Although parenteral nutrition (PN) has anabolic effect; however, lack of zinc supplement for a long period might result in zinc deficiency. The aim of the study is to calculate the incidence of zinc deficiency and the correlation to multiple nutritional parameters. Methods This is a retrospective analysis of patients who received PN and were under care of nutrition support service of Mackay Memorial Hospital from 1995 to 2020. Zinc serum level less than 800 μg/L were considered zinc deficiency. All patients had evaluation of nutrition status by assessing of albumin, total lymphocyte count (TLC), and midarm circumference (MAC). Results Data were analyzed by analysis of variance. A P value less than 0.05 was considered significant. A total of 3854 patients received PN during this period, 18 of them had zinc level less than 800 μg/L. In those 18 patients, 12 of them had clinical symptoms and signs of zinc deficiency. The average day of receiving PN for patients was 74.4 ± 62.5 (14–204) days. The average day of appearance of symptoms was 11 ± 12.3 (1–43) days. Eleven patients received blood or plasma transfusion during this period. It was found that serum zinc level did not correlate with serum albumin, TLC, and MAC. Conclusions Zinc deficiency could occur in patients with PN and adequate supply of calorie. It also occurs in patients with extra loss such as discharges from enterocutaneous fistula even in patients with supply of daily requirement of zinc. Zinc deficiency does not correlate with serum albumin, TLC, MAC, or age.","PeriodicalId":12390,"journal":{"name":"Formosan Journal of Surgery","volume":"56 1","pages":"54 - 58"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46861916","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Whether PH type influences risk stratification in cardiac surgery remains undetermined. We aimed to evaluate the incidence of perioperative (≤30 days) morbidity and mortality in different PH population. Methods This was a retrospective observational study. All patients who underwent right heart catheterization between August 2015 and July 2020 were divided into the noncapillary, precapillary, isolated postcapillary, and combined postcapillary and pre capillary PH groups based on their mean pulmonary arterial pressure, pulmonary artery wedge pressure, and diastolic pressure difference preoperatively. Results Of the 500 patients who underwent elective cardiac surgeries, 487 were analyzed. Overall, 236 patients (48.7%) had PH, and isolated postcapillary PH was the most common presentation. Mild PH proportion was highest in the precapillary PH type (70.8%), followed by isolated postcapillary PH (46.2%), and finally combined postcapillary and precapillary PH (10.7%). Patients with PH had a greater frequency of renal insufficiency and wound infection within 30 days postoperatively. Mean pulmonary arterial pressure >25 mm Hg after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) was a risk factor for short-term complications. New York Heart Association Functional Class ≥II, long CPB duration, and isolated postcapillary PH or combined postcapillary and precapillary PH type are independent risk factors for short-term morbidity and mortality after elective cardiac surgery. Conclusions Isolated postcapillary PH and combined postcapillary and precapillary PH patients had a higher complication rate 30 days postoperatively among elective cardiac surgery patients. After CPB, mean pulmonary arterial pressure >25 mm Hg was associated with greater complication frequency.","PeriodicalId":12390,"journal":{"name":"Formosan Journal of Surgery","volume":"56 1","pages":"47 - 53"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41676179","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods Between December 2007 and November 2016, neonates with blue abdomen referred for the suspicion of spontaneous intestinal perforation (SIP) were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical features and their prognosis were analyzed. Results During the study period, there were 10 neonates with blue abdomen. Of them, five neonates were proven as having SIP and the others were free of perforation. Enteral feeding was significantly associated with SIP (P = 0.038); however, gestational age, birth weight, gender, the timing of presentation, white blood cell count, platelets count, and the use of indomethacin as well as surfactant therapy were not significantly different between the two groups (P = 0.338, 0.610, 0.490, 0.326, 0.084, 0.741, 0.292, and 0.197, respectively). There was no statistically significant difference in survival between the two groups (P = 0.490). Conclusions Black-bluish discoloration of the abdominal wall may be a classical physical finding of SIP, but not be specific to SIP. The factor of enteral feeding might help to establish an appropriate diagnosis before invasive procedures. Because of high mortality, exploratory laparotomy should be avoided if there is no pneumoperitoneum.","PeriodicalId":12390,"journal":{"name":"Formosan Journal of Surgery","volume":"56 1","pages":"12 - 15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43654757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
