    Abstract Desmoid tumor (DT) is a rare neoplasm characterized by the proliferation of myofibroblastic cells that infiltrates and invades adjacent tissues. Due to its locally aggressive and recurrent nature, DT often causes local symptoms and can be challenging to manage clinically. Therefore, identifying biomarkers that can predict the progression of DT and guide treatment decisions is critical. This review summarizes several biomarkers that have been implicated in active surveillance (AS) and the prediction of postoperative recurrence and attempts to elucidate their underlying mechanisms. Some of these novel markers could provide prognostic value for clinicians, and ultimately help facilitate optimal and accurate therapeutic decisions for DT.

    Abstract Background: Previous studies have shown that open pancreatic necrosectomy for infected pancreatic necrosis was associated with high morbidity and mortality. However, these results were mostly concluded from historical cohorts with traditional early necrosectomy in the absence of a minimally invasive step-up approach.
    Objective: To explore the value of contemporary open pancreatic necrosectomy for infected pancreatic necrosis in the minimally invasive era.
    Methods: A post hoc analysis was performed in a prospective maintained database of 320 patients with infected pancreatic necrosis from January 2011 to December 2022 at a large Chinese tertiary hospital.
    Results: A total of 320 patients with infected pancreatic necrosis received either a minimally invasive step-up approach (245, 76.6%) or open pancreatic necrosectomy (75, 23.4%), which included upfront open pancreatic necrosectomy (32, 10.0%) and salvage open pancreatic necrosectomy (43, 13.4%). Upfront open pancreatic necrosectomy was associated with similar morbidity and mortality rates but fewer surgical interventions compared with a minimally invasive step-up approach. However, salvage open pancreatic necrosectomy was associated with significantly higher mortality (48.8% vs 18.8%, P = .007), gastrointestinal fistula (44.2% vs 18.8%, P = .021), hemorrhage (48.8% vs 15.6%, P = .003), and intensive care unit stay (25 vs 7 days, P = .040) compared with upfront open pancreatic necrosectomy. Multivariate analysis suggested that multiple organ failure (hazard ratio = 5.1; 95% confidence interval, 1.4-18.2, P = .013) and synchronous critical acute pancreatitis (hazard ratio = 3.0; 95% confidence interval, 1.1-8.6, P = .040) were 2 independent risk factors of death for patients who received open pancreatic necrosectomy.
    Conclusion: Patients undergoing upfront open pancreatic necrosectomy received fewer surgical interventions with comparable efficacy compared to the minimally invasive step-up approach. Salvage open pancreatic necrosectomy was potentially lifesaving, though it carried high morbidity and mortality. Multiple organ failure and synchronous critical acute pancreatitis were 2 independent risk factors of death for patients who received open pancreatic necrosectomy.

    Abstract Background: Various serum markers for early identification of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) have been studied. Serum macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) was reported to be correlated with severity of acute pancreatitis (AP) based on the 1992 Atlanta classification. However, MIF has never been proven to be predictive of disease severity based on the revised Atlanta classification (RAC). The potential predictive value of MIF needs to be further validated.
    Methods: Consecutive patients with AP within 48 h after symptom onset and 10 healthy control volunteers were enrolled prospectively. Serum MIF levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The predictive value of MIF, clinical scores and other serum markers were determined.
    Results: Among 143 patients with AP, there were 52 (36.4%), 65 (45.5%) and 26 (18.1%) with mild, moderate and severe disease based on the RAC respectively. Compared with healthy volunteers, serum levels of MIF were significantly higher in AP patients, especially those with SAP (P < 0.001). Multivariate regression analysis indicated that increased serum MIF (cut-off 2.30 ng/ml, OR = 3.16, P = 0.008), IL-6 (cut-off 46.8 pg/ml, OR = 1.21, P = 0.043), APACHE II score (cut-off 7.5, OR = 2.57, P = 0.011) and BISAP score (cut-off 1.5, OR = 1.01, P = 0.038) were independent risk factors for predicting SAP (P < 0.05). By using the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC), MIF (AUC 0.950) demonstrated more excellent discriminative power for predicting SAP than APACHE II (AUC 0.899), BISAP (AUC 0.886), and IL-6 (AUC 0.826).
    Conclusions: Serum MIF is a valuable early marker for predicting the severity of AP based on the RAC.

