Abstract
BACKGROUND The open abdomen is an innovation that greatly improved surgical understanding of damage control, temporary abdominal closure, staged abdominal reconstruction, viscera and enteric fistula care, and abdominal wall reconstruction. This article provides an evidence-informed, expert, comprehensive narrative review of the open abdomen in trauma, acute care, and vascular and endovascular surgery. METHODS A group of 12 international trauma, acute care, and vascular and endovascular surgery experts were invited to review current literature and important concepts surrounding the open abdomen. RESULTS The open abdomen may be classified using validated systems developed by a working group in 2009 and modified by the World Society of the Abdominal Compartment Syndrome-The Abdominal Compartment Society in 2013. It may be indicated in major trauma, intra-abdominal sepsis, vascular surgical emergencies, and severe acute pancreatitis; to facilitate second look laparotomy or avoid or treat abdominal compartment syndrome; and when the abdominal wall cannot be safely closed. Temporary abdominal closure and staged abdominal reconstruction methods include a mesh/sheet, transabdominal wall dynamic fascial traction, negative pressure wound therapy, and hybrid negative pressure wound therapy and dynamic fascial traction. This last method likely has the highest primary fascial closure rates. Direct peritoneal resuscitation is currently an experimental strategy developed to improve primary fascial closure rates and reduce complications in those with an open abdomen. Primary fascial closure rates may be improved by early return to the operating room; limiting use of crystalloid fluids during the surgical interval; and preventing and/or treating intra-abdominal hypertension, enteric fistulae, and intra-abdominal collections after surgery. The majority of failures of primary fascial closure and enteroatmospheric fistula formation may be prevented using effective temporary abdominal closure techniques, providing appropriate resuscitation fluids and nutritional support, and closing the abdomen as early as possible. CONCLUSION Subsequent stages of the innovation of the open abdomen will likely involve the design and conduct of prospective studies to evaluate appropriate indications for its use and effectiveness and safety of the above components of open abdomen management.

Scand J Gastroenterol 2023; 58:1534-1541. [PMID: 37455363 DOI: 10.1080/00365521.2023.2235452] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2023] [Accepted: 07/05/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023]
Abstract
AIMS To determine time trends in the incidence and etiology of acute pancreatitis and identify predictors for in-hospital mortality. PATIENTS AND METHODS Retrospective study of 1722 patients with acute pancreatitis admitted to Akershus University Hospital between January 2000 and December 2017. Data were obtained from electronic patient files and computed tomography scans. We estimated a logistic regression model to assess differences in associations between patient characteristics and in-hospital mortality in two time periods, 2000-2009 (first period) and 2010-2018 (second period). RESULTS First attack of acute pancreatitis (FAAP) was identified in 1579 patients (91.7%). The incidence of FAAP increased from 20.1/100,000 during the first period to 27.7/100,000 in the second period (p = .011). Etiology showed no differences between the two time periods. Gallstone was the most frequent etiology (47.2%). In total, 187 patients (11.8%) had necrotizing pancreatitis; more in the second period compared to the first (14.2 vs. 7.7%; p < .001). The overall mortality rate was 3.9%. Mortality rates decreased for both inflammatory and necrotizing pancreatitis during the study period. Age and comorbidity according to Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) were predictors of in-hospital mortality (OR 1.07, 95% CI 0.07; 0.40 and 13.58, 95% CI 3.88; 47.52), as were alcohol and organ failure (OR 7.20, 95% CI 2.02; 25.67 and OR 34.15, 95% CI 8.94; 130.53, respectively). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of FAAP is increasing in southeast Norway. The etiology has remained unchanged over an 18-year period, with gallstones being the most frequent cause. The outcomes for both inflammatory and necrotic pancreatitis are improving.

Abstract
The medical disorders of alcoholism rank among the leading public health problems worldwide and the need for predictive and prognostic risk markers for assessing alcohol use disorders (AUD) has been widely acknowledged. Early-phase detection of problem drinking and associated tissue toxicity are important prerequisites for timely initiations of appropriate treatments and improving patient's committing to the objective of reducing drinking. Recent advances in clinical chemistry have provided novel approaches for a specific detection of heavy drinking through assays of unique ethanol metabolites, phosphatidylethanol (PEth) or ethyl glucuronide (EtG). Carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT) measurements can be used to indicate severe alcohol problems. Hazardous drinking frequently manifests as heavy episodic drinking or in combinations with other unfavorable lifestyle factors, such as smoking, physical inactivity, poor diet or adiposity, which aggravate the metabolic consequences of alcohol intake in a supra-additive manner. Such interactions are also reflected in multiple disease outcomes and distinct abnormalities in biomarkers of liver function, inflammation and oxidative stress. Use of predictive biomarkers either alone or as part of specifically designed biological algorithms helps to predict both hepatic and extrahepatic morbidity in individuals with such risk factors. Novel approaches for assessing progression of fibrosis, a major determinant of prognosis in AUD, have also been made available. Predictive algorithms based on the combined use of biomarkers and clinical observations may prove to have a major impact on clinical decisions to detect AUD in early pre-symptomatic stages, stratify patients according to their substantially different disease risks and predict individual responses to treatment.

