文摘BACKGROUND Colon polyps represent a significant clinical challenge in elderly patients.While endoscopic mucosal resection(EMR)and argon plasma coagulation(APC)are widely used,their comparative effectiveness in elderly populations remains unclear,particularly regarding postoperative recovery and complication profiles.AIM To compare the postoperative recovery,complications and efficacy of EMR and APC in elderly patients with colonic polyps.METHODS We retrospectively analyzed clinical data from 224 elderly patients with colon polyps treated at our center between January 2021 and July 2024.All patients were divided into the EMR group and APC group according to the surgical method they received.By comparing the operation time,intraoperative bleeding situation,hospital stays,postoperative inflammatory response index,complication rate and recurrence status of the two groups,the effect of the two surgical methods was comprehensively evaluated.RESULTS The APC group exhibited superior outcomes in terms of operative time(10.63 minutes vs 13.27 minutes,P<0.001),intraoperative bleeding situation(39.00%vs 52.42%,P=0.031),and length of hospital stay(1.63 days vs 3.87 days,P<0.001)compared to the EMR group.The one-time resection rate of the APC group(94.69%)was higher than that of the EMR group(89.14%)(P=0.026).The overall effective rates of the two groups were 94.35%and 92.00%,respectively.Postoperative procalcitonin and C-reactive protein levels were lower in the APC group than in the EMR group(P<0.001).The incidence of complications was comparable between the two groups(P=0.159).The recurrence rate was lower in the APC group(2.00%)than in the EMR group(8.06%)(P=0.045).CONCLUSION For elderly patients with colon polyps,APC showed certain advantages compared with EMR in promoting postoperative recovery,reducing the inflammatory response and the risk of complications.However,the study is limited by its single-center retrospective design and short follow-up period,and further multicenter prospective studies are needed to validate the findings.
文摘BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)is a common and frequently encountered malignancy in clinical practice.Patients who lack understanding of the disease and surgical treatment are prone to fear,depression,and other negative emotions,which further aggravate psychological stress.As such,less stimulating and minimally invasive surgical modalities,such as ultrasound-guided interventions,should be adopted to alleviate or eliminate negative perioperative psychological states,which can be evaluated using validated tools such as the Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAM-A)and Hamilton Depression Scale(HAM-D).AIM To investigate the impact of ultrasound-guided surgery on stress,complications,and recovery in patients with HCC and comorbid anxiety/depression.METHODS Ninety patients with primary small HCC and comorbid anxiety/depression were randomly divided into 2 groups according to treatment(n=45 each):Experimental(ultrasound-guided intervention);and control(conventional laparoscopic hepatectomy).The HAM-A and HAM-D were used to assess psychological states before and 1 week after surgery.C-reactive protein(CRP),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),and superoxide dismutase(SOD)levels,in addition to specific liver-function indicators,complication rates,and postoperative metrics were measured.Recurrence rates were monitored for 6 months.RESULTS There were no significant differences in preoperative HAM-A and HAM-D scores between the 2 groups(P>0.05);however,scores in the study group were significantly lower postoperatively(P<0.05).On postoperative day 1,there were no significant differences in serum levels of CRP,VEGF,or SOD between the groups(P>0.05),whereas the levels in the intervention group were significantly lower than those in the control group on days 3 and 7(P<0.05).The incidence of postoperative complications in the study group(6.66%)was significantly lower than that in the control group[17.78%(P<0.05)].The study group also had a significantly shorter time to first flatus,oral intake,and postoperative hospital stay(P<0.05).Postoperative serum alanine aminotransferase,aspartate aminotransferase,and total bilirubin levels decreased in both groups compared with preoperative levels,although with significantly lower values in the study group(P<0.05)but no differences preoperatively(P>0.05).There was no statistical difference in tumor recurrence rates between the 2 groups during the six-month follow-up(P>0.05).CONCLUSION Ultrasound-guided intervention for patients with primary small HCC and anxiety/depression effectively improves negative emotional states,reduce stress responses,decreases postoperative complications,promotes recovery,and enhances quality of life.
