Abstract Background Acute pancreatitis, a prevalent gastrointestinal condition, frequently necessitates hospitalization and is associated with potential adverse in-hospital outcomes. Recent data showed the detrimental effects of COVID-19 infection on acute pancreatitis, particularly in patients with severe COVID-19 infections. However, limited information exists on the specific impacts of COVID-19 infection in patients hospitalized for acute pancreatitis. Methods We analyzed the 2020 U.S. National Inpatient Sample (NIS) to investigate the effects of COVID-19 infection on cases primarily admitted due to acute pancreatitis. Participants aged 18 and above were identified using relevant ICD-10 CM codes. Adjusted odds ratios (aORs) for specified outcomes were calculated through multivariable logistic and linear regression analyses. The primary outcome was inpatient mortality, with secondary outcomes including system-based complications. Statistical significance was established at a P value of 0.05. Results We identified 252,435 patients with a primary discharge diagnosis of acute pancreatitis. The mean age was 50.1 years; 48.6% were female. Caucasians accounted for 41%, followed by Hispanics. Of these, 1.05% (2,675/252,435) had a concurrent diagnosis of COVID-19 infection. In a survey multivariable logistic and linear regression model adjusting for patient and hospital factors, COVID-19 infection was associated with higher in-hospital mortality (aOR 3.71; 95% CI 2.01, 6.84, P < 0.001), prolonged length of stay (β LOS 1.05; 95% CI 0.46, 1.64, P < 0.001), increased hospitalization charge ( β charge 9,327; 95% CI 820, 17834, P < 0.001), and acute respiratory failure (aOR 2.49; 95% CI 1.75, 3.53, P < 0.001), We observed non-significant, but increased, risks of shock, acute kidney injury (AKI), pancreatic pseudocyst, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and mechanical ventilation in COVID-19 positive patients. Conclusion In conclusion, our study underscores that COVID-19 infection is associated with higher in-hospital mortality, prolonged hospital stays, and increased incidence of acute respiratory failure in patients diagnosed with acute pancreatitis. Future longitudinal studies are warranted to comprehensively assess the long-term health sequelae in this population. Disclosures All Authors: No reported disclosures

Abstract Background Acute diverticulitis, a prevalent gastrointestinal condition, frequently necessitates hospitalization and is associated with potential adverse in-hospital outcomes. Recent data showed the detrimental effects of COVID-19 infection on acute diverticulitis, particularly in patients with severe COVID-19 infections. However, limited information exists on the specific impacts of COVID-19 infection in patients hospitalized for acute diverticulitis. Methods We analyzed the 2020 U.S. National Inpatient Sample (NIS) to investigate the effects of COVID-19 infection on cases primarily admitted due to acute diverticulitis. Participants aged 18 and above were identified using relevant ICD-10 CM codes. Adjusted odds ratios (aORs) for specified outcomes were calculated through multivariable logistic and linear regression analyses. The primary outcome was inpatient mortality, with secondary outcomes including system-based complications. Statistical significance was established at a P value of 0.05. Results We identified 167,170 patients with a primary discharge diagnosis of acute pancreatitis. The mean age was 60.1 years; 56.8% were female. Caucasians accounted for the majority, followed by Hispanics. Of these, 0.90% (1,504/167,170) had a concurrent diagnosis of COVID-19 infection. In a survey multivariable logistic and linear regression model adjusting for patient and hospital factors, COVID-19 infection was associated with higher in-hospital mortality (aOR 8.43; 95% CI 4.32, 16.42, P < 0.001), prolonged length of stay (β LOS 2.02; 95% CI 1.27, 2.77, P < 0.001) and increased hospitalization charge ( β charge 17,813.27; 95% CI 4,080, 31,546, P < 0.001), We observed non-significant, but increased, risks of shock, acute kidney injury (AKI), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and mechanical ventilation in COVID-19 positive patients. Conclusion In conclusion, our study revealed that COVID-19 infection is associated with higher in-hospital mortality, prolonged hospital stays, and increased hospitalization charges in patients diagnosed with acute diverticulitis. Future longitudinal studies are warranted to comprehensively assess the long-term health sequelae in this population. Disclosures All Authors: No reported disclosures