Abstract
Background Compared to younger people, older people have a higher risk and poorer prognosis of acute pancreatitis, but the effect of gut microbiota on acute pancreatitis is still unknown. We aim to investigate the effect of aging gut microbiota on acute pancreatitis and explore the potential mechanism of this phenomenon. Methods Eighteen fecal samples from healthy adult participants, including nine older and nine younger adults were collected. C57BL/6 mice were treated with antibiotics for fecal microbiota transplantation from older and younger participants. Acute pancreatitis was induced by cerulein and lipopolysaccharide in these mice. The effect of the aged gut microbiota was further tested via antibiotic treatment before or after acute pancreatitis induction. Results The gut microbiota of older and younger adults differed greatly. Aged gut microbiota exacerbated acute pancreatitis during both the early and recovery stages. At the same time, the mRNA expression of multiple antimicrobial peptides in the pancreas and ileum declined in the older group. Antibiotic treatment before acute pancreatitis could remove the effect of aging gut microbiota, but antibiotic treatment after acute pancreatitis could not. Conclusion Aging can affect acute pancreatitis through gut microbiota which characterizes the deletion of multiple types of non-dominant species. This change in gut microbiota may potentially regulate antimicrobial peptides in the early and recovery stages. The level of antimicrobial peptides has negative correlations with a more severe phenotype.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the correlation of coagulation function with the severity and prognosis of acute pancreatitis (AP) and identify the laboratory markers for early prediction and dynamic monitoring of the prognosis of AP. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of patients with AP admitted less than 72 h after onset to our hospital from December 1, 2017 to November 30, 2018. The correlation of coagulation function-related markers at admission and their changes during hospitalization with the prognosis of the patients was analyzed. RESULTS We screened the data of a total of 1260 patients with AP against the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and eventually 175 patients were enrolled in this analysis, among whom 52 patients had severe AP (SAP) and 12 patients died. Logistic regression analysis identified vWF: Ag, PT, PC, AT Ⅲ and D-dimer markers at admission as independent risk factors for predicting SAP and death. Dynamic monitoring of the changes in coagulation function-related markers in the disease course had greater predictive value of the patients' prognosis, and the indicators including vWF: Agmax, PTmax, APTTmax, TTmax, FIBmin, D-dimermax, PLTmin, PCmin, PLGmin, AT Ⅲmin, and their variations were all independent risk factors for predicting SAP and death. ROC analysis suggested that dynamic monitoring of the changes in the indicators, especially those of △vWF: Ag, △PT, △APTT, △FIB, △TT, △D-dimer, △PLT, △PC, △AT Ⅲ, △PLG, could effectively predict SAP and death in these patients (with AUC range of 0.63-0.84). CONCLUSION Patients with AP have vascular endothelial injuries and coagulation disorders. The markers including vWF: Ag, PT, PC, AT Ⅲ and D-dimer at admission are independent risk factors for predicting SAP and death, and dynamic monitoring of the changes in vWF: Ag、PT、APTT、TT、FIB、D-dimer、PLT、PC、AT Ⅲ and PLG can further increase the predictive value.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the potential therapeutic effect of paeoniflorin on acute lung injury induced by severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and to initially explore the possible protective mechanisms of paeoniflorin. Method The SAP lung injury rat model was established by retrograde injection of 5% sodium taurocholate to the cholangiopancreatic duct. H&E staining was used to detect pathological changes in rat lung tissue. W/D ratio method, serum amylase (AMY), and lipase activity were used to assess the degree of lung injury in rats. Oxidation indicators such as LDH, MDA, and SOD in lung tissue were measured. Levels of inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-10 were measured in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). At the same time, Western blot was used to detect the expression of related proteins in the Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway. Results In SAP rats, paeoniflorin treatment could significantly alleviate lung injury conditions such as pulmonary edema and inflammatory cell infiltration in lung tissue and reduce serum amylase and lipase activities. Paeoniflorin can reduce the content of LDH and MDA in lung tissue and increase the content of SOD. In addition, ELISA results showed that paeoniflorin could inhibit the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in BALF and upregulate the levels of IL-10. Paeoniflorin could upregulate the expression of Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway proteins Cyt-Nrf2, HO-1, and NQO1 in lung tissue of SAP rats. Conclusion Paeoniflorin may improve acute lung injury in rats with severe pancreatitis by inhibiting inflammation and oxidative stress response. These effects may be related to activating the Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway.

The impact of fluid resuscitation via colon on patients with severe acute pancreatitis. Sci Rep 2021; 11:12488.

Abstract
Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is a life-threatening disease. Fluid Resuscitation Via Colon (FRVC) may be a complementary therapy for early controlled fluid resuscitation. But its clinical application has not been reported. This study aims to explore the impact of FRVC on SAP. All SAP patients with the first onset within 72 h admitted to the hospital were included from January 2014 to December 2018 through electronic databases of Ruijin hospital and were divided into FRVC group (n = 103) and non-FRVC group (n = 78). The clinical differences before and after the therapy between the two groups were analyzed. Of the 181 patients included in the analysis, the FRVC group received more fluid volume and reached the endpoint of blood volume expansion ahead of the non-FRVC group. After the early fluid resuscitation, the inflammation indicators in the FRVC group were lower. The rate of mechanical ventilation and the incidence of hypernatremia also decreased significantly. Using pure water for FRVC was more helpful to reduce hypernatremia. However, Kaplan–Meier 90-day survival between the two groups showed no difference. These results suggest that the combination of FRVC might benefit SAP patients in the early stage of fluid resuscitation, but there is no difference between the prognosis of SAP patients and that of conventional fluid resuscitation. Further prospective study is needed to evaluate the effect of FRVC on SAP patients.
