Abstract
The emergence of the gut microbiome as a complex ecosystem that plays a key role in human heath and disease has touched virtually every aspect of medical and surgical care. With the advent of next-generation technology to interrogate the microbiome at the level of its membership, community structure and production of metabolites, applying measures by which the gut microbiome can be manipulated to the advantage of both the patient and provider is now possible. Among the many proposed methods, the most practical and promising is dietary pre-habilitation of the gut microbiome prior to high-risk anastomotic surgery. In this review, we will outline the scientific rationale and molecular underpinning that support dietary pre-habilitation as a practical and deliverable method to prevent complications after high-risk anastomotic surgery.

Prealbumin as a nutrition status indicator may be associated with outcomes of geriatric hip fractures: a propensity score matching and 1-year follow-up study. Aging Clin Exp Res 2022; 34:3005-3015. [PMID: 36127624 DOI: 10.1007/s40520-022-02243-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2022] [Accepted: 08/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
AIM Nutrition status may affect bone metabolism and regeneration in the elderly. However, few studies reported a sensitive nutrition indicator or evaluation tool for geriatric hip fractures. This study aimed to explore if prealbumin (PAB), a critical nutrition-related protein, is related to the prognosis of hip fractures. METHODS Patients with hip fractures who met the inclusion criteria were included in our study. Geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) were calculated. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to reduce the influence of confounding factors and ROC curves were conducted to explore the optimal cutoff points of PAB and to compare the prognostic value between GNRI, PNI, and PAB. Then Cox and Logistics analyses were performed to identify the relation between PAB and outcomes of hip fractures. RESULTS Out of the 546 patients enrolled in this study, 91 patients died within one year. After a 1:1 PSM, the patients with less than 1-year survival had significantly lower PAB (p < 0.001) than those who were still alive at one year. ROC curves showed that the PAB may sensitively predict 6-month survival (AUROC: 0.695), 1-year survival (AUROC: 0.696), and 1-year-free walking ability (AUROC: 0.642). Logistics analysis showed that low PAB may be an independent risk factor for survival and 1-year-free walking ability. CONCLUSION Low levels of PAB may be associated with poor survival and walking abilities of older patients after surgery for hip fracture.
