Avoid creating questions that (i) can't be answered correctly without actually understanding the passage and (ii) uses the same words or phrases given in the passage.

Q: For patients receiving endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), there is urgent need pertaining to the prevention of postoperative bleeding. We conducted a retrospective propensity score-matched study that evaluated whether pre-ESD gastric lavage prevents postoperative bleeding after ESD for gastric neoplasms.', 'From September 2002 to October 2015, the 760 consecutive patients receiving ESD for gastric neoplasm were enrolled and data regarding them were retrospectively analyzed. All patients received conventional preventive treatment against delayed bleeding after ESD, including the administration of proton pump inhibitor and preventive coagulation of visible vessels, at the end of the ESD procedure.', 'Pre-ESD risk factors for postoperative bleeding included tumor size and no gastric lavage. Using multivariate analysis tumor size >2.0 cm (HR 2.90, 95% CI 1.65-5.10, p = 0.0002) and no gastric lavage (HR 3.20, 95% CI 1.13-9.11, p = 0.029) were found to be independent risk factors. Next, we evaluated the effect of gastric lavage on the prevention of post-ESD bleeding using a propensity score-matching method. A total of 284 subjects (142 per group) were selected. Adjusted odds ratio of gastric lavage for post-ESD bleeding was 0.25 (95% CI 0.071-0.886, p = 0.032).

Q: To determine whether obese patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery within an enhanced recovery program had worse short-term outcomes.', 'A prospective study of consecutive patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal resection was carried out between 2008 and 2011 in a single institution. Patients were divided in groups based on body mass index (BMI). Short-term outcomes including operative data, length of stay, complications and readmission rates were recorded and compared between the groups. Continuous data were analysed using t-test or one-way Analysis of Variance. χ(2) test was used to compare categorical data.', 'Two hundred and fifty four patients were included over the study period. The majority of individuals (41.7%) recruited were of a healthy weight (BMI < 25), whilst 50 patients were classified as obese (19.6%). Patients were matched in terms of the presence of co-morbidities and previous abdominal surgery. Obese patients were found to have a statistically significant difference in The American Society of Anesthesiologists grade. Length of surgery and intra-operative blood loss were no different according to BMI.

A: Do obese patients have similar short-term outcomes to non-obese in laparoscopic colorectal surgery?

Q: To assess prospectively the impact of psychiatric disorders on risk for exacerbations. The course of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is punctuated by acute exacerbations. Although anxiety and mood disorders are common in patients with COPD, no studies have assessed prospectively the association between these disorders and exacerbations.', "Psychiatric disorders were evaluated by a structured psychiatric interview in 110 patients (51% women, age (mean +/- standard deviation) = 66 +/- 8 years) with stable COPD and previous admission for exacerbations recruited from two outpatient clinics. Patients were followed for a mean of 2 years and both inpatient-treated (i.e., treated in the emergency department or hospital) and outpatient-treated (i.e., treated with medication in the patient's own environment) exacerbations were recorded.", 'Independent of covariates, patients with psychiatric disorders exhibited a significantly higher weighted annual rate of exacerbations treated in an outpatient setting after adjustment for covariates (3 versus 2, p = .003) than patients without psychiatric disorders, but no difference in exacerbations treated in the inpatient setting. They were also at a higher risk for any (relative risk (RR) = 1.56, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) = 1.02-2.37) and outpatient (RR = 1.68, 95% CI = 1.08-2.59) exacerbations, but not inpatient exacerbations (RR = 1.36, 95% CI = 0.82-2.25).

Are chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients with psychiatric disorders at greater risk of exacerbations?
