Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is frequent after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Several RCTs have explored operative strategies to minimize DGE, however, the optimal combination of gastric resection approach, anastomotic route, configuration and the use of enteroenterostomy remains unclear.

MEDLINE, Embase and CENTRAL databases were systematically searched for RCTs comparing gastric resection (classic Whipple, pylorus-resecting, pylorus-preserving), anastomotic route (antecolic, retrocolic), configuration (loop gastroenterostomy/Billroth II, Roux-en-Y), and use of enteroenterostomy (Braun). A random-effects, Bayesian network meta-analysis with non-informative priors was conducted to determine the optimal combination of approaches to PD for minimizing DGE.

Twenty-four RCTs, including 2526 patients and 14 approaches were included. There was some heterogeneity, although inconsistency was low. The overall incidence of DGE was 25.6 per cent (647 patients). Pylorus-resecting, antecolic, Billroth II with Braun enteroenterostomy was associated with the lowest rates of DGE and ranked the best in 35 per cent of comparisons. Classic Whipple, retrocolic, Billroth II with Braun ranked the worst for DGE in 32 per cent of comparisons. BMS-265246 research buy Pairwise meta-analysis of retrocolic versus antecolic route for gastrojejunostomy found increased risk of DGE with the retrocolic route (odds ratio 2.10, 95 per cent credibility interval (cr.i.) 0.92 to 4.70). Pairwise meta-analysis of enteroenterostomy found a trend towards lower DGE rates when this was used (odds ratio 1.90, 95 per cent cr.i. 0.92 to 3.90). Having a Braun enteroenterostomy ranked the best in 96 per cent of comparisons.

Based on existing RCT evidence, a pylorus-resecting, antecolic, Billroth II with Braun enteroenterostomy seems to be associated with the lowest rates of DGE.

We describe a practical approach to immediate adverse events after the first dose of the SARS-CoV2 mRNA vaccines, focusing on allergic reactions with respect to their diagnosis and management.
Socioeconomic status is a strong predictor of cardiovascular health. The aim of this study was to describe the immediate and long-term effects of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) across socioeconomic strata in elderly cardiac patients in Europe.

The observational EU-CaRE study is a prospective study with eight CR sites in seven European countries. Patients ≥65 years with coronary heart disease or heart valve surgery participating in CR were consecutively included. Data were obtained at baseline, end of CR and at one-year follow up. Educational level as a marker for socioeconomic status was divided into basic, intermediate and high. The primary endpoint was exercise capacity (peak oxygen consumption (VO2peak)). Secondary endpoints were cardiovascular risk factors, medical treatment and scores for depression, anxiety and quality of life (QoL). A total of 1626 patients were included; 28% had basic, 48% intermediate and 24% high education. A total of 1515 and 1448 patients were available for follow-up analyses at end of CR and one-year, respectively. Patients with basic education were older and more often female. At baseline we found a socioeconomic gradient in VO2peak, lifestyle-related cardiovascular risk factors, anxiety, depression and QoL. The socioeconomic gap in VO2peak increased following CR (p for interaction <0.001). The socioeconomic gap in secondary outcomes was unaffected by CR. The use of evidence-based medication was good in all socioeconomic groups.

We found a strong socioeconomic gradient in VO2peak and cardiovascular risk factors that was unaffected or worsened after CR. To address inequity in cardiovascular health, the individual adaption of CR according to socioeconomic needs should be considered.

To estimate the extent of and the reasons for ineligibility in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients included in the EUSTAR database, and to determine the association between patient's features and generalizability of study results.

We searched Clinicaltrials.gov for all records on interventional SSc-RCTs registered from January 2013 to January 2018. Two reviewers selected studies, and information on the main trial features were retrieved. Data from 8046 patients having a visit in the EUSTAR database since 2013 were used to check patient's eligibility. The proportion of potentially eligible patients per trial, and the risk factors for ineligibility were analyzed. Complete-, worst- and best-case analyses were performed.

Of the 37 RCTs included, 43% were conducted in Europe, 35% were industry-funded, and 87% investigated pharmacological treatments. Ninety-one percent of 8046 patients included could have participated in at least one RCT. In complete-case analysis, the median [range] proportion of eligible patients having the main organ complication targeted by each study was 60% [10-100] in the overall sample of trials, ranging from 50% [32-79] for trials on skin fibrosis to 90% [34-77] for those targeting Raynaud's phenomenon. Among the criteria checked, treatment- and safety-related but not demographic were the main barriers to patient's recruitment. Older age, absence of Raynaud's phenomenon, and lower mRSS were independently associated with the failure to fulfill criteria for any of the included studies.

Patient's representativeness in SSc-RCTs is highly variable and is driven more by treatment- and safety-related rather than demographic criteria.