文摘BACKGROUND Early gastric cancer(EGC)or precancerous lesions(PCLs)are generally small tumors and carry a diminished chance of nodal infiltration.Thus far,very few studies have examined how endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD)affects postoperative recovery and complications in such patients.AIM To evaluate the influence of ESD on postoperative recovery and complications in patients with EGC or PCL.METHODS The study population included patients with EGC and PCL admitted to The First People’s Hospital of Fuyang District between December 2022 and December 2024,who were divided into the research(n=65)and control(n=55)groups if they underwent ESD and laparoscopic radical gastrectomy,respectively.Therapeutic outcomes(en bloc and curative resection rates),surgical parameters(incision length,intraoperative bleeding,and operative duration),postoperative recovery indices(time to first ambulation/flatus/first oral intake,and hospital stay duration),complications(infection,outflow obstruction,bleeding,and perforation),and tumor markers[carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA)and carbohydrate antigen(CA)125/19-9]were comparatively evaluated.RESULTS Compared with the control group,the research group achieved a significantly higher en bloc resection rate but a notably lower curative resection rate.Additionally,the research group demonstrated shorter incision lengths,reduced intraoperative bleeding,and shorter operative duration.Regarding postoperative recovery,the research group demonstrated earlier ambulation,faster bowel function restoration,quicker oral intake resumption,and shorter hospital stays.Furthermore,an evidently lower overall complication rate was recorded in the research group,as well as markedly reduced postoperative CEA,CA125,and CA19-9 concentrations.CONCLUSION When performed for EGC and PCLs,ESD demonstrates advantages such as higher en bloc resection(although lower curative resection rates),surgical trauma minimization,shortened operative duration,and faster recovery.Moreover,it is effective in reducing serum tumor marker levels while maintaining favorable safety.
文摘BACKGROUND Endoscopic cold snare resection(CSP)can enhance postoperative recovery and minimize bleeding risk in patients with 5-15 mm colorectal polyps.However,more detailed evaluations are required to assess their advantages over conventional methods.AIM To evaluate the effects of endoscopic CSP on postoperative recovery and bleeding risk in patients with 5-15 mm colorectal polyps.METHODS This randomized controlled study included 193 patients(mean age:57.91±5.41 years;97 men and 96 women)with 5-15 mm colorectal polyps treated at Dongyang People's Hospital between March and June 2023.The patients were randomly assigned to the experimental group(n=100),who underwent CSP,and the control group(n=93),who underwent conventional endoscopic mucosal resection(EMR).Operation time,hospital stay,dietary status,and bleeding rate within 3 days were compared.RESULTS The CSP group had significantly shorter operation times(15.02±2.44 minutes vs 18.78±5.48 minutes,P<0.001)and hospital stays(3.11±1.08 days vs 4.89±1.35 days,P<0.001)than the EMR group.The fasting rate on the day of surgery was also lower in the CSP group(P<0.05).The complete resection rates were similar between groups(98.00%vs 94.62%,P=0.210),and no perforations occurred in either group.The 3-day postoperative bleeding rate was slightly lower in the CSP group(2.00%)than in the EMR group(6.45%),although this difference was not statistically significant(P=0.234),indicating limited clinical relevance.CONCLUSION CSP was safe and efficient for removing 5-15 mm colorectal polyps,offering faster recovery and comparable safety to EMR.The procedural efficiency of CSP supports its broad clinical application.

