Abstract
BACKGROUND Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) programs have been widely adopted in bariatric surgery. However, not all patients are successfully managed in the ERAS setting and there is currently little way of predicting the patients who will deviate from the program. Early identification of these patients could allow for more tailored protocols to be implemented preoperatively to address the issues, thereby improving patient outcomes. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to elucidate the factors which preclude discharge by comparing patients who were successfully discharged by the end of the first postoperative day (POD 0/1) to those who stayed longer, including revisional surgery in this analysis. SETTING A tertiary, high-volume Bariatric Centre, United Kingdom. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed of all patients undergoing bariatric surgery in a single centre in 1 year. Multivariate analyses compared patient and operative variables between patients who were discharged on POD 0/1 and those who stayed longer. RESULTS A total of 288 bariatric operations were performed: 78% of operations performed were laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass; 22% laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Of these cases, 13% were revisional operations. Four patients returned to theatre on the index admission. 81% of patients were discharged by POD 0/1. A re-presentation within 30 days was seen in 6% of patients. There was no significant difference in length of stay for the type of operation performed (P = .86). Patients who had a revisional procedure were not more likely to stay longer. Length of stay was also independent of age, BMI, and comorbidities. Caucasian patients were more likely to be discharged on POD 0/1 than those of other ethnicities (90% versus 78%; P = .02). Operations performed by trainee surgeons, under consultant supervision, were significantly more likely to be discharged on POD 0/1 (P = .03). However, a logistic regression analysis was unable to predict patients who had a prolonged stay. CONCLUSIONS Patient length of stay is independent of BMI, operation, and comorbidities and these factors do not need special consideration in ERAS pathways. Patients undergoing revisional procedures can be managed in the same way as those having primary procedures, with a routine POD 0/1 discharge. However, the impact of individual patient factors, and their interaction, is complex and cannot predict overstay.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Emergency general surgery (EGS) is a major part of the provision of healthcare, and patients undergoing EGS are at elevated risk of morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to determine factors contributing to patients losing their independence and being discharged to residential and nursing homes having previously lived in their own residences. METHODS Our local data uploaded to the National Emergency Laparotomy Audit (NELA) (2014-2022) were analyzed. This national database encompasses all major EGS cases undertaken in the United Kingdom. The variables considered were patient demographics, American Society of Anesthesiologists score, admission and discharge dates, presenting pathology, operation type, and discharge destination. Comparative analyses segmented patients based on postdischarge EGS destinations. Multivariable logistic regression identified factors linked to residential/nursing home placement after discharge. Significance was set at P < .05. RESULTS Data from all patients in the NELA database (n = 1611) were analyzed. Approximately 1 in 10 patients older than 70 years never returned home. Patients requiring additional support were on average 8.6 years older (P = .008). At older than 80 years, the need for extra social support increased substantially with each increasing year in age, and those older than 85 years were more than twice as likely to require extra support than 80-year-olds (P < .001). Patients who died were 11.4 years older than those discharged without additional support (P < .001). CONCLUSION A significant proportion of patients, particularly the elderly, do not return to their usual place of residence and require a higher level of care postemergency surgery. These important social factors need to be considered before operating given that they may have significant quality of life and economic implications.

Abstract
Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is crucial for significant weight reduction and treating obesity-related issues. However, the impact of gastrojejunostomy (GJ) anastomosis diameter on weight loss remains unclear. We investigate this influence on post-RYGB weight loss outcomes. A systematic search was conducted. Six studies met the inclusion criteria, showing varied GJ diameters and follow-up durations (1-5 years). Smaller GJ diameters generally correlated with greater short-to-medium-term weight loss, with a threshold beyond which complications like stenosis increased. Studies had moderate-to-low bias risk, emphasizing the need for precise GJ area quantification post-operation. This review highlights a negative association between smaller GJ diameters and post-RYGB weight loss, advocating for standardized measurement techniques. Future research should explore intra-operative and AI-driven methods for optimizing GJ diameter determination.