Background Gastrointestinal cancers comprise nearly one-third of global mortality from cancer, yet the comprehensive global burden of these cancers remains uninvestigated. Objective We aimed to assess the global, regional and national burden of gastrointestinal cancers. Designs Data on oesophagus, gastric, colorectal, liver, pancreas and biliary tract cancers were extracted from the Global Burden of Disease 2021 database. Age-standardised incidence rate (ASIR) and age-standardised death rate (ASDR) were calculated by sex, region and Sociodemographic Index (SDI). Results In 2021, there were 5.26 million incidences and 3.70 million deaths from gastrointestinal cancer. The greatest burden is from colorectal, followed by gastric, oesophageal, pancreatic, liver and biliary tract cancer. We noted geographical and socioeconomic differences in ASIR and ASDR across all types of cancers. From 2000 to 2021, ASIR increased for colorectal cancer (annual percent change (APC): 0.10%, 95% CI 0.05% to 0.14%), pancreatic cancer (APC: 0.27%, 95% CI 0.14% to 0.41%), and liver cancer from metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (APC: 0.62%, 95% CI 0.58% to 0.67%) and alcohol-related liver disease (APC: 0.26%, 95% CI 0.22% to 0.30%). ASDR increased for pancreatic cancer (APC: 0.18%, 95% CI 0.02% to 0.34%). Higher SDI countries had higher incidence rates for most types of gastrointestinal cancer. Conclusions Although the ASIR of oesophageal, gastric and biliary tract cancer has decreased, the ASIR still increased in colorectal, pancreatic and liver cancer from steatotic liver disease. Public policies are important for controlling gastrointestinal cancers—most importantly, reducing alcohol consumption, hepatitis B immunisation and tackling the burden of metabolic diseases.

81 Background: Recent data suggest an association between cardiovascular disease burden and biliary cancer patients. However, the outcomes of hospitalized patients for biliary-pancreatic malignancy with concurrent acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) are not well understood. Therefore, our objective is to assess the impact of ADHF on patients hospitalized for biliary-pancreatic malignancy. Methods: We used the 2020 U.S. National Inpatient Sample (NIS) to study patients hospitalized for biliary tract and pancreatic malignancy with concurrent acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) identified by ICD-10 CM codes. Adjusted odds ratios (aORs) for predefined outcomes were determined via multivariable logistic and linear regression analyses. The primary outcome examined was inpatient mortality, while secondary outcomes included complications related to various body systems. Results: We identified 43,009 patients with a primary discharge diagnosis of biliary tract and pancreatic cancer. The mean age was 68.5 years; 49.4% were female. Caucasians accounted for 68%, followed by Hispanics (13%). Of these, 6.27% (3,699/43,009) had a concurrent diagnosis of heart failure. In the survey's multivariable logistic and linear regression analysis, accounting for patient and hospital confounding factors, ADHF demonstrated significant associations with higher in-hospital mortality (aOR 1.63; 95% CI 1.09, 2.44, p = 0.015). In addition, a significant association between ADHF and various adverse in-hospital outcome was observed including prolonged mean length of stay (Beta 1.45; 95% CI 0.67, 2.24, p < 0.001), increased mean total hospital cost (Beta 3,757; 95% CI: 2,641, 36,630, p = 0.024), elevated risk of shock (aOR 2.75; 95% CI: 1.77, 4.26, p < 0.001), higher risk of sepsis (aOR 1.71, 95% CI: 1.09, 2.68, p = 0.018), increased risk of acute respiratory failure (aOR 3.18, 95% CI: 2.25, 4.51, p < 0.001), and heightened risk of acute kidney injury (aOR 1.57; 95% CI: 1.24, 1.99, p < 0.001). Conclusions: Among patients hospitalized for biliary-pancreatic malignancy, concurrent ADHF is linked to increased mortality risk and various in-hospital adverse complications. Additional long-term studies are required for a comprehensive understanding of this association.

80 Background: Disparities in health outcomes exist among racial and ethnic groups in the United States, notably in patients with colon cancer. Metastasis is the primary cause of cancer morbidity and mortality. However, data on the metastasis risks and clinical outcomes on hospitalized individuals with colon cancer is still limited. Therefore, we aim to assess the association between metastatic colon cancer and racial differences. Methods: We analyzed the 2020 U.S. National Inpatient Sample (NIS) to explore patients who have colon cancer as the primary diagnosis. Additionally, we identified evidence of metastasis, as recorded by ICD-10-CM. Adjusted odds ratios (aORs) for specified outcomes were calculated through multivariable logistic and linear regression analyses. The primary outcome was racial differences in organ metastasis and secondary outcomes included mortality and length of stay. Statistical significance was established at p-value of 0.05. Results: We identified 80,130 patients with primary diagnosis of colon cancer at discharge. The mean age was 67.4 years; 49.7% were female. Caucasians accounted for 69.3%, with African Americans at 13.3% and Hispanics at 8.2%. 15% of the patients had liver metastasis, whereas 22% had lung metastasis. In a multivariate analysis adjusting for patient, COVID-19, chemotherapy usage and hospital factors, African Americans had higher risk of lung metastasis (aOR 1.22; 95%CI (1.07, 1.40), p = 0.003), higher risk of liver metastasis (aOR 1.51; 95%CI (1.31, 1.74), p = 0.021) and longer length of stay (b = 0.95; 95%CI (0.56, 1.33), p = 0.001). Hispanics also had higher risk of lung (aOR 1.22, p < 0.05) and liver metastasis (aOR 1.24, p = 0.021). We observed an increase in risk of metastasis and mortality but non-statistically significant in some parameters and races, as shown in table provided. Conclusions: In conclusion, our study revealed that racial difference is associated with higher risk of metastasis, as well as other outcomes. To establish a causal relationship between races, metastasis, and mortality in patients with colon cancer, further longitudinal research is necessary. [Table: see text]