文摘BACKGROUND Patients with gastrointestinal tumors often suffer from poor nutritional status during treatment.Surgery is the main treatment for these patients,but the long postoperative recovery period is often accompanied by digestive and absorption dysfunction,leading to further deterioration of the nutritional status.Early enteral nutrition support is hypothesized to be helpful in improving this situation,but the exact effects have yet to be studied in depth.AIM To observe the effect of early enteral nutritional support on postoperative recovery in patients with surgically treated gastrointestinal tract tumors,with the expectation that by improving the nutritional status of patients,the recovery process would be accelerated and the incidence of complications would be reduced,thus improving the quality of life.METHODS A retrospective analysis of 121 patients with gastrointestinal tract tumors treated in our hospital from January 2020 to January 2023 was performed.Fifty-three of these patients received complete parenteral nutrition support as the control group for this study.The other 68 patients received early enteral nutritional support as the observation group of this study.The clinical indicators comparing the two groups included time to fever,time to recovery of postoperative bowel function,time to postoperative exhaustion,and length of hospital stay.The changes in immune function and nutritional indexes in the two groups were compared.Furthermore,we utilized the SF-36 scale to compare the changes in the quality of life between the two groups of patients.Finally,the occurrence of postoperative complications between the two patient groups was also compared.RESULTS The postoperative fever time,postoperative bowel function recovery time,postoperative exhaustion time,and hospitalization time were all higher in the control group than in the observation group(P<0.05).The levels of CD3+,CD4+,immunoglobulin(Ig)A,IgM,and IgG in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group at 1 d and 7 d postoperatively,while CD8+was lower than in the control group(P<0.05).Total protein,albumin,prealbumin,and transferrin levels were significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group at 7 d postoperatively(P<0.05).The SF-36 scores of patients in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.0001).The overall incidence of adverse reactions after the intervention was significantly lower in the control group than in the observation group(P=0.021).CONCLUSION We found that patients with gastrointestinal tumors are nutritionally vulnerable,and early enteral nutrition support programs can improve the nutritional status of patients and speed up postoperative recovery.This program can not only improve the immune function of the patient and protect the intestinal function,but it can also help to improve the quality of life of the patient.However,this program will increase the incidence of complications in patients.Caution should be taken when adopting early enteral nutrition support measures for patients with gastric cancer.The patient's condition and physical condition should be comprehensively evaluated and closely monitored to prevent possible complications.
文摘<div style="text-align:justify;"> <strong>Objective:</strong> To study the application of specific nursing in perioperative patients of thoracic surgery and postoperative recovery and improvement of patients’ negative emotions. <strong>Patients and Methods:</strong> A total of 88 patients in the thoracic surgery operating room of our hospital were selected and divided into group A (specific nursing, n = 44) and group B (routine nursing, n = 44). The anxiety and depression status of the two groups were assessed by the Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and the Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS). The relevant respiratory parameters after surgery, including total lung capacity, maximum respiration flow-rate, tidal volume, and vital capacity were observed. The extubation time, ICU hospitalization time, and VAS scores of postoperative pain were compared, with a score of 10 being full. The higher the score, the higher the pain. The in-cidence of postoperative wound infection, pulmonary infection, respiratory tract infection and the satisfaction with the operation were compared. Sf-36 scale was used to score the physical function, life function, psychological function and quality of life of the patients in the two groups. <strong>Results:</strong> The surgical effect of group A was significantly higher than that of group B (all p < 0.05). The total lung capacity, maximum respiration flow-rate, tidal volume and vital capacity of group A were significantly higher than those of group B (all p < 0.05). The extubation time and hospitalization time of group A were significantly higher than those of group B (all p < 0.05). VAS score of group A was significantly lower than that of group B (all p < 0.05). The infection rate of group A was significantly lower than that in group B (all p < 0.05). <strong>Conclusion:</strong> Specific nursing has higher application value than routine nursing, which is worth further promotion in clinic. </div>
文摘BACKGROUND Conventional five-port laparoscopic surgery,the current standard treatment for colorectal carcinoma(CRC),has many disadvantages.AIM To assess the influence of reduced-port laparoscopic surgery(RPLS)on perioperative indicators,postoperative recovery,and serum inflammation indexes in patients with CRC.METHODS The study included 115 patients with CRC admitted between December 2019 and May 2023,52 of whom underwent conventional five-port laparoscopic surgery(control group)and 63 of whom underwent RPLS(research group).Comparative analyses were performed on the following dimensions:Perioperative indicators[operation time(OT),incision length,intraoperative blood loss(IBL),and rate of conversion to laparotomy],postoperative recovery(first postoperative exhaust,bowel movement and oral food intake,and bowel sound recovery time),serum inflammation indexes[high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),and interleukin-6(IL-6)],postoperative complications(anastomotic leakage,incisional infection,bleeding,ileus),and therapeutic efficacy.RESULTS The two groups had comparable OTs and IBL volumes.However,the research group had a smaller incision length;lower rates of conversion to laparotomy and postoperative total complication;and shorter time of first postoperative exhaust,bowel movement,oral food intake,and bowel sound recovery;all of which were significant.Furthermore,hs-CRP,IL-6,and TNF-αlevels in the research group were significantly lower than the baseline and those of the control group,and the total effective rate was higher.CONCLUSION RPLS exhibited significant therapeutic efficacy in CRC,resulting in a shorter incision length and a lower conversion rate to laparotomy,while also promoting postoperative recovery,effectively inhibiting the inflammatory response,and reducing the risk of postoperative complications.

