Abstract
This article is a comment on the article by Jia et al, aiming at establishing a predictive model to predict the occurrence of preoperative gastric retention in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography preparation. We share our perspectives on this predictive model. First, further differentiation in predicting the severity of gastric retention could enhance clinical outcomes. Second, we ponder whether this predictive model can be generalized to predictions of gastric retention before various endoscopic procedures. Third, large datasets and prospective clinical validation are needed to improve the prediction model.
Core Tip: Jia et al conducted a retrospective analysis of patients undergoing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography preparation, identified factors influencing preoperative gastric retention, and developed a predictive model for its occurrence. We have three key points to share after reading this enlightening paper.