Abstract
The aim of this meta-analysis was to compare the effects of LRYGB and LSG on dyslipidemia. Studies comparing the effects of LRYGB and LSG on dyslipidemia with follow-up of 12 months or more were included. Twenty-four studies comprising seven RCTs and 17 comparative observational studies were included. Meta-analysis of RCTs (n=487) showed that improvement/resolution of dyslipidemia was better after LRYGB (68.5%, n=161/235) compared to LSG (48.4%, n=122/252). Patients undergoing LRYGB were more than twice as likely to experience improvement/resolution in dyslipidemia compared to those undergoing LSG (OR 2.28, 95% CI 1.21-4.29, p=0.010). Both LRGYB and LSG appears effective in improving dyslipidemia at >12 months after surgery; however, this improvement is more than twice higher after LRYGB compared to LSG.

Abstract
Obesity has reached pandemic levels globally. Surgical management of obesity aims to establish metabolic control, weight loss and resolution of multiple health conditions and to improve quality of life. Here, we examine the role of surgery in the management of obesity within the context of a multidisciplinary team involving a variety of healthcare professionals. We highlight the importance of patient selection, perioperative care, the various types of bariatric surgery currently available as well as emerging procedures. In addition to clarifying the different types of procedure, we also examine the potential complications and issues of weight regain and failure to lose weight. Ultimately, bariatric surgery remains comparatively safe and with generally excellent results in terms of control of existing obesity-related conditions; with the ever-increasing number of patients living with obesity, the scope of bariatric surgery is thus likely to increase.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Bariatric surgery is becoming more prevalent worldwide due to increasing rates of obesity. British patients can access bariatric surgical services through established NHS services, or privately via British hospitals or abroad. Post-operatively, patients might require urgent surgical admission for analgesia, nutritional evaluation and even emergency surgery. Few publications have addressed the rates of late endoscopic or surgical re-intervention in British bariatric patients. This study investigated the burden of emergency bariatric-related surgery at an established high volume bariatric centre.
Methods
All bariatric-related procedures were selected from a prospectively maintained emergency surgery database. Patients who underwent unplanned, endoscopic or surgical procedures between September 2018 and September 2021 were included. Patients who had bariatric surgery at our institution and returned to theatre within their inpatient stay were excluded.
Primary outcomes were the location of the index procedure (local, other institutions within the UK, or abroad), type of the index bariatric procedure, length of stay (LOS), admission to intensive care, and mortality.
Results
During the study period, 87 patients underwent 102procedures. Index procedures were roux-en-Y gastric bypass 32 (37%), gastric banding 28 (32%), balloon insertion 12 (14%), sleeve gastrectomy 7 (8%), one-anastomosis gastric bypass 4 (5%) and band-to-sleeve gastrectomy revision 3 (3%). 34 (39%) patients had their initial procedure at our unit, 36 (41%) at another British centre and 17 (20%) abroad. The commonest index procedure to require emergency reintervention of those who had surgery at our hospital was the roux-en-Ygastric bypass (26%). Amongst those who had surgery at another UK hospital, it was the gastric band (28%), and intragastric balloons (6%) in the abroad group.
The most common emergency procedures performed for patients from our centre were OGD 11 (11%) and redo jejuno-jejunostomy 7 (7%). Patients from other UK centres required removal of gastric bands 25 (25%) and removal of intragastric balloons 4 (4%). Patients who underwent surgery abroad required OGD 5 (5%), removal of gastric balloons 5 (5%) or gastric bandremoval 4 (4%).
Median length of stay was 4 days (IQR 3.9–12.7). There were 9 (9%) admissions to ITU. There were two mortalities (2%), one patient from our hospital and onepatient from another British centre.