文摘This editorial examines the emerging potential of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)in enhancing postoperative recovery following gastroenteroscopy,highlighted by a 2025 randomized controlled trial by Hong et al.The study,involving 120 patients,demonstrates that meridian flow injection(MFI)combined with transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation(TEAS)significantly improves gastrointestinal(GI)function,evidenced by a reduced time to first defecation(3.20±1.04 days vs 3.98±1.27 days,P<0.001),lowers stress biomarkers(e.g.,reduced cortisol and norepinephrine),and enhances clinical efficacy(93.33%vs 75.00%,P=0.006).Leveraging TCM’s five-element theory and Ziwu Liuzhu timing,the intervention targets key acupoints such as Zusanli(ST36)with a herbal paste comprising Qingpi,Houpu,and rhubarb,delivered transdermally to optimize bioavailability.This approach harmonizes ancient TCM principles with contemporary evidence-based practice,offering a holistic strategy to address postoperative nausea,delayed motility,and patient discomfort.Currently,integrative methods like MFI-TEAS are gaining traction,supported by recent meta-analyses that affirm TEAS’s efficacy in accelerating GI recovery across surgical contexts,including shortened times to first exhaust and defecation.This reflects a growing recognition of TCM’s role in perioperative care amidst rising global endoscopy demands.Looking forward,future research should prioritize multicenter,doubleblinded trials to enhance generalizability,adhere to standardized reporting frameworks such as CONSORT and STRICTA,and employ advanced tools like multiomics and functional magnetic resonance imaging to elucidate mechanistic pathways,including gut-brain axis modulation and microbiota-immune interactions.Such developments promise to refine these interventions,fostering a seamless integration of TCM with Western medicine and delivering tailored,patientcentered solutions to improve postoperative outcomes worldwide.
文摘Objective This study aimed to compare the postoperative analgesia and recovery of ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block combined with serratus anterior plane block(ESPB combined with SAPB)versus thoracic paravertebral block(PVB)after thoracoscopic surgery.Methods Ninety-two patients who underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery(VATS)were randomly divided into group S(n=46)and group P(n=46).After anesthesia induction,the same anesthesiologist performed ultrasound-guided ESPB at T5 and T7 levels combined with SAPB at the level of the fifth rib in the midaxillary line in group S and ultrasound-guided PVB at T5 and T7 levels in group P.Patients in both groups were given 40 mL of 0.4%ropivacaine.Eighty-six patients completed the study(group S,n=44;group P,n=42).The morphine consumption,visual analogue scale(VAS)scores at rest and coughing,and frequency of remedial analgesia were recorded at 1,2,4,8,and 24 h postoperatively.Pulmonary function parameters were recorded at 1,4,and 24 h postoperatively,and the quality of recovery(QoR)-15 score at 24 h postoperatively.The adverse effects,duration of chest tube drainage and length of stay were also recorded.Results The morphine consumption at postoperative 4 and 8 h and the incidence of ipsilateral shoulder pain(ISP)were significantly lower in group S than in group P.The QoR-15 questionnaire score at postoperative 24 h was significantly lower in group P than in group S(P<0.05).The morphine consumption was lower at 24 h postoperatively in group S than in group P,with no significant difference found yet.The morphine consumption at other observed times,VAS scores,pulmonary function parameters,frequency of remedial analgesia,duration of chest tube drainage,length of stay,and incidence of other adverse events were comparable between group S and group P.Conclusion Ultrasound-guided ESPB combined with SAPB is non-inferior to PVB in terms of morphine consumption at postoperative 24 h and postoperative recovery.But,this approach can significantly reduce morphine consumption in the early postoperative period(0–8 h)after thoracoscopy with lower incidence of ISP.It is a simpler and safer operation.
