Abstract
BACKGROUND: As severe morbidity rarely is the focus in gallstone surgery, health-related quality of life has evolved as the main outcome measure of the management of patients with gallstone disease (GSD). The lack of universally accepted guidelines on treatment of GSD has also resulted in regional differences in the preoperative evaluation and management of patients with GSD.
AIM: The aim of this study was to compare quality-of-life (QoL) following gallstone surgery in cohorts from Kazakhstan and Sweden.
METHODS: A comparative study on QoL after cholecystectomy (CE) in two cohorts from Sweden and Kazakhstan using the gastrointestinal QoL index (GIQLI) questionnaire. QoL measures of 259 patients in Kazakhstan and 448 patients in Sweden were compared taking into account surgical approach, mode of admission, and indication for surgery. Patients in both cohorts were requested to fill in the GIQLI questionnaire after surgery. Similar routines were applied to ensure high coverage in both countries.
RESULTS: The mean overall GIQLI score was higher for patients undergoing CE in Sweden than those in Kazakhstan (p < 0.01). The same was seen when stratifying for open or laparoscopic surgery (both p < 0.05), absence of presence of acute cholecystitis (both p < 0.05), and emergency admission (p < 0.05), but not in case of planned admission (p = 0.54).
CONCLUSIONS: There were large differences in QoL, especially in the group having undergone surgery for pain attacks or chronic cholecystitis. These differences in may be explained by differences in attitudes to health status and treatment expectations. Standardized routines for evaluating the outcome after surgery are needed.

Abstract
Cholelithiasis with chronic cholecystitis is prevalent and threatens human health. Most cholecystitis caused by bacterial infection or biofilms is accompanied by gallstones in the clinic, making gallbladder removal the only effective solution. Here, we provide a strategy to eliminate gallstone biofilms and dissolve gallstones by oral administration of a supernatant derived from nanoscale iron sulfide (nFeS supernatant). First, by using gallstones obtained from the clinic, we simulated biofilm formation on gallstones and tested the antibacterial activity of a nFeS supernatant in vitro. We found that the supernatant kills bacteria with a 5-log reduction in viability and destroys the biofilm structure. Smashed gallstones coincubated with E. coli biofilms promote gallstone formation, while nFeS supernatant can inhibit this process. Second, by using a murine (C57BL/6) model of cholelithiasis and cholecystitis, we tested the antibacterial efficacy and therapeutic effects of nFeS supernatant on cholelithiasis in vivo. Animal experimental data show that oral administration of nFeS supernatant can reduce 60% of bacteria in the gallbladder and, remarkably, remove gallstones with 2 days of treatment compared with clinical drug combinations (chenodeoxycholid acid and ciprofloxacin). Third, by performing protein abundance analysis of L02 cells and mouse livers, we observed the changes in CYP7a1, HMGCR, and SCP2 expression, indicating that the nFeS supernatant can also regulate cholesterol metabolism to prevent gallstone formation. Finally, hematologic biochemistry analysis and high-throughput sequencing technology show that the nFeS supernatant possesses high biocompatibility. Therefore, our work demonstrates that the nFeS supernatant may be a potential regimen for the treatment of cholelithiasis and cholecystitis by oral administration.

Hepatobiliary Surg Nutr 2019; 8:228-245. [PMID: 31245403 PMCID: PMC6561890 DOI: 10.21037/hbsn.2019.03.16] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2018] [Accepted: 11/22/2018] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) provide a valuable means of measuring outcomes subjectively from a patient's perspective, facilitating the assessment of service quality across healthcare providers, and assisting patients and clinicians in shared decision making. The primary aim of this systematic review was to critically appraise all historic studies evaluating patient reported quality of life, in adult patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy for symptomatic gallstones. The secondary aim was to perform a quality assessment of cholecystectomy-specific PROM-validation studies. A literature review was performed in PubMed, Google ScholarTM, the Cochrane Library, Medline, CINAHL, EMBASE and PsychINFO databases up to September 2017. Study characteristics, PROM-specific details and a bias assessment were summarised for non-validation studies. A COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement INstruments (COSMIN) analysis was performed to assess the methodological quality of identified PROM-validation studies. Fifty one studies were found to evaluate health-related quality of life (HRQoL) after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Although 94.1% of these studies included PROMs as a primary outcome measure, <20% provided level 1 evidence through randomised controlled trials (RCTs). There was significant variation in the selection and reporting of PROMs, with no studies declaring patient involvement in PROM selection, and 88.2% of studies failing to document the management of missing data points, or non-returned surveys (33.3%). In the 6 PROM-validation studies identified, only 5 psychometric properties were evaluated, the findings of which were limited due to the small number of studies. This systematic review identifies a lack in consistency of study design and PRO reporting in clinical trials. Whilst an increasing number of studies are being performed to evaluate PROs, a lack of adherence to existing PRO administration and reporting guidelines is continuing to negatively affect study quality. We recommend that future clinical trials utilizing PROs should adhere to established comprehensive guidelines as described.
