RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC) is the result of the ongoing trend to minimally invasive of laparoscopy, but some surgeons thought that the SILC can increase the risk of bile duct injure or bile spillage, and the single-incision robotic cholecystectomy (SIRC) can overcome the drawbacks of SILC. Some articles described that the SIRC had longer operative time and more cost than SILC. The advantages and disadvantages of SIRC have still not been extensively studied. We aimed to investigate the outcomes of SIRC compared to SILC and evaluate the safety and feasibility of SIRC. METHODS: To find relevant studies, the electronic databases PubMed, MEDLINE, The Cochrane Library, and EMBASE were searched to seek information in English literature from 2011 to 2017. Studies comparing SIRC to SILC, for any indication, were included in the analysis. This systematic review and meta-analysis were performed with RevMan Version 5.3. RESULTS: Six comparative studies (nâ=â633 patients) were included in our analysis. The data showed that the SIRC and SILC had equivalent outcomes for operative time [mean difference (MD)â=â17.32, 95% confidence interval (CI): -8.93-43.57, Pâ=â.20], intraoperative complications [odd ratio (OR)â=â0.48, 95% CI: 0.17-1.39, Pâ=â.18], postoperative complications (ORâ=â0.62, 95% CI: 0.21-1.86, Pâ=â.39), hospital stay (MDâ=â-0.01, 95% CI: -0.21-0.19, Pâ=â.90), readmissions rate (ORâ=â0.70, 95% CI: 0.09-5.63, Pâ=â.74), and conversion rate (ORâ=â0.52, 95% CI: 0.14-1.96, Pâ=â.33), but total cost was statistically significant (MDâ=â3.7, 95% CI: 3.61-3.79, Pâ<â.00001). CONCLUSION: SIRC is a safe and feasible procedure for cholecystectomy, and the operative time is same as SILC, but the total cost of SIRC is significantly higher than SILC.

BACKGROUND: The benefits of the application of basiliximab induction therapy in liver transplantation are not clear. The present meta-analysis was to evaluate the pros and cons of basiliximab use in liver transplantation. DATA SOURCES: We searched the associated publications in English from July 1998 to December 2015 in the following databases: MEDLINE, PubMed, Ovid, EMBASE, Web of Science and Cochrane Library. RESULTS: Basiliximab significantly decreased the incidence of de novo diabetes mellitus after liver transplantation (RR=0.56; 95% CI: 0.34-0.91; P=0.02). Subgroup analysis showed that basiliximab in combination with steroids-free immunosuppressant significantly decreased the incidence of biopsy-proven acute rejection (RR=0.62; 95% CI: 0.39-0.97; P=0.04) and new-onset hypertension (RR=0.62; 95% CI: 0.42-0.93; P=0.02). CONCLUSIONS: Basiliximab may be effective in reducing de novo diabetes mellitus. What is more, basiliximab in combination with steroids-free immunosuppressant shows statistical benefit to reduce biopsy-proven acute rejection and de novo hypertension.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) with surgical re-resection (SRR) in patients with postoperative recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (RHCC) meeting the Milan criteria. METHODS: A literature search was performed to identify comparative studies addressing outcomes of both RFA and SRR for RHCC meeting the Milan criteria. Pooled odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated using either the fixed effects model or the random effects model. RESULTS: Five nonrandomized controlled trials were included in the analysis. These studies included a total of 543 patients: 243 treated with RFA and 300 treated with SRR. The SRR group had a better 3-year recurrence-free survival rate compared with RFA group (OR 0.44, 95%CI 0.25-0.77, p=0.004). However, there were no obvious differences between RFA and SRR group in overall survival (OS) rates, re-recurrence rate and OS rates with tumors ≤ 3cm. What's more, the RFA group had a safety advantage with less complications of Clavien classification grade II or higher compared with SRR group (OR 0.21, 95%CI 0.05-0.94, p=0.04). CONCLUSIONS: RFA seemed to be superior to SRR in the treatment of patients with RHCC meeting the Milan criteria on account of clinical safety. However, these findings have to be carefully interpreted due to the lower level of evidence.