文摘Objective To evaluate the effects of ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane(TAP) block on postoperative analgesia and early recovery in patients undergoing retroperitoneoscopic urologic surgeries.Methods This was a randomized,controlled,double-blinded trial.Eligible patients scheduled for retroperitoneoscopic urologic surgeries were randomly assigned to two groups.Group TAP received ultrasound-guided TAP block with 0.5% ropivacaine 20 ml at 30 minutes before surgery,and Group C received TAP sham block with normal saline.All patients received retroperitoneoscopic urologic surgeries under general anesthesia.The primary outcome was the severity of pain after surgery.Secondary outcomes included opioids consumption,analgesics,postoperative nausea and vomiting,time to Foley catheter removal and to passage of flatus,length of post-anesthesia care unit stay and hospital stay.Results Eighty patients completed the study,forty cases in each group.Compared to the Group C,the Group TAP had lower visual analogue scale pain scores within two postoperative days(all P<0.05).They also had less consumption of intraoperative fentanyl(2.0±0.5 vs. 3.8±0.7 μg/kg,P<0.05),reduced incidence of postoperative rescue analgesic usage(12.5% vs. 45.0%,P<0.05),and lower incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting within postoperative 48 hours(12.5% vs. 25.0%,P<0.05) when compared to the Group C.In addition,Group TAP had a shortened post-anesthesia care unit stay(25±8 vs. 49±12 minutes,P<0.05),and a greater proportion of patients discharged within postoperative three days(57.5% vs. 35.0%,P<0.05).Conclusion Preoperative ultrasound-guided TAP block is an effective technique to improve postoperative analgesia and early recovery in patients undergoing retroperitoneoscopic urologic surgeries.
文摘To investigate the effect of Shenmai injection in promoting postoperative recovery of patients with breast cancer. Methods: Eighty postoperative patients of breast cancer were selected and divided into two groups, the treated group (40 cases) was given intravenous Shenmai injection for 7 days and compared with the control group (40 cases) in wound healing time, postoperative drainage volume, complication and blood picture, and the NK cell, T lymphocyte subsets (CD 3, CD 4, CD 8), were compared before and after treatment. Results: The wound healing time and postoperational complication in the treated group were less than those in the control group significantly. There was no difference between the two groups in WBC and platelet count, but the recovery of hemoglobin in the treated group was quicker than that in the control group significantly (P<0 05), as comparing with the control group, the NK cell, CD 4, CD 4/CD 8 ratio in the treated group were elevated faster than those in the control group significantly (P<0 05). Conclusion: Shenmai injection was beneficial to the recovery of postoperative patients of breast cancer, to reducing the occurrence of complication and was favorable to conduct postoperative chemotherapy smoothly.
文摘BACKGROUND Laparoscopic surgery has emerged as the preferred treatment for acute appendicitis,a common acute abdominal condition.Despite surgical advances,postoperative gastrointestinal dysfunction and delayed recovery continue to negatively impact rehabilitation outcomes and patient quality of life.Laser acupuncture represents a promising emerging complementary therapy with potential benefits for promoting functional recovery.AIM To evaluate the clinical efficacy of laser acupuncture in enhancing gastrointestinal function recovery following laparoscopic appendectomy and to investigate its potential applications in postoperative rehabilitation.METHODS This retrospective controlled clinical study selected 120 acute appendicitis patients who underwent laparoscopic appendectomy from January 2022 to December 2023 at a tertiary hospital.Patients were randomly divided into two groups:Routine treatment group(n=60)and laser acupuncture intervention group(n=60).There were no significant statistical differences in baseline characteristics(age,gender,body mass index,appendicitis severity)between the two groups.The routine treatment group received standard postoperative care,while the laser acupuncture intervention group received additional laser acupuncture treatment on top of standard care.Key observation indicators included time to first exhaust,time to first bowel movement,time to gastrointestinal function recovery,and postoperative complication rates.RESULTS Patients in the laser acupuncture intervention group showed significantly faster gastrointestinal function recovery compared to the routine treatment group.Specifically,time to first exhaust was significantly shortened(intervention group:12.5±2.3 hours vs control group:18.7±3.1 hours,P<0.05),time to first bowel movement was earlier(intervention group:36.4±4.6 hours vs control group:48.2±5.7 hours,P<0.05),postoperative complication rate was significantly reduced(intervention group:8.3%vs control group:20.0%,P<0.05),postoperative pain score was significantly lower(intervention group:3.2±1.1 vs control group:4.7±1.5,P<0.05),and intestinal motility recovery was faster and more effective.CONCLUSION Laser acupuncture,as an auxiliary treatment method,can significantly promote gastrointestinal function recovery in patients after laparoscopic appendectomy,reduce complications,and improve postoperative comfort.This technique has advantages such as minimal invasiveness,rapid recovery,and few side effects,making it worthy of further clinical promotion and application.
