Yu M, Lu L, Wu R. Perihilar cholangiocarcinoma resection: Is it beneficial for survival in elderly patients? GASTROENTEROLOGIA Y HEPATOLOGIA 2024; 47:691-701. [PMID: 37806347 DOI: 10.1016/j.gastrohep.2023.10.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2023] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 10/03/2023] [Indexed: 10/10/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION As the population ages, surgeons are growing frequently faced with hard choices among a vast array of treatment options for the elderly. This study was to investigate safety and efficacy of resection in elderly patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (PHCC). PATIENTS AND METHODS Literature reading and meta-analysis unveiled that elderly PHCC patients held a higher risk of death within 90 days after hepatectomy relative to younger patients, but their 5-year overall survival and disease-free survival were comparable. Among PHCC patients who underwent hepatectomy, the proportion of elderly patients with tumor classification Bismuth I-II and tumor stage pStage 1-3 was significantly higher than that of younger patients. RESULTS Curative resection R0 was more common in elderly patients than younger patients, but the difference was not statistically significant. Because of more comorbidities and less physiological reserve of elderly patients, they seemed to suffer more postoperative complications. CONCLUSION Considering improved life expectancy, it is crucial to treat elderly PHCC patients appropriately and attempts should be made to radical surgery based on comorbidities and functional status.

Physical Rehabilitation Programs for Bedridden Patients with Prolonged Immobility: A Scoping Review. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:ijerph19116420. [PMID: 35682005 PMCID: PMC9180781 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph19116420] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2022] [Revised: 05/19/2022] [Accepted: 05/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022]
Abstract
Bedridden patients usually stay in bed for long periods, presenting several problems caused by immobility, leading to a long recovery process. Thus, identifying physical rehabilitation programs for bedridden patients with prolonged immobility requires urgent research. Therefore, this scoping review aimed to map existing physical rehabilitation programs for bedridden patients with prolonged immobility, the rehabilitation domains, the devices used, the parameters accessed, and the context in which these programs were performed. This scoping review, guided by the Joanna Briggs Institute’s (JBI) methodology and conducted in different databases (including grey literature), identified 475 articles, of which 27 were included in this review. The observed contexts included research institutes, hospitals, rehabilitation units, nursing homes, long-term units, and palliative care units. Most of the programs were directed to the musculoskeletal domain, predominantly toward the lower limbs. The devices used included lower limb mobilization, electrical stimulation, inclined planes, and cycle ergometers. Most of the evaluated parameters were musculoskeletal, cardiorespiratory, or vital signs. The variability of the programs, domains, devices and parameters found in this scoping review revealed no uniformity, a consequence of the personalization and individualization of care, which makes the development of a standard intervention program challenging.