Conclusions
Our centre experiences a high volume of bariatric surgical emergencies that are promptly managed surgically and endoscopically with increased demand from patients who underwent bariatric surgery abroad. More than a third of patients are from other British centres reflecting the importance of established regional networks for the specialised care of these patients, while a fifth underwent surgery abroad. Further work should involve exploring factors affecting patients decision to seek private bariatric surgery, within the UK or abroad, and a consideration of the cost-burden to the NHS.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Internationally, day case Bariatric surgery has been shown to be safe, feasible and economically beneficial. However, it has not been widely adopted in the UK. It requires careful patient selection and a mature enhanced recovery programme. We report on the outcomes and lessons learned during our 2.5-year experience of day case laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomies (LSG) and Roux-en-y gastric bypass (RYGB) operations.
Methods
A retrospective analysis was performed of all patients who were selected as candidates for day case Bariatric surgery in a single-centre since October 2019. Patients were considered eligible if they had a BMI <60, lived within 30 minutes of the hospital, were having primary surgery with no additional procedure and were not on CPAP. All patients received a nurse-led telephone assessment on day 1. Rates of successful discharge, patient demographics, readmission and outcomes were analysed.
Results
Thirty-nine patients were identified as suitable candidates for day case operations: 24 (62%) RYGB, 15 (38%) LSG. The mean BMI was 46.5; 85% female. The main reason for not being considered was the patient living >30 minutes away. Overall, 18 (13 RYGB, 5 LSG; 46.2%) were successfully discharged on the day of surgery. Fifteen (38.5%) were discharged on the first post-operative day and 6 (15.4%) stayed two or more days. The commonest reasons for failed discharge were nausea/vomiting 6 (15.4%) and logistical issues e.g. operation in the afternoon 6 (15.4%). There was one readmission within 30 days (sealed leak from the gastro-jejunal anastomosis) but no returns to theatre.
Conclusions
We have successfully performed day case Bariatric surgery in our centre. However, it is a logistical challenge and to date has only been carried out successfully on a small number of patients. The main challenge being the vast catchment area for our tertiary centre. Further work is needed to better define the parameters for patient eligibility in order to safely offer this to more patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Morbid obesity in end stage renal disease (ESRD) is a barrier to kidney transplantation due to potential suboptimal post-transplant outcomes. Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for morbid obesity and has been shown to improve transplant eligibility through weight loss. There is no national UK guidance with regards to the role of bariatric surgery in patients requiring a kidney transplant. We present a decade of experience from a large NHS tertiary referral bariatric centre of performing bariatric surgery for weight loss in a cohort of high BMI ESRD patients.
Methods
A retrospective review was conducted of all patients undergoing bariatric surgery between 2007-2017. All patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) at the time of bariatric surgery were identified. Patient records for those with CKD stage 4 and Stage 5 (or ESRD) were reviewed and data extracted for analysis. A systematic review was also conducted of reported experiences of bariatric surgery in CKD patients as a bridge to kidney transplantation.
Results
Of 3119 patients operated on in the identified period 22 were identified as having CKD at the time of surgery. Sleeve gastrectomy was the most commonly performed procedure. There was no recorded post-operative complications or 30-day mortalities. Median LOS was 4 days (range:2-6), pre-operative BMI 45 (Range:37-69), 12m post-op excess weight loss 17.3±14.4%, final EWL 22.3±14.8% at 32 months follow-up (Range: 6-52). 57% were subsequently transplant wait listed, 28% proceeded to transplantation 18.5months after listing (Range:7-30months). Systematic review of 15 studies suggests bariatric surgery in these patients is safe and facilitates 1/4 of patients being listed and transplanted.
Conclusions
Experience from a large UK NHS bariatric centre shows weight-loss surgery in high BMI patients with CKD4/5 is safe, with minimal peri-operative morbidity and mortality. 1 in 2 patients proceeded to being listed for transplantation, and 1 in 3 progressed to transplantation. We should consider formalising the role of bariatric surgery in the pre-listing workup of high BMI ESRD patients in the UK to give all patients equal chances for transplantation.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim
Elective Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery (BMS) was halted in the UK during the first wave of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Obesity is a predictor of poor outcome in those infected with this virus. This study reports our experience resuming elective weight loss surgery safely amidst the pandemic.
