Response rates were 100% for both Delphi rounds. Quality of evidence was evaluated high, moderate low and very low, for 15 (21%), 26 (36%), 29 (40%) and 2 items, respectively. Consensus was reached for 71/72(98.6%) items. Strong recommendations were defined for 37 items. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/sm-102.html No consensus could be reached regarding the preemptive use of fresh frozen plasma.
The present ERAS recommendations for CRS±HIPEC are based on a standardised expert consensus process providing clinicians with valuable guidance. There is an urgent need to produce high quality studies for CRS±HIPEC and to prospectively evaluate recommendations in clinical practice.

The real-world data on adjuvant imatinib therapy in high-risk primary GIST are scarce.
We have analysed the data of 107 consecutive patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) after resection treated with adjuvant imatinib (for planned 3 years with initial dose 400mg daily, started not later than 4 months after operation) in 6 oncological centres in 2013-2018. All patients were required to have high risk of recurrence (at least 50% according to NCCN/AFIP criteria), known mutational status to exclude PDGFRA D842V mutants and KIT/PDGFRA-wild type cases from therapy without any further selection. Median follow-up time was 27 months.
The most common primary localization of GIST was small bowel (63 patients; 59%), followed by the stomach (40 patients; 37%). The majority of GIST cases harboured exon 11 KIT mutations (88 cases, 82%), 11 cases had exon 9 KIT mutations (10%), 8 had other KIT/PDGFRA mutations potentially sensitive to imatinib. Forty patients (37%) finished 3-year adjuvant imatinib theraperrepresentation of exon 9 KIT mutants and ruptured tumors in a group of patients with disease relapse.Sentinel node procedures (SNP) are performed with the use of tracer-agents, mainly radio-colloid and/or blue dye. Fluorescent agents have emerged as a new tracer-agent to identify the SLN intra-operatively with near-infrared imaging. Our aim is to compare the detection rate of fluorescent agents to current "golden standards" (blue dye and/or radio-colloid) for the SNP by means of a systematic review and meta-analysis without any restrictions based on tumor type. A systematic search in PubMed, Embase and The Cochrane Library was performed. Articles that compared the detection rates of fluorescent agents with radio-colloid and/or blue dye were included. Meta-analyses were performed for breast, gynecological and dermatological cancer using a random effects model. In total 6195 articles were screened which resulted in a final inclusion of 55 articles. All studies used indocyanine green (ICG) as fluorescent agent. Meta-analyses comparing ICG with blue dye showed a significant and clinically relevant difference in detection rate in favor of ICG, for both breast, dermatological and gynecological cancer. Meta-analyses comparing ICG with radio-colloid did not show any significant differences, with the exception of ICG versus radio-colloid + blue dye for the bilateral SLN detection in gynecological cancer. Near-infrared fluorescence imaging using ICG provides a higher detection rate compared to blue dye for the SNP in a range of different tumor types. SLN detection rates of ICG are comparable to radio-colloid. Due to their complementary characteristics in terms of spatial resolution and transdermal sensitivity, we suggest to use a combination of both ICG and a radio-colloid.
Poor nutritional status leads to multiple adverse outcomes, but few studies have assessed its role as a risk factor for incident frailty and death in community-dwelling older adults. Hence, the aim of this paper is to assess the role of nutritional status using the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria in the risk of frailty and mortality in Spanish community-dwelling older adults.
We used data from two waves (waves 2 (2011-2013) and 3 (2015-2017)) from the Toledo Study of Healthy Ageing, which is an observational, prospective cohort (average follow-up=3.18 years) of 1660 older (≥65 years) adults living in the community. Nutritional status categories were defined according to the GLIM criteria, which uses a two-step approach. First, screening for malnutrition risk. Once positive, individuals were classified as malnourished according to some phenotypic (body mass index, grip strength and unintentional weight loss) and etiologic (disease burden/inflammation and reduced food intake or up period, whereas being malnourished predicts mortality. These findings highlight the importance of assessing the nutritional status of community-dwelling older adults to identify the ones at risk of developing frailty or death and inform targeted nutrition-focused interventions.
Nutritional status, assessed through GLIM, predicts in a dose-dependent manner the risk of frailty and death. Being at malnutrition risk predicts the risk of becoming frail at follow-up period, whereas being malnourished predicts mortality. These findings highlight the importance of assessing the nutritional status of community-dwelling older adults to identify the ones at risk of developing frailty or death and inform targeted nutrition-focused interventions.
Elderly cancer patients are at particularly high risk for malnutrition because both the disease and the old age threaten their nutritional status. The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) released new universal criteria for diagnosing and grading malnutrition, but the validation of these criteria in elderly cancer population is not well documented. Our objective was to investigate the application of the GLIM criteria in nutrition assessment and survival prediction in elderly cancer patients.
This retrospective cohort analysis was conducted on a primary cohort of 1192 cancer patients aged 65 years or older enrolled from a multi-institutional registry, and a validation cohort of 300 elderly cancer patients treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University. Patients considered at-risk for malnutrition based on the NRS-2002 were assessed using the GLIM criteria. The association between the nutritional status and patients' overall survival (OS) was then analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method and a Cox model.
