Age-adjusted charlson comorbidity index score as predictor of prolonged postoperative ileus in patients with colorectal cancer who underwent surgical resection

Comorbidities had considerable effects on the development of postoperative ileus (POI). The primary aim of the present study was to determine the influence of the age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index (ACCI) score on the risk of prolonged POI in patients with colorectal cancer who underwent surgical resection. Using the electronic Hospitalization Summary Reports, we identified 11,397 patients...

Age-Adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index Scores as Predictor of Survival in Colorectal Cancer Patients Who Underwent Surgical Resection and Chemoradiation

We studied the effect of Age-Adjusted Comorbidity Index Score in colorectal cancer patients who underwent similarly aggressive treatment. Using the National Health Insurance Research Database of Taiwan, we identified 5643 patients with colorectal cancer who underwent surgical resection and chemoradiation from 2007 through 2011. We estimated survival according to Age-Adjusted Comorbidity Index S...

Age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index score as predictor of survival of patients with digestive system cancer who have undergone surgical resection

Comorbidities have considerable effects on survival outcomes. The primary objective of this retrospective study was to examine the association between age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index (ACCI) score and postoperative in-hospital mortality in patients with digestive system cancer who have undergone surgical resection of their cancers. Using electronic hospitalization summary reports, we ide...

Correction: Adjusted Age-Adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index Score as a Risk Measure of Perioperative Mortality before Cancer Surgery

BACKGROUND Identification of patients at risk of death from cancer surgery should aid in preoperative preparation. The purpose of this study is to assess and adjust the age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index (ACCI) to identify cancer patients with increased risk of perioperative mortality. METHODS We identified 156,151 patients undergoing surgery for one of the ten common cancers between 200...