Method
Guidance from national bodies (BOMSS/NICE) were reviewed and a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) was drafted to accommodate local considerations. Data were prospectively collected on patients undergoing BMS following commencement of elective surgery after the first national lockdown.
Results
A total of 50 patients underwent BMS at our institution within six weeks of resuming the services. The median age was 41 years old and BMI was 43.8(IQR 40.0-48.8 kg/m2). Equal number of patients underwent laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (SG) and Roux en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB). Of these, 9 patients (18%) had revisional surgery and 48 patients (96%) were discharged within 24 hours of their surgery. The rate of readmission within thirty days of surgery was 6% (n = 3) and 1 patient returned to theatre with an obstruction proximal to the jejuno-jenunal anastomosis. None of the patients exhibited symptoms or tested positive for the COVID-19 virus.
Conclusions
With appropriate precautions and protocols, it is feasible and safe to resume BMS, with no increased risk to bariatric patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. This is particularly encouraging for other units in UK to offer BMS after the current lockdown.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, numerous bariatric surgical units globally have halted weight loss surgery. Obesity itself has been shown to be a predictor of poor outcome in people infected with the virus. The aim of this study was to report our experience as a high-volume bariatric institution resuming elective weight loss surgery safely amidst emergency admissions of COVID-19-positive patients. METHODS A standard operating procedure based on national guidance and altered to accommodate local considerations was initiated across the hospital. Data were collected prospectively for 50 consecutive patients undergoing bariatric surgery following recommencement of elective surgery after the first national lockdown in the UK. RESULTS Between 28 June and 5 August 2020, a total of 50 patients underwent bariatric surgery of whom 94% were female. Median age was 41 years and median body mass index was 43.8 (interquartile range 40.0-48.8)kg/m2. Half of the patients (n = 25/50) underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and half underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Of these 50 patients, 9 (18%) had revisional bariatric surgery. Overall median length of hospital stay was 1 day, with 96% of the study population being discharged within 24h of surgery. The overall rate of readmission was 6% and one patient (2%) returned to theatre with an obstruction proximal to jejuno-jejunal anastomosis. None of the patients exhibited symptoms or tested positive for COVID-19. CONCLUSION With appropriately implemented measures and precautions, resumption of bariatric surgery during the COVID-19 pandemic appears feasible and safe with no increased risk to patients.

Abstract
SARS-CoV-2 is a virus that is the cause of a serious life-threatening disease known as COVID-19. It was first noted to have occurred in Wuhan, China in November 2019 and the WHO reported the first case on December 31, 2019. The outbreak was declared a global pandemic on March 11, 2020 and by May 30, 2020, a total of 5 899 866 positive cases were registered including 364 891 deaths. SARS-CoV-2 primarily targets the lung and enters the body through ACE2 receptors. Typical symptoms of COVID-19 include fever, cough, shortness of breath and fatigue, yet some atypical symptoms like loss of smell and taste have also been described. 20% require hospital admission due to severe disease, a third of whom need intensive support. Treatment is primarily supportive, however, prognosis is dismal in those who need invasive ventilation. Trials are ongoing to discover effective vaccines and drugs to combat the disease. Preventive strategies aim at reducing the transmission of disease by contact tracing, washing of hands, use of face masks and government-led lockdown of unnecessary activities to reduce the risk of transmission.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is associated with a twofold risk of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and thrice the risk of Barrett's esophagus (BE). Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) leads to weight loss and improvement of GERD in population with obesity, but its effect on BE is less clear. METHODS Bibliographic databases were searched systematically for relevant articles till January 31, 2019. Studies evaluating the effect of RYGB on BE with preoperative and postoperative endoscopy and biopsy were included. Study quality was assessed using the Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies (MINORS) tool. Meta-analysis was conducted using Mantel-Haenszel, random effects model and presented as risk difference (RD) or odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals. RESULTS Eight studies with 10,779 patients undergoing RYGB reported on 117 patients with BE with follow-up of > 1 year. Significant regression of BE after RYGB was observed (RD - 0.56.95% c.i. - 0.69 to - 0.43; P < 0.001). Subgroup analysis showed regression of both short-segment BE [ssBE] (RD - 0.51.95% c.i. - 0.68 to - 0.33; P < 0.001) and long-segment BE [lsBE] (RD - 0.46.95% c.i. - 0.71 to - 0.21; P < 0.001). RYGB also caused improvement in GERD in patients of BE (RD - 0.93, 95% c.i. - 1.04 to - 0.81; P < 0.001). RYGB was strongly associated with regression of BE compared with progression (OR 31.2.95% c.i. 11.37 to 85.63; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS RYGB leads to significant improvement of BE at > 1 year after surgery in terms of regression and resolution of the associated GERD. Both ssBE and lsBE improve after RYGB significantly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity leads to impairment of physical activity as measured by an inability to perform activities of daily living. Literature on the effect of bariatric surgery on physical activity is conflicting. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to perform a meta-analysis of the effect of bariatric surgery on physical activity from studies employing objective measurement and self-reporting of physical activity before and after bariatric surgery. METHODS Bibliographic databases were searched systematically for relevant literature until December 31, 2018. Studies employing objective and self-reported measurement of physical activity were included. Study quality was assessed using Risk of Bias in Nonrandomized Studies - of Interventions tool. Meta-analysis was performed using random effects model and presented as standardized mean difference (SMD) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS Twenty studies identified 5886 patients suitable for the analysis. Physical activity showed significant improvement at 0-6 months (SMD: .50; 95% CI: .25-.76; P = .0001), >6-12 months (SMD: .58; 95% CI: .26-.91; P = .0004), and >12-36 months (SMD: .82; 95% CI: .27-1.36; P = .004) after bariatric surgery. Self-reported assessment after bariatric surgery showed significant improvement at 0-6 months (SMD: .65; 95% CI: .29-1.01; P = .0004), >6 to 12 months (SMD: .53; 95% CI: .18-.88; P = .003), and >12-36 months (SMD: .51; 95% CI: .46-.55; P < .00001). Objective assessment after bariatric surgery did not show improvement at 0-6 months (SMD: .31; 95%CI:-.05-.66; P = .09), but showed significant improvement at >6-12 months (SMD: .85; 95% CI:-.07-1.62; P = .03), and >12-36 months (SMD: 1.99; 95% CI: 1.13-2.86; P < .00001) after bariatric surgery. CONCLUSIONS Bariatric surgery improves physical activity significantly in a population with obesity up to 3 years after surgery. Objective measurement of physical activity does not show significant improvement within 6 months of bariatric surgery but begins to improve at >6 months. Self-reported measurement of physical activity begins to show improvement within 6 months of a bariatric procedure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity leads to an impairment of physical function that limits the ability to perform basic physical activities affecting quality of life. Literature on the effect of bariatric surgery on physical function is confounding and generally of low quality. METHODS A comprehensive search was undertaken using MEDLINE, Scopus (including Embase), CENTRAL, PubMed, SPORTDiscus, Scirus and OpenGrey for published research and non-published studies to 31 March 2017. Studies employing objective measurement and self-reporting of physical function before and after bariatric surgery were included. The magnitude of experimental effect was calculated in terms of the standardized mean difference (MD), and confidence intervals were set at 95 per cent to reflect a significance level of 0·05. RESULTS Thirty studies including 1779 patients met the inclusion criteria. Physical function improved after bariatric surgery