of fundoplication (OR 0.40, CI 0.21-0.78, P = .006). Conclusion: Surgeons tend to perform fundoplication in the presence of FTT and other comorbidities, particularly when these are concurrent.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Efficacy of multi-disciplinary weight management (MDM) in youth has not been compared to their routine care. OBJECTIVES: To compare body mass index z-score (zBMI) and blood test (lab) changes (Δ) in youth before and after MDM and to correlate bio-impedance analysis (BIA) and lab measurements. METHODS: We compared zBMI Δ (from referring providers' records), within 3 months prior to MDM, to monthly zBMI Δ after MDM, in a retrospective cohort of youth at a tertiary MDM center. BIA and lab measurements after 6 months, MDM were compared to baseline. RESULTS: We reviewed 316 records (12.9 ± 3.5 years, 49% males, 104.8 ± 35.1 kgs). The pre-MDM zBMI Δ (0.02 ± 0.1) was reversed after MDM (-0.03 ± 0.09, visit 2, P < 0.001). The zBMI Δ progressed on follow-up (-0.14 ± 0.05, visit 6). Baseline BIA components correlated with Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), triglycerides, and systolic blood pressure. HbA1c, HOMA-IR, and liver functions significantly improved on follow-up. MDM participation showed progressive attrition and dropped to 11.6% at visit 6. CONCLUSION: MDM in youth resulted in zBMI and lab improvements compared to their pre-MDM measurements. BIA provided additional outcome measures that correlated with metabolic markers. MDM follow-up was limited by the progressive participant drop-out. Behavioral economic strategies are needed to improve adherence.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Bariatric surgery results in weight loss and health improvements in adults and adolescents. However, whether outcomes differ according to the age of the patient at the time of surgery is unclear. METHODS: We evaluated the health effects of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in a cohort of adolescents (161 patients enrolled from 2006 through 2012) and a cohort of adults (396 patients enrolled from 2006 through 2009). The two cohorts were participants in two related but independent studies. Linear mixed and Poisson mixed models were used to compare outcomes with regard to weight and coexisting conditions between the cohorts 5 years after surgery. The rates of death and subsequent abdominal operations and selected micronutrient levels (up to 2 years after surgery) were also compared between the cohorts. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in percent weight change between adolescents (-26%; 95% confidence interval [CI], -29 to -23) and adults (-29%; 95% CI, -31 to -27) 5 years after surgery (P = 0.08). After surgery, adolescents were significantly more likely than adults to have remission of type 2 diabetes (86% vs. 53%; risk ratio, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.03 to 1.57) and of hypertension (68% vs. 41%; risk ratio, 1.51; 95% CI, 1.21 to 1.88). Three adolescents (1.9%) and seven adults (1.8%) died in the 5 years after surgery. The rate of abdominal reoperations was significantly higher among adolescents than among adults (19 vs. 10 reoperations per 500 person-years, P = 0.003). More adolescents than adults had low ferritin levels (72 of 132 patients [48%] vs. 54 of 179 patients [29%], P = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS: Adolescents and adults who underwent gastric bypass had marked weight loss that was similar in magnitude 5 years after surgery. Adolescents had remission of diabetes and hypertension more often than adults.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To examine postoperative length of stay (LOS), hospital readmission, and 30-day complications in pediatric patients undergoing laparoscopic ileocecal resection in a contemporary cohort. METHODS: Retrospective review of the American College of Surgeons National Surgery Quality Improvement Project, Pediatric (NSQIP-P) 2012-2016 participant user files for patients <19 years old who underwent laparoscopic ileocecal resection. Mean postoperative LOS, hospital readmission and both wound-specific and composite complications were calculated and compared by year of operation. RESULTS: 348 patients were identified (range, 46-96 per year); 55.2-69.8% of these were admitted the day of operation, with a nonsignificant increase in frequency over the study period. Postoperative LOS ranged from 5.4 ±â€¯2.9 days to 7.3 ±â€¯9.1 days (p = 0.24). In subset analysis of only those patients admitted on the day of operation, postoperative LOS remained relatively long, ranging from 5.0 ±â€¯3.0 days to 5.7 ±â€¯4.0 days (p = 0.89). 30-day hospital readmission proportions rose insignificantly, from 6.9% in 2012 to 15.5% in 2016 (p = 0.41). Wound complication rates (including superficial, deep, and deep organ space infections, as well as wound dehiscence) ranged from 0.0% to 8.6%, but did not vary in a statistically significant manner. Nonwound complication rates were vanishingly small. CONCLUSIONS: Postoperative LOS in pediatric patients undergoing laparoscopic ileocecal resection in a select group of patients cared for in hospitals participating in NSQIP-P has not decreased in the past 5 years despite emerging evidence of the safety and relevance of enhanced recovery after surgery programs. Opportunities for shortening LOS without compromising patient safety may still exist. LEVEL-OF-EVIDENCE: III Retrospective comparative study.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: This paper intends to evaluate the association between Down Syndrome (DS) and postoperative medical and surgical complications and inpatient postoperative mortality in pediatric patients undergoing intestinal operations. METHODS: The 2012 Kids' Inpatient Database was queried to compare short-term postoperative medical and surgical complications and in-patient mortality among patients with DS undergoing intestinal operations to a cohort without DS using inverse probability weighting. Subset analysis was performed for patients undergoing intestinal operations exclusive of gastrostomy placement. Adverse treatment effects were calculated for the outcomes of interest. RESULTS: Of 17,026 pediatric patients undergoing intestinal operations, 444 had DS. In unadjusted analysis, medical complications (urinary tract infection, deep venous thrombosis, sepsis, pneumonia) occurred in 7.9% of patients with DS, compared to 14.1% of those without (p < 0.001). Surgical complications (wound disruption, hemorrhage, superficial or deep wound infection) occurred in 3.5% of patients with DS, compared to 4.6% of those without (p = 0.34), and in-patient mortality occurred in 0.3% of patients with DS, compared to 2.7% of those without (p = 0.009). Adverse treatment effects (ATE) calculated after inverse probability weighting demonstrated no difference for medical or surgical complications but a significantly decreased mortality with DS. CONCLUSIONS: Contrary to common perception and data extrapolated from the adult literature, pediatric patients with DS have neither higher medical nor surgical complication rates after intestinal operations. Similar to patients undergoing congenital heart surgery, pediatric patients with DS have a lower postoperative inpatient mortality after these general operations compared to those without DS. Mechanisms influencing risks in DS patient remain unknown. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, retrospective comparative study.

RESUMO

The adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) receptor, known as the melanocortin-2 receptor (MC2R), plays a key role in regulating adrenocortical function. MC2R is a subtype of the melanocortin receptor family and ACTH is only agonist for MC2R. Our previous result indicates that ACTH1-17 is the minimal peptide required for MC2R activation but DPhe7-ACTH1-17 has no activity at MC2R. In this study, we examined the molecular basis of the MC2R responsible for ligand selectivity using ACTH analogues and MC2R mutagenesis. Our results indicate that substitution of the 3TM of the MC2R with the corresponding region of the MC3R switches DPhe-ACTH1-17 from no activity to agonist. Further experiment indicates that substitution of the amino acid residue leucine to isoleucine in 112 (L112I) of the 3TM of the MC2R changes both DPhe-ACTH1-17 and ACTH1-15 from no activity to agonists. Surprisingly, mutation L112I switches α-MSH from no activity to agonist, suggesting that this residue plays a key role at MC2R for ligand ACTH or α-MSH selectivity.
