Abstract:
Aim: To explore the relationship between inflammatory markers and prolonged postoperative ileus (PPOI), and to establish a nomogram for predicting PPOI. Patients & methods: The data of 229 patients were analyzed retrospectively. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the risk factors affecting the occurrence of PPOI. The predictive model of PPOI was established and verified internally. Results: Postoperative PPOI occurred in 87 (38.0%) of all 229 patients. Our study showed that age, preoperative neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and changes in neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio were independent risk factors for PPOI. Conclusion: The nomograms established based on these independent risk factors have good predictive efficacy and may be able to guide clinicians to individualize the diagnosis and treatment.

01:30Inflammatory Bowel Disease II: Crohn's Disease
Inflammatory bowel disease, commonly known as IBD, refers to a collection of disorders that lead to persistent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. The two types of IBD are ulcerative colitis, which impacts the colon, and Crohn's disease, which can involve any part of the gastrointestinal segment.
Crohn's disease
Crohn's disease is a chronic, systemic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that predominantly affects the gastrointestinal tract. It is marked by...

Inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, encompasses a group of disorders characterized by chronic inflammation or ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract.
Risk Factors
The exact cause of IBD remains unclear, although it is believed to be due to a mix of genetic, environmental, microbial, and immune factors. Genetic factors are significant in determining susceptibility to IBD, with family history being a critical risk factor. Individuals with a first-degree relative who has IBD are at...