at 0-6 months (MD 0·90, 95 per cent c.i. 0·60 to 1·21; P < 0·001), more than 6 to 12 months (MD 1·06, 0·76 to 1·35; P < 0·001) and more than 12 to 36 months (MD 1·30, 1·07 to 1·52; P < 0·001). Objective assessment of physical function after bariatric surgery showed improvement at 0-6 months (MD 0·94, 0·57 to 1·32; P < 0·001), more than 6 to 12 months (MD 0·77, 0·15 to 1·40; P = 0·02) and more than 12 to 36 months (MD 1·04, 0·40 to 1·68; P = 0·001). Self-reported assessment of physical function showed similar improvements at 0-6 months (MD 0·80, 0·12 to 1·47; P = 0·02), more than 6 to 12 months (MD 1·42, 1·23 to 1·60; P < 0·001) and more than 12 to 36 months (MD 1·41, 1·20 to 1·61; P < 0·001) after a bariatric procedure. CONCLUSION Bariatric surgery improves physical function significantly within 6 months of the procedure and this effect persists over time to 36 months after surgery, whether measured objectively or by self-reporting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Omega-3 fatty acids (FA) can ameliorate the hyper-inflammatory response that occurs in conditions such as severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and this may improve clinical outcome. We tested the hypothesis that parenteral omega-3 FA from a lipid emulsion that includes fish oil could be beneficial in patients with predicted SAP by reducing C-reactive protein (CRP) concentration (primary outcome), and modulating the inflammatory response and improving clinical outcome (secondary outcomes). METHODS In a phase II randomized double-blind single-centre controlled trial, patients with predicted SAP were randomised to receive a daily infusion of fish oil containing lipid emulsion (Lipidem® 20%, BBraun) for 7 days (n = 23) or a daily infusion of a lipid emulsion without fish oil (Lipofundin® MCT 20%, BBraun) (n = 22). RESULTS On admission, both groups had comparable pancreatitis predicted severity and APACHE II scores. Administration of fish oil resulted in lower total blood leukocyte number (P = 0.04), CRP (P = 0.013), interleukin-8 (P = 0.05) and intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (P = 0.01) concentrations, multiple organ dysfunction score, sequential organ failure assessment score (P = 0.004), early warning score (P = 0.01), and systemic inflammatory response syndrome (P = 0.03) compared to the control group. The fish oil group had fewer new organ failures (P = 0.07), lower critical care admission rate (P = 0.06), shorter critical care stay (P = 0.03) and shorter total hospital stay (P = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS It is concluded that intravenous administration of a fish oil containing lipid emulsion, a source of omega-3 FA, improves clinical outcomes in patients with predicted SAP, benefits that may be linked to reduced inflammation.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The aims of this prospective population-based cohort study were to identify the patient and hospital characteristics associated with emergency cholecystectomy, and the influences of these in determining variations between hospitals.
Methods
Data were collected for consecutive patients undergoing cholecystectomy in acute UK and Irish hospitals between 1 March and 1 May 2014. Potential explanatory variables influencing the performance of emergency cholecystectomy were analysed by means of multilevel, multivariable logistic regression modelling using a two-level hierarchical structure with patients (level 1) nested within hospitals (level 2).
Results
Data were collected on 4744 cholecystectomies from 165 hospitals. Increasing age, lower ASA fitness grade, biliary colic, the need for further imaging (magnetic retrograde cholangiopancreatography), endoscopic interventions (endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography) and admission to a non-biliary centre significantly reduced the likelihood of an emergency cholecystectomy being performed. The multilevel model was used to calculate the probability of receiving an emergency cholecystectomy for a woman aged 40 years or over with an ASA grade of I or II and a BMI of at least 25·0 kg/m2, who presented with acute cholecystitis with an ultrasound scan showing a thick-walled gallbladder and a normal common bile duct. The mean predicted probability of receiving an emergency cholecystectomy was 0·52 (95 per cent c.i. 0·45 to 0·57). The predicted probabilities ranged from 0·02 to 0·95 across the 165 hospitals, demonstrating significant variation between hospitals.