    Abstract Objectives: Emphysematous pancreatitis (EP) is a subtype of infectious pancreatic necrosis (IPN). It is characterized by the accumulation of gas inside or around the pancreatic necrotic tissue. This study aims to investigate the relation between classification and prognosis of EP, and to provide guidance for clinical diagnosis and treatment of IPN.
    Methods: A prospective cohort of 228 cases of IPN from January 2010 to June 2020 in the Department of General Surgery of Xiangya Hospital, Central South University were analyzed. Among them, 120 cases without peritoneal/retroperitoneal surgical intervention before admission were included. The 120 cases of IPN were classified into the EP group and the non-EP group. The general clinical information and results of pathogenic microorganism between the EP and the non-EP group were compared. EP patients were divided into early-EP (within 2 weeks of onset) and late-EP (after 2 weeks of onset) according to the presence timing of air bubble sign, and they were divided into extensive-EP and common-EP according to the distribution characteristics of bubble sign. The clinical characteristics between the survivors and non-survivors of both IPN and EP were compared.
    Results: Among the 120 IPN patients, 25 (20.8%) were EP patients and 95 (79.2%) were non-EP patients. According to the classifications, 8 were early-EP (32.0%) and 17 were late-EP (68.0%); 15 were common-EP (60.0%) and 10 were extensive-EP (40.0%). There was no significant difference in gender, age, etiology, and mortality between the EP group and the non-EP group (all
    Conclusions: Air bubble sign is not associated with the prognosis of IPN. Early- and extensive-EP often indicate worse prognosis. Aggressive surgical intervention based on step-up approach should be considered with priority.

    Abstract Abstract: Background: Numerous studies have shown that pyroptosis is associated with sepsis progression, which can lead to dysregulated host immune responses and organ dysfunction. Therefore, investigating the potential prognostic and diagnostic values of pyroptosis in patients with sepsis is essential. Methods: We conducted a study using bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) from the Gene Expression Omnibus database to examine the role of pyroptosis in sepsis. Univariate logistic analysis, least absolute shrinkage, and selection operator regression analysis were used to identify pyroptosis-related genes (PRGs), construct a diagnostic risk score model, and evaluate the selected genes' diagnostic value. Consensus clustering analysis was used to identify the PRG-related sepsis subtypes with varying prognoses. Functional and immune infiltration analyses were used to explain the subtypes' distinct prognoses, and scRNA-seq data were used to differentiate immune-infiltrating cells and macrophage subsets and study cell-cell communication. Results: A risk model was established based on 10 key PRGs ( NAIP , ELANE , GSDMB , DHX9 , NLRP3 , CASP8 , GSDMD , CASP4 , APIP , and DPP9 ), of which four ( ELANE , DHX9 , GSDMD , and CASP4 ) were associated with prognosis. Two subtypes with different prognoses were identified based on the key PRG expressions. Functional enrichment analysis revealed diminished nucleotide oligomerization domain-like receptor pathway activity and enhanced neutrophil extracellular trap formation in the subtype with a poor prognosis. Immune infiltration analysis suggested a different immune status between the two sepsis subtypes, with the subtype with a poor prognosis exhibiting stronger immunosuppression. The single-cell analysis identified a macrophage subpopulation characterized by gasdermin D (GSDMD) expression that may be involved in pyroptosis regulation, which was associated with the prognosis of sepsis. Conclusion: We developed and validated a risk score for sepsis identification based on 10 PRGs, four of which also have potential value in the prognosis of sepsis. We identified a subset of gasdermin D macrophages associated with poor prognosis, providing new insights into the role of pyroptosis in sepsis.
