TLDR
There is no evidence that surgical cystogastrostomy is superior for pancreatic pseudocyst drainage, however, endoscopic treatment was associated with shorter hospital stays, better physical and mental health of patients, and lower cost.About:

TL;DR: Clinical success is best achieved in patients undergoing closure of perforations or leaks when OTSC is used for primary or rescue therapy, and type of defect is the best predictor of successful long-term closure.

Treatment of severe acute pancreatitis and its complications.
TL;DR: In the majority of cases, sterile necrosis should be managed conservatively, whereas in infected necrotizing pancreatitis, the infected non-vital solid tissue should be removed to control the sepsis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) for pancreatic fluid collection (PFC) drainage: may not be business as usual.
TL;DR: In an ongoing randomised trial, serious adverse events that included delayed bleeding, buried stent syndrome and biliary stricture that necessitated a change in the management protocol for patients with PFC treated with LAMS were observed.

Safety and efficacy of endoscopic ultrasound-guided drainage of pancreatic fluid collections with lumen-apposing covered self-expanding metal stents.
Raj J. Shah,Janak N. Shah,Irving Waxman,Thomas E. Kowalski,Andres Sanchez-Yague,Jose Nieto,Brian C. Brauer,Monica Gaidhane,Michel Kahaleh +8 more
TL;DR: Advantages of LACSEMSs over other stents include single-step deployment and the ability to perform endoscopic debridement with minimal stent migration, as well as 50% or more reduction in PFCs.

Non-superiority of lumen-apposing metal stents over plastic stents for drainage of walled-off necrosis in a randomised trial.
Ji Young Bang,Udayakumar Navaneethan,Muhammad K. Hasan,Bryce Sutton,Robert H. Hawes,Shyam Varadarajulu +5 more
TL;DR: There was no significant difference in treatment outcomes between LAMS and plastic stents for WON drainage and to minimise adverse events, patients should undergo follow-up imaging and stent removal at 3 weeks if WON has resolved.

Classification of acute pancreatitis—2012: revision of the Atlanta classification and definitions by international consensus
Peter A. Banks,Thomas L. Bollen,Christos Dervenis,Hein G. Gooszen,Colin D. Johnson,Michael G. Sarr,Gregory G. Tsiotos,Santhi Swaroop Vege +7 more
TL;DR: This international, web-based consensus provides clear definitions to classify acute pancreatitis using easily identified clinical and radiologic criteria and should encourage widespread adoption.

Comparison of methods for the scoring and statistical analysis of SF-36 health profile and summary measures: summary of results from the Medical Outcomes Study
John E. Ware,Mark Kosinski,Martha S. Bayliss,Colleen A. McHorney,William H. Rogers,Anastasia E. Raczek +5 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that the two summary measures may be useful in most studies and that their empiric validity, relative to the best SF-36 scale, will depend on the application.

ASA classification and perioperative variables as predictors of postoperative outcome.
TL;DR: It is concluded that ASA physical status classification was a predictor of postoperative outcome using both univariate analysis and calculation of the odds ratio of the risk of developing a postoperative complication by means of a logistic regression model.

Analysis of cost data in randomized trials: an application of the non-parametric bootstrap.
Julie Barber,Simon G. Thompson +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown how the non-parametric bootstrap provides a more flexible alternative for comparing arithmetic mean costs between randomized groups, avoiding the assumptions which limit other methods.