Conclusion
Patients with similar characteristics presenting to different hospitals with acute gallbladder pathology do not receive comparable care.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Mediators derived from the n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) arachidonic acid oxidation have been shown to have tumour promoting effects in experimental models, while n-3 PUFAs are thought to be protective. Here we report fatty acid concentrations in hepatic colorectal metastases compared to liver tissue without tumour in humans. METHODS Twenty patients with colorectal liver metastasis were randomized to receive a 72 h infusion of parenteral nutrition with or without n-3 PUFAs. Histological samples from liver metastases and liver tissue without tumour were obtained from 15 patients at the time of their subsequent liver resection (mean 8 days (range 4-12) post-infusion) and the fatty acid composition determined by gas chromatography. RESULTS There were no significant differences in fatty acid composition between the two intervention groups. When data from all patients were combined, liver tissue without tumour had a higher content of both n-3 and n-6 PUFAs and a lower content of oleic acid and total n-9 fatty acids compared with tumour tissue (p<0.0001, 0.0002,<0.0001 and <0.0001, respectively). The n-6/n-3 PUFA ratio was found to be higher in tumour tissue than tissue without tumour (p<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Hepatic colorectal adenocarcinoma metastases have a higher content of n-9 fatty acids and a lower content of n-6 and n-3 PUFAs than liver tissue without tumour.

Abstract
Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, in particular eicosapentaenoic acid, and docosahexaenoic acid have been shown to have multiple beneficial antitumour actions that affect the essential alterations that dictate malignant growth. In this review we explore the putative mechanisms of action of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid in cancer protection in relation to self-sufficiency in growth signals, insensitivity to growth-inhibitory signals, apoptosis, limitless replicative potential, sustained angiogenesis, and tissue invasion, and how these will hopefully translate from bench to bedside.

Abstract
Background Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are functionally the most important omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Oral supply of these fatty acids increases their levels in plasma and cell membranes, often at the expense of the omega-6 PUFAs arachidonic acid (ARA) and linoleic acid. This results in an altered pattern of lipid mediator production to one which is less pro-inflammatory. We investigated whether short term intravenous supply of omega-3 PUFAs could change the levels of EPA, DHA, ARA and linoleic acid in plasma and erythrocytes in patients with hepatic colorectal metastases. Methods Twenty patients were randomised to receive a 72 hour infusion of total parenteral nutrition with (treatment group) or without (control group) omega-3 PUFAs. EPA, DHA, ARA and linoleic acid were measured in plasma phosphatidylcholine (PC) and erythrocytes at several times points up to the end of infusion and 5 to 12 days (mean 9 days) after stopping the infusion. Results The treatment group showed increases in plasma PC EPA and DHA and erythrocyte EPA and decreases in plasma PC and erythrocyte linoleic acid, with effects most evident late in the infusion period. Plasma PC and erythrocyte EPA and linoleic acid all returned to baseline levels after the 5–12 day washout. Plasma PC DHA remained elevated above baseline after washout. Conclusions Intravenous supply of omega-3 PUFAs results in a rapid increase of EPA and DHA in plasma PC and of EPA in erythrocytes. These findings suggest that infusion of omega-3 PUFAs could be used to induce a rapid effect especially in targeting inflammation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of this review is to summarize the available evidence for changes in bile composition following liver surgery and assess their use in predicting post-operative complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS A literature search was undertaken for all studies focusing on bile composition, bile volume and analysis. Articles were selected from MEDLINE, Embase and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases up to May 2009. RESULTS Low values of pre-operative bilirubin diglucuronide predict reduced post-operative liver function and the occurrence of jaundice. Low concentrations of hepatocyte growth factor and interleukin-6 in bile following surgery are associated with the subsequent development of liver failure and are probably surrogate markers for situations where the resultant hepatic regeneration is inadequate. CONCLUSIONS Analysis of the composition and quality of bile is probably underused as a tool for the pre-operative screening and early post-operative monitoring of patients at high risk of developing liver failure following major hepatobiliary procedures.
