Abstract
More papers have discussed the importance of preoperative detection and eradication of Helicobacter pylori (HP) in patients before and after Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (MBS). This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the role of preoperative H. pylori eradication vs non-treatment in the development of post-op complications in the setting of bariatric and metabolic surgery. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of Helicobacter pylori (HP) on metabolic and bariatric surgical complications through a systematic review and meta-analysis. A systematic search on the influence of HP infection on postoperative complications in bariatric surgery was conducted. The methodological quality of the included studies was rated using the Newcastle-Ottawa Rating scale. In case of consistent reporting of the data, a meta-analysis was performed. A total of 19 studies containing 261,186 patients were included. The mean age of the patients was 41.88 ± 7.40 years with a mean BMI of 45.53 ± 3.16 kg/m2. The mean follow-up was 21.72 months (range: 1-96 months). Testing for HP infections was often done using an esophagogastroduodenoscopy in combination with biopsy (42%). A urea breath test (59%) was the most common tool to confirm eradication. To eradicate HP, 2 weeks of PPI with antibiotics, 1 week of PPI with antibiotics, and PPI alone without antibiotics were used in 18 (67%), 3 (11%), and 6 (22%) studies, respectively. The prevalence of complications among patients with positive/negative HP was not significantly different (P > 0.05). In HP patients without preoperative eradication, odds ratio of bleeding was 1.48 (95% CI 0.80-2.73), ulcer was 6.88 (95% CI 5.60-8.45), leakage was 1.73 (95% CI 0.81-3.68), stricture was 1.13 (95% CI 0.30-4.21), and abscesses was 3.01 (95% CI 0.85-10.65). Helicobacter pylori infection is associated with potential postoperative complications, and therefore, it needs adequate treatment.
更多的论文讨论了代谢和减肥手术(MBS)前后患者术前检测和根除幽门螺杆菌(HP)的重要性。本系统综述和荟萃分析旨在评估术前幽门螺杆菌根除与未治疗在减肥和代谢手术中术后并发症发生中的作用。本研究旨在通过系统回顾和荟萃分析来评估幽门螺杆菌(HP)对代谢和减肥手术并发症的影响。本文系统探讨了HP感染对减肥手术术后并发症的影响。采用纽卡斯尔-渥太华评定量表对纳入研究的方法学质量进行评定。如果数据报告一致,则进行荟萃分析。共纳入19项研究,共261186例患者。患者平均年龄为41.88±7.40岁,平均BMI为45.53±3.16 kg/m2。平均随访21.72个月(1 ~ 96个月)。HP感染检测通常采用食管胃十二指肠镜联合活检(42%)。尿素呼气试验(59%)是确认根除的最常见工具。为了根除HP,分别在18(67%)、3(11%)和6(22%)项研究中使用了2周PPI联合抗生素、1周PPI联合抗生素和单独PPI不使用抗生素。HP阳性/阴性患者并发症发生率差异无统计学意义(P < 0.05)。在术前未根除的HP患者中,出血的优势比为1.48 (95% CI 0.80-2.73),溃疡的优势比为6.88 (95% CI 5.60-8.45),渗漏的优势比为1.73 (95% CI 0.81-3.68),狭窄的优势比为1.13 (95% CI 0.30-4.21),脓肿的优势比为3.01 (95% CI 0.85-10.65)。幽门螺杆菌感染与潜在的术后并发症有关,因此需要适当的治疗。
期刊介绍:
Updates in Surgery (UPIS) has been founded in 2010 as the official journal of the Italian Society of Surgery. It’s an international, English-language, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the surgical sciences. Its main goal is to offer a valuable update on the most recent developments of those surgical techniques that are rapidly evolving, forcing the community of surgeons to a rigorous debate and a continuous refinement of standards of care. In this respect position papers on the mostly debated surgical approaches and accreditation criteria have been published and are welcome for the future.
Beside its focus on general surgery, the journal draws particular attention to cutting edge topics and emerging surgical fields that are publishing in monothematic issues guest edited by well-known experts.
Updates in Surgery has been considering various types of papers: editorials, comprehensive reviews, original studies and technical notes related to specific surgical procedures and techniques on liver, colorectal, gastric, pancreatic, robotic and bariatric surgery.
