Preoperative aerobic fitness is a predictor of postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy Open
Low preoperative aerobic fitness is prevalent in patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy and a predictor of impaired postoperative outcomes. Aerobic fitness should therefore be included in the preoperative work-up and optimized according…

The usefulness of the modified steep ramp test as a practical exercise test for preoperative risk assessment in patients scheduled for pancreatic surgery Open
The modified SRT is a valid short-term practical exercise test to preoperatively assess aerobic capacity in patients undergoing pancreatic surgery. A modified SRT performance below 2.1 W/kg seems clinically most suitable to select candidat…

Preoperative Anemia as a Prognostic Risk Factor for Inferior Oncological Survival Following Resection for Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Open
Objectives: A significant proportion of patients undergoing surgery for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) are anemic at the time of resection. In these patients, blood transfusions are omitted because of their potential negative impa…

View article: Impact of Preoperative Diabetes Mellitus on Postoperative Outcomes in Elective Pancreatic Surgery and Its Implications for Prehabilitation Practice
Impact of Preoperative Diabetes Mellitus on Postoperative Outcomes in Elective Pancreatic Surgery and Its Implications for Prehabilitation Practice Open
Objectives Patients with pancreatic disease(s) have a high risk of developing diabetes mellitus (DM). Diabetes mellitus is associated with adverse postoperative outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and effects of DM on …

Actual physical activity after major abdominal cancer surgery: Far from optimal Open
Postoperative physical activity is low in patients undergoing major abdominal cancer surgery and is linked to postoperative outcomes. Although physical activity should be encouraged in all patients, patient-specific risk factors were ident…

‘Effects of a home-based bimodal lifestyle intervention in frail patients with end-stage liver disease awaiting orthotopic liver transplantation’: study protocol of a non-randomised clinical trial Open
Introduction Patients with end-stage liver disease awaiting orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) are generally classified as frail due to disease-related malnutrition and a progressive decline in musculoskeletal and aerobic fitness, whic…

Cardiac and intramuscular adaptations following short-term exercise prehabilitation in unfit patients scheduled to undergo hepatic or pancreatic surgery: study protocol of a multinuclear MRI study Open
Introduction Short-term exercise prehabilitation programmes have demonstrated promising results in improving aerobic capacity of unfit patients prior to major abdominal surgery. However, little is known about the cardiac and skeletal muscl…
