Characteristics and clinical outcomes of pediatric patients following massive bowel resection: A retrospective cohort study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: is a rare entity. Traditionally, children who have undergone MBR have higher mortality and less probability of achieving enteral autonomy compared to patients with less substantial bowel loss. The primary objective of this study was to determine the characteristics and clinical outcomes of pediatric patients following MBR. Secondary objectives included comparing patients who achieved enteral autonomy to those who remained parenteral nutrition (PN)-dependent to determine characteristics associated with PN independence. Methods: Retrospective cohort study of patients following MBR managed by our multidisciplinary intestinal rehabilitation program between January 1, 2006 and December 31, 2017, with an observation period ending December 31, 2021. Results: 61 patients with MBR fulfilled study inclusion criteria. 21 patients (34.4 %) achieved enteral autonomy while 40 patients (65.6 %) did not. Patients who achieved enteral autonomy had a greater percentage of residual small bowel (22 % vs 13 %, P < 0.01) and colon (100 % vs 50 %, P < 0.01). They were more likely to have an ICV (73.2 % vs 15 %, P < 0.01) and less likely to undergo STEP procedure (14.3 % vs 37.5 %, P = 0.02). 18 patients in the cohort without enteral autonomy achieved greater than 50 % enteral nutrition. In this cohort, the overall transplant rate was 9.8 % and mortality rate was 11.5 %. Conclusion: Several important advancements have occurred over the last two decades that have allowed more patients to reach their adaptive potential and mitigate complications of prolonged PN following MBR. Overall outcomes are better than previously reported.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