文摘This editorial assesses the prognostic value of preoperative inflammatory and nutritional biomarkers in patients undergoing surgical resection for pancreatic cancer.Lu et al evaluated the ability of seven biomarkers to predict postoperative recovery and long-term outcomes.These biomarkers were albumin-to-globulin ratio,prognostic nutritional index(PNI),systemic immune-inflammation index,neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio,platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio,nutritional risk index,and geriatric nutritional risk index.The PNI was found to be a strong predictor of both overall and recurrence-free survival,underscoring its clinical relevance in managing patients with pancreatic cancer.
文摘BACKGROUND This study seeks to systematically assess the effects of warm acupuncture combined with acupoint massage on the recovery of gastrointestinal function following gastric cancer surgery.AIM To evaluate the impact of warm acupuncture combined with acupoint massage on postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery after gastric cancer surgery,based on a systematic review and meta-analysis.METHODS A comprehensive search was conducted across multiple databases,including PubMed,Cochrane Library,EMBASE,Web of Science,CNKI,Wanfang,and VIP,for relevant studies published up to January 2025.Meta-analyses were carried out using RevMan 5.4,with results presented as standardized mean difference(SMD)or odds ratio with 95%confidence interval(CI).Study heterogeneity was evaluated using the I2 statistic,and sensitivity analyses were performed to assess the stability of the findings.RESULTS A total of 8 randomized controlled trials involving 694 patients were included.The meta-analysis showed that warm acupuncture combined with acupoint massage significantly improved postoperative gastrointestinal function by reducing the time to first flatus(SMD=-2.14,95%CI:-3.14 to-1.14,P<0.0001),time to first bowel movement(SMD=-2.43,95%CI:-3.52 to-1.34,P<0.0001),time to bowel sounds recovery(SMD=-3.15,95%CI:-4.50 to-1.80,P<0.00001),and time to initiate nasogastric or jejunal feeding(SMD=-1.31,95%CI:-2.44 to-0.18,P=0.02).CONCLUSION The combination of warm acupuncture and acupoint massage markedly enhances gastrointestinal recovery following surgery.

文摘BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer is a prevalent malignancy with suboptimal postoperative recovery outcomes.Enhancing recovery and prolonging disease-free survival remains a critical challenge.This study investigates factors influencing the efficacy of probiotics combined with enteral nutrition in postoperative patients with colorectal cancer.AIM To identify predictors of therapeutic efficacy for probiotics combined with enteral nutrition in postoperative patients with colorectal cancer.METHODS A retrospective study was conducted with 511 patients with colorectal cancer who underwent surgery and received probiotics and enteral nutrition from January 2022 to March 2025.Patients were categorized into the“good efficacy group”(n=279)and“poor efficacy group”(n=232)based on outcomes observed 3 months post-surgery.Variables assessed included gut microbiota composition,nutritional intake,immune and inflammatory markers,and demographic characteristics.RESULTS Patients with favorable outcomes were typically younger,had higher caloric,protein,and fiber intake,and displayed enhanced intestinal mucosal barrier function with elevated levels of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus.Immune markers such as immunoglobulin A,immunoglobulin M,immunoglobulin G,and CD4+/CD8+T-cell ratios were significantly higher in the good efficacy group.High numbers of Fusobacterium nucleatum and Bacteroides fragilis and levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-6 were associated with poor efficacy.Multivariate analysis identified age,tumor node metastasis stage,protein intake,and gut microbiota composition as significant predictors of therapeutic success.CONCLUSION The efficacy of combining probiotics with enteral nutrition in postoperative patients with colorectal cancer was influenced by age,nutritional intake,microbiota balance,immune status,and inflammatory markers.