Background: Cirrhosis and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) are significant global health concerns, contributing to high mortality and morbidity. Haemodialysis (HD) is frequently used to treat ESKD in patients with cirrhosis. However, it often presents challenges such as haemodynamic instability during dialysis sessions, leading to less than optimal outcomes. Peritoneal dialysis (PD), while less commonly used in cirrhotic patients, raises concerns about the risks of peritonitis and mortality. Our systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess outcomes in PD patients with cirrhosis. Methods: We executed a comprehensive search in Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane databases up to 25 September 2023. The search focused on identifying studies examining mortality and other clinical outcomes in ESKD patients with cirrhosis receiving PD or HD. In addition, we sought studies comparing PD outcomes in cirrhosis patients to those without cirrhosis. Data from each study were aggregated using a random-effects model and the inverse-variance method. Results: Our meta-analysis included a total of 13 studies with 15,089 patients. Seven studies compared ESKD patients on PD with liver cirrhosis (2753 patients) against non-cirrhosis patients (9579 patients). The other six studies provided data on PD (824 patients) versus HD (1943 patients) in patients with cirrhosis and ESKD. The analysis revealed no significant difference in mortality between PD and HD in ESKD patients with cirrhosis (pooled odds ratio (OR) of 0.77; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.53–1.14). In PD patients with cirrhosis, the pooled OR for peritonitis compared to non-cirrhosis patients was 1.10 (95% CI: 1.03–1.18). The pooled ORs for hernia and chronic hypotension in cirrhosis patients compared to non-cirrhosis controls were 2.48 (95% CI: 0.08–73.04) and 17.50 (95% CI: 1.90–161.11), respectively. The pooled OR for transitioning from PD to HD among cirrhotic patients was 1.71 (95% CI: 0.76–3.85). Mortality in cirrhosis patients on PD was comparable to non-cirrhosis controls, with a pooled OR of 1.05 (95% CI: 0.53–2.10). Conclusions: Our meta-analysis demonstrates that PD provides comparable mortality outcomes to HD in ESKD patients with cirrhosis. In addition, the presence of cirrhosis does not significantly elevate the risk of mortality among patients undergoing PD. While there is a higher incidence of chronic hypotension and a slightly increased risk of peritonitis in cirrhosis patients on PD compared to those without cirrhosis, the risks of hernia and the need to transition from PD to HD are comparable between both groups. These findings suggest PD as a viable and effective treatment option for ESKD patients with cirrhosis.

Abstract INTRODUCTION Esophagogastroduodenoscopy is safe and beneficial in elderly patients. However, the association of dementia, which is a growing cause of mortality in the elderly, remains unexplored. We aim to understand the impact of dementia when EGD is utilized, in the elderly population group. METHODS We utilized the 2020 National Inpatient Sample to investigate records admitted with EGD utilization identified through ICD-10 CM codes. We divided records by the presence of dementia. Adjusted odds ratios (aORs) for predefined outcomes were determined using multivariable logistic and linear regression models, adjusting for comorbidities. The primary outcome assessed was inpatient mortality, while secondary outcomes included cost and length of stay, as well as other inpatient complications. RESULTS We identified 507,829 hospitalizations with ages more than 60. The mean age was 74.5 and males constituted 49.9%. In a survey multivariable logistic and linear regression model adjusting for patient and hospital factors, the presence of dementia is associated with lower inpatient mortality (aOR 0.79, 95%CI (0.68, 0.91), p = 0.002), lower hospitalization costs (beta coefficient -1,958, 95%CI (-2,653, -1,353), p <0.001), lower mechanical ventilation usage (aOR 0.87, 95%CI(0.78, 0.97), p < 0.001) but higher odds of mental status change (aOR 2.24, 95%CI (2.09, 2.40), p < 0.001) and longer length of stay (beta coefficient 0.52, 95%CI (0.30, 0.74), p <0.001),. Post-propensity matching revealed similar patterns. CONCLUSION The presence of dementia is associated with a lower risk of inpatient mortality, and other clinical outcomes, in hospitalization with EGD utilizations. Etiologies behind this relationship should be explored to understand this inverse relationship.

INTRODUCTION: Obesity is associated with cancer, including gastrointestinal (GI). Data from low (LICs) and lower-middle-income countries (MICs) are limited. METHODS: We utilized data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 to determine the mortality from GI cancer risk of high body mass index (BMI) in these countries. RESULTS: Mortality rates of GI cancers from high BMI increased in LICs and lower MICs, while burdens decreased or remained stable in high and middle-income countries. DISCUSSION: The GI cancer-related burden from high BMI increased in LICs and lower MICs, necessitating a concerted effort to tackle the obesity pandemic.
